We had 1 block this game, that’s how successful that High PNR by Kerr was. We have to figure out something on that
Bro they scored 101 on 46/29%, did you watch a different game?
A lot of them were open misses. They’ve been scoring in the paint with AD outside, did you watch the game?
There is no way they get that many layups with AD in there
Teams consistently miss open shots against the Lakers. They are probably the only team that can survive giving wide open looks to guys like Curry and Klay. That’s the main reason I’ve been picking them to win it all since even before they made the trades.
I hope you are right, suns/nuggets/Celtics all look pretty scary, and we will need a better Lebron. Hope his foot can continue to progress
Yeah The Suns don’t have enough depth to challenge the Lakers and the Nuggets have been easy for the Lakers all season. With how well things have been going I think they have a pretty good chance of lucking into a broken down Miami being the Eastern Conference champion.
If the Warriors lose this series I think they are going to blow it up. Klay/Draymond will be dealt. I think they get rid of DDV, and rebuild around Curry, and their young guys. They’ll need to hope Poole bounces back bc they are stuck with him.
I’m really surprised Kuminga isn’t a player for them. He should be in their rotation
Nah they'll just trade Poole and get a better player for his contract. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

Steph definitely hasn't let down this series. But Klay has come up short. Which as I've said before given Klay's history he's done plenty before, BUT he usually has one monumental game that off-sets that, but in most Finals (bar the one with KD) he has been inefficient.
Poole was supposed to be insurance for that, but he's come up short too.
Despite the Warriors having Steph, Klay, Poole, Wiggins. Only Steph has shown up thus far. Whereas the Lakers have enough depth that different people have stepped up each game. AD being the catalyst of the others. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

I was wondering where Lonnie was late in the 3rd. I've said on many occasions I like Walker's game and thought he needed to get more burn. I also want to see more Rui.
Darvin is a puzzle but he's winning so critiques from wanna be coaches are just that critiques from wanna be coaches. I didn't think Rob was a good GM. He's proving me wrong. What he got for Westbrook was genus. It turned the season around. I thought Darvin's rotations were whack. He's proving me wrong. The timing of putting Rui, Schro and Lonnie in the lineup has been on the 1. I'm gonna still critique without gloom and doom but out of an armchair coach fan's concern.
I'm an elderly DIE HARD,RIDE OR DIE,LIFE LONGLAKERSFAN. I entreat the basketball gods to take it easy on my aging heart. I don't know if it can take many more games like last night. Please, Please, Please, Pretty Please close this out Wednesday. A close win will be fine but I don't know if I can weather another nail biter.
I apologize for my bloviated diatribe. I had to vent. I'm mind bloated after last nights game. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

That is why we need to close them out in game 5. We definitely dont want to see Legendary "Game Six Klay" back in LA.

You and me both Pops. I was on the verge of a heart attack for the last 30-40 minutes.
Oh man...from 2-10 to a win away from the WCF.
I know I’m late to this party but all of this^^^! If only they could all be like that 2001 run. I was at game 5 of the 1980 finals at 14, when my young heart could take this (bleep). _________________ "Time wounds all heels". -John Lennon
