You can’t wave the white flag

He's not entirely wrong.

It's obvious that the Lakers' most effective lineup, particularly defensively, is Schroeder, Reaves, Hachimura, James, and Davis.

Playing Vanderbilt and DLo at the same time is disastrous. Vanderbilt was left WIIIIIDE open on a corner 3 that he missed badly. DLo gets targeted by the Nuggets bigs on PnR.

Who wants this job that can actually coach?

Monty? Maybe but why- this is a dead end job- they one year from no LBJ and rebuilding around reeves, AD and Rui- when the west gonna have Nuggets still, the Suns, Mavs, OKC, NO, Kings and potentially the Spurs on the come up… and I’m sure the GSW will retool- The lakers post Lebron gonna be ADs team - which means a lottery team cause he and Kawhi combined a full time player - and at least Kawhi brings it Everytime he wears the jersey

Lakers managed to flip westbrook into Dlo AND vanderbilt (maybe more), and we got people on here "if the lakers can just flip Dlo,". Like...how many times are they going to get to upgrade their roster without giving up assets?

Point being, being the laker's coach is a thankless job. The fans expectations are too high. The media never shuts up. And you get cali income tax? For what?

Once Austin Reaves gets overpaid by a team like Atlanta or Detroit we’ll never hear about him again lol

i wonder if those teams will start having historic levels of FT disparity

Reeves won’t know what to do when he’s not getting a more calls than guys on the all nba team

[dhsilv2]

When Jordan played at 38, you were like 6. Right?

2002...come one dude. This is a 30+ forum. This calling people young stuff is a really awful take.

Especially since I’m from dc- you know where 38 yo
Mj played

lol, I didn't even get there with how dumb that take was.

The funny thing is, if you only watched a select few games during that run, you'd have thought MJ was a freaking god. If you watched a few more...you're see that after every WOW 40 point killer. He completely sucked the next 2 nights. I watched every single nationally televised game those two years, at least that I could. It was fun to see MJ and at times he played like MJ...but that was a low efficiency barely all-star if we're nice guy.

[KyRo23]

Lebron got asked in the post game presser what he thought was the difference for Denver this series. He mentioned Jamal but then basically said their role players hit their shots and our didn't. Way to take responsibility.

I just watched it and you're straight up not being truthful. He said nothing about their role players hitting their shots and LA's isn't He gave proprs to their role players, but did not throw LA's players under the bus. He didn't even mention them actually. Cut the BS

Stop it man. Embiid is a great player. He can't stay healthy. He's annoying sometimes with the press. But he's still an elite player.

[ArksNetsSince99]

I wonder where is all of this 99% experts and real gm users who said Denver gonna flame out in the first round

Before series started I voted Denver in 4 , still alive , there was 5 people who vote like that , now it’s 26

Nuggets made you a believers

He had no business in that conversation though. Dude is horrible in playoffs and has never even reached a conference final. Will be 30 next year. He’s a regular season player and end of story. No regular season player defines an era.

Reaves gets calls because he consistently wrong-foots people, on purpose, and plays into contact. He’s crafty as all hell.

Now would he suffer with more defensive attention? Obviously. But the guys best suited to deal with that are good passers. Which Reaves is.

Lakers gotta keep this guy. But he’ll get big offers.

People acting like other teams are going to sign him to be their number 1 option.

LeBron looks injured

[-Luke-]

Can the Nuggets recover from the first three games?

with is Nick Wright talking about lol The Lakers were playing from behind the entire game lol It takes a lot of energy to come back so they collapsed. It's a common theme. Nick Wright is just being a troll.

An elite flopper , free throw merchant and disappearing act in the play off's.

Agreed. I'm not sure who's era we're in right now but I'm not sure if it's Embiid or Jokic. A new superteam or two will be made at some point. And, some young guys might surpass them. I think there's going to be a lot of player movement... a total arms race. No one has a stranglehold and it's so wide open. Someone is going to try and take advantage.

Denver, even if they win, need to be prepared to add more like GS did. They're going to have to get better to keep competing in the future.
