Donte DiVincenzo looks like he steals catalytic converters on his off days

Why not double Reaves, since no one else wants the ball? Bad coaching there.

I think that was the plan, but he split the double. Rudy just had really bad lateral movement

I meant double him and don't guard the inbounder. But you don't double him with Gobert. Ayton came up to the three point line to set a screen, Reaves split it and you got the game winner. Finch was supposed to use two wings (DiVo and Jaden).

Austin reaves turned into michael jordan

Reaves is definitely getting traded for at least one of SGA, Giannis, Jokic, and Wemby.

A star is born.

He is HIM.

He'd be a 6th man on a contender, another overhyped Laker

Jokes aside, everyone expected he should have been at least in the famous LA/Mavs trade package.

I don’t think 6th men average 30 ppg. :lol:

Why is gobert on the court if you are going to defend like that? Everyone in the world knew what the play is going to be. Unless you doubled reaves and you needed gobert to protect the rim fine, but gobert in a P&R is a recipe for disaster

Equally a good play by Reaves and a complete breakdown by Minnesota.

They had their chance . Too late now. 8-)

Azcats asked me who I liked between Reaves, Herro and Cam Thomas and I emphatically stated I like Austin, because while Reaves is not a point guard, he has the handles to get to his spots. His issue is getting worn down come playoff time, but the guy is a baller.

Cooper Flagg 13 of 13 from the FT line this season A+.

Kenny and Chuck are bigger Laker haters than I'll ever be :lol:

chanting "Jeremy Lin" at the end of the game as if Austin hasn't been consistently good the last 2-3 years. He's a very nice player

chilluminati · Post #258 » by **chilluminati** » Thu Oct 30, 2025 4:17 am

Just goes to show that AR can be much more than just a 3rd option. to have him playing at this level as a 3rd option when Luka/Bron comes back is a good scenario to be in.

Kenny disrespectful af. Jeremy Lin? tf?

Lakers were only down 1, there's always a risk of the Lakers throwing it towards the hoop.

Who wins?
