I hope for it. Not because I GAF about the Lakers, I just want The Jays to win a title against them. Rivalry and all that.

JJ been slightly disappointing Joe been kinda cruising. We keep trotting out the same sets and actions and he seemingly isn’t adjusting.

I’d be shocked if I don’t see some sort of zone especially since zinger isn’t playing.

Back to back losses for Luka in the finals playing with Kyrie and LeBron would be fabulous!! It would cement that he’s just a media darling .

There are quite a few players we can dissect, But by far the most disheartening and easiest thing we can do is kill luka,,.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Jaylens vision has really improved like I’m kind of baffled sometimes.

Having damn near 40 year old Al locking you down must be demoralizing.

C’s can win this game by 20 but if Luka scores 30+ he’ll get praise for acclimating with LeBron.

Defense and rebounding been the theme in the 3rd. Keep this pressure.

Lebron from 15 years ago would have put that DWhite layup in the 20th row

One of JT or JB has to touch the ball each and every possession
