Embarrassed a DPOY candidate in Gobert last game for 40 points, but only has 9 points in this game so far. Is he and LeBron just taking it easy or something? Lakers don't have anything to play for anymore anyway.

They’re simply being outplayed. Avery was a bigger loss than advertised. The starters have been outplayed every game, outside of the one game AD put up 40+.

Danny Green and Kuzma have forgotten how to play basketball.

Lakers are the only championship contenders that are inconsistent beyond the arc

OKC has been really impressive. And to think people were calling for Donovan's head last season.

He’s just continuing off that lmao. I remember even said this in Danny green signing thread but lakers fans refused to believe

im not disagreeing with you, but its not the playoffs yet. time will tell. Hes playing pretty bad on both ends of the floor right now.

Danny atleast player defense, if he can’t even do that

He can’t pass, dribble, rebound

He’s useless

Well that's a concern for you guys...I'd assume LeBron is just saving his energy for the playoffs. That could still be the case, but I'll take your word for it since I only tune in to Lakers games intermittently.

Lakers need Bronny

This is the energy level you get when you have clinched the #1 seed and losing this game helps your seeding opponent-wise. I mean, losing this game actually helps the Lakers.

how many steps was that Lebron?

I was just looking into seedings, you think it helps us so Hou falls to 6 if Utah and OKC can be 4/5?

Yes, especially if they beat Houston tomorrow. I'd much rather play Utah/OKC in the second round than Houston.

If the Lakers win tomorrow, how 4D chess big brain would that be?

Do these stupid virtual fan TVs have to be on? It looks like you're shooting against a LCD display no matter which angle you're shooting from. Depth perception is ****. I wonder if they practice with these things on too.
