Are Dubs/Lakers games doomed to slow endings?

Final score does not reflect those two stretches of truly horrible play in the second half, but I guess that's what shooting 63% on 41 3PA will mask.

What a time for Wiggins, Draymond, and CP3 to be in playoff form.

He has no answer for shotblockers without a foul call. He needs that 3 pt jumper in the off season. The defense is what it is.

Wiggins just might be a guy that is bored in the regular season and can just turn it on in important games. He's been fantastic during this must win stretch run. I don't know how valuable that is to the dubs next year.

It’s Jaxson Hayes. He’s pretty low on the rim defending totem pole. Like which western team does he matchup well with if he can’t even score around Jaxson Hayes?

Maybe okc and sac?

I kind of expected a let down spot since he should be ramping up, but man he was bad tonight.

Wiggins had a rough season but he was in and out and his struggles you can pin point to what happened.

Conditioning at the beginning of the season because of the ribs. Then he slammed a car door on his finger. Then he took that personal time out. So every time he was getting into rhythm he got taken out of it. But he’s finding his rhythm now and hopefully no more set backs going into the playoffs.

Wiggins is playing his best ball. Klay is playing his best ball. Just get into the playoffs and I like our chances.

For the last two seasons, I have felt like Wiggins should be a two game a week player, maybe 55 games per year.

The only concern heading to the play in / playoffs is Kuminga. He had his moments during the regular season, but is he ready for the playoffs?

As a Wiggins fan you can’t honestly believe your own line there about defence. Wiggins used to get roasted and had an abysmal reputation. Young players need reps. As did Wiggins.

People expecting every 21 year old to be on the same career trajectory as LeBron, Luka et al need to calm down. It’s the very reason players like TJD slip into the 2nd round when he should’ve been a 1st round selection. TJD still has room for development.

In Kuminga case, he’s shown the league what he can do and what his strengths are. The league has adjusted to that. Now he has the playoffs and Summer to come up with some counters.
