Every single non Laker fan can see it bro. Lebron hasn’t even benefited from the calls so I don’t know what you’re talking about there.

It shows how good are Jokic and Murray
It is? Those two are definitely good, but if they lost to the Suns, the Suns would be in the WCF with I don't want to be here Ayton and either Okogie or Craig in their starting lineup. The Lakers start Vanderbilt and Russell. Clippers were in the WCF in 2021 starting Reggie Jackson as their 2nd option and Marcus Morris. Teams have their top guys and their complimentary guys, that's just how it is.

Jokic looking like a fat walrus out there. Rui getting whatever he want and Jokic has been getting locked up for the majority of the game.

Despite the bad shooting percentage, Jokic is still very aggressive.

Murray went nuclear in the 1st quarter. KCP has been on fire as well. Don't forget Scott Foster either.
