Free throws and ice cold shooting are keeping warriors from being ahead in this one.

Reaves went from an underdog story to a punchable face front runner almost immediately after he started getting a ton of free throws after our game with them and the missed foul call.

I’ll be happy to see the Warriors gone. I don’t think any of the rest of the teams have the ability to really get in our heads and rattle us. Gotta get past the Sixers first though

Schröder is suddenly an impact defender because the Laker jersey means you can be way more aggressive.

We don’t know what was said but sure looked like an incredibly weak technical as Draymond continued his bs

This Warriors defense is turrible. You’re trying to come back and just keep giving alternating wide open 3’s or straight drives right to the rim.

Refs also completely looking the other way as Lakers hand check everything on the perimeter and swipe on the drives lol.

I will never forgive any franchise that has helped the Lakers out of their bind or traded them a star. So Pelicans, Wizards, and Jazz on my **** list. Hope they remain irrelevant in the league.

Yep. 11-42 from deep for GSW, 11-22 for LA. 38-13 free throws. 3rd win in which LA had 20+ extra free points.

They might win the tittle if they can manufacture this many free throws. This is historic. They are a mediocre team but there are no elite teams this year so it's anyone's game.

If we are to make it to the Finals I sure as hell don’t want to face the Lakers. That was a Lebron masterclass, he controlled that game from tip to finish, he out experienced a Warriors team that lives for big games

Jordan Poole is flat out dog **** quickly looking like a horrific contract dude is unplayable.

Warriors out here bricking everything and can’t stop anyone that low key bothers the **** out of me.

Lakers in the WCF, gross. This is getting uncomfortably close to a potential Celtics vs Lakers finals.

Time for the best player in the world to end the Lakers season.
