They’re wide open. Guys need to step up and make those shots. That’s what Championship teams do.


Going inside is what got us the lead though. Also keep in mind Joker has 5 fouls.

Why waste so much time bringing the ball up the court and identifying what you want to get to? Jesus man, run some action and get a damn quality look.

Please, draw up a play for Reaves!

I’d see if I can get the ball into Reaves or AD’s hands. We need an AD three like Game 2 in 2020 in the worst way.

Just flat out better team. Everything lined up but the Nuggets were too good for us.

Hate that play call. It can’t be LeBron there. It had to be someone else. Rui and AD both wide open.

Proud of how they went out

Explain what AD does on the last possession

How does he help the team?

Why not put in a sniper if we are going to treat AD like a sniper

Very good season for the Lakers, no one outside of Laker fans even think this team will be in the playoffs after that 2 8 start. At the end, Nuggets is just too good to this Lakers squad. Need to patch up and try again next year.

Joker literally showed that only Dwight Howard could stop him

AD will never have any chance
Joker will only get better

Hey we went from a 2-10 team, to the conference finals. We just ran outta gas. The hole we dug to start the season was to big to overcome and make it to the finish line. Still proud of our guys.

AD and 17 for wemby. Do it Mitch!
Warspite:

Prince + filler for Kobe Bryant
To be honest the way Prince has played and with Kobes injury/age/mileage Im not sure I would do that deal either. Still Prince is more important and he wins the head to head battles with Kobe.

Every game was winnable... Not sure how to be satisfied with this... Still think Ham out-coached himself this series.. He got locked into his shortened rotation and just refused to try anything.
Our strength during the season was our depth, Ham basically eliminated that strength... How does Vanderbilt not even play? I get he wasn't a huge offensive threat, but still... What about Bamba? Why not throw Beasley in for a few minutes?

Am I the only one who thinks Frank V might have had more success with this roster?
Never have rice at Hanzo's house...
