this lakers team post-trade feels like the Bucks where they sacrifice Jrue Holiday's defense for Dame's offense and they find out they're basically a completely different team.

If Ant makes it…physicality was bad.

If Ant misses it…physicality was great

Oh but that’s an offensive foul. Of course they see it if the wolves do it!

no team with Julius Randle is winning an NBA championship. The dumbest player in the NBA

I dont know if he should be traded. But he should def not be starting against Minny. He needs to come off the bench.

It was a blatant missed call. Ref staring right at the play

Lakers have basically be called for nothing the entire game and LeBron wants to whinge like that? Players get techs for clapping and bouncing the ball.

Wolves declining Luka for Ant trade doesn’t look that stupid anymore , right ?

Lakers just have no defense or maybe Minnesota is making everything

70 years old Mike Conley outplaying AR big time
