What could’ve been if only Spo had put in KO earlier in the game. Before it got out of hand.
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

The season was lost when we didn’t sign Beasley.

Yeah, I get it .. Bam & Herro are part of our core going forward, so all of this is a good experience. We'll just live with the results. Should be a great 2021 season though ... so looking forward to it!

I’m ready for a proper offseason. Get these dudes out of the bubble and back to their families.

They balled out. I can live with this.

On a side note...need Bam to work on his shooting. Defense isnt respecting him at all. Davis just clogging the lane camping in there.

It was an amazing run. Super proud of these guys.

We got work to do. Going to be an interesting offseason.

Mental game was too much for us. Butler is a bit bipolar and missed the point on what I takes to win against a team with two major studs. Hope he learns from it. Looking forward to another player addition this offseason and more player development.

In need of ball-handler next season.

Rebounding must also get addressed.

That said, it's been a great season. Maybe the funnest team in franchise history.

I don't think yall understand how much this team overachieved. This roster is not nearly as talented as it has been made to be. We have some good pieces, but they are the type of good pieces that are amazing when they surrounded by a superstar (or superstars if you are the super team building gutless clown like Lebron).




We are not just Giannis or Embiid away from being on championship favorite level.

Nope. We achieved what we deserved. Jimmy showed how good he is and we took 2 wins off the best player ever with our 2nd and 3rd best player injured.

This Lakers team is the perfect defence. Fully fit they stop anyone.

We deserve to be considered a chance to beat anyone next year bar a fully fit Lakers.

Next year things get tougher but a big physical superstar takes us to the top tier

I didn't say anything about not deserving it. We played incredibly well as a team and deserved this little bit of success.

Still does not mean I am going to overrate the talent on the team like a lot of you are doing to feel better about the future. I am proud of what they did but this was a huge blown opportunity and it is not some lock that we get here again any time soon.

No one is overrating them. We’re not in the lakers tier but we’re good enough to be a big piece away from giving them trouble on our day. We have space to add the piece.

Until then we need a LOT of luck to go our way. That’s how it works


This Lakers team is fully fit, fully healthy vet heavy roster with two all time beasts. Things went their way this post season.

You can only hope to be there or thereabouts and see if luck goes your way in the post season. This year a lot went our way and catapulted us to the finals- some of that was the development of great looking young prospects. Other factors were Jimmy being great, solid vets, and Indian summer for Dragic and great coaching.

The heat would be one of the teams with the brightest futures with Bam, Tyler, Jimmy, Duncan for the next few years plus cap space and some of the best coaching and development in the NBA.

Nets next year going to be incredibly tough to stop, we’d start underdogs to them and everyone else in the east would be a great tough battle.

Good to just be in the convo

At the very least, it should be a joint award between AD & Bron, but everyone knows that AD never stood a chance.

his free throw shooting is decent, it should be able to translate decently into a jumper

I LOVE THIS TEAM!
