This is the Luka we all want. THE BUTCHER!

Luka was great yesterday. Hard to take much from that game though with how on fire Lakers shooting was. Tomorrows game will be another great test.

Okc is favoured by 15 today. Must mean at least 2 of the big 3 for lakers are out.

They should rest everybody and focus attention on Dallas and Houston. Houston will have the 2nd seed with another Lakers’ loss, so they might be resting everyone in game 81.

Yeah, I think two wins guarantees the 3rd seed. OKC is going to be looking for payback - would be a very intense game and make the back to back with Dallas harder. Focus on getting the win in Dallas. Like you said, Houston would have locked in 2nd seed so maybe they rest players or don't play as hard. If we don't get that one, then Portland should be a win. Strategically, it'd make sense to rest everyone for OKC.

Coach malone fired. Lakers don’t need to worry about them this playoffs now.

Lakers 3 seed, Nuggets 6 seed would be a nice draw

Curious to see if we’ll get any “Jokic is a coach killer” type threads/talk. Hmm.

Figured OKC would score a lot better, but they still can't stop the Lakers at all. Most of these threes are wide open.

Malone is the only coach he ever had, so no.

He might be a GM killer though. 8-)

The Luka ejection is one of the lamest you’ll ever see. Ruins a great game as well

jalengreen · Post #2314 » by **jalengreen** » Wed Apr 9, 2025 2:14 am

Ejected for talking to the fans.. lol

Man was so happy to toss him too. What a clown.

jalengreen · Post #2316 » by **jalengreen** » Wed Apr 9, 2025 2:19 am

Brutal run, might do it

Helluva effort on this two game run, didn't expect them to play this well today. Hope they have enough in the tank for Dallas.

That bogus ejection certainly saved OKC from what could've been embarrassing B2B losses.

nzahir · Post #2318 » by **nzahir** » Wed Apr 9, 2025 2:47 am

Adam Silver needs to be taken out back

Letting refs RUIN this league. We aren't paying to watch REFS

Okc getting all these calls for the year for no reason is weird

Hoping HOU rests guys vs us

Jurassic_Park · Post #2319 » by **Jurassic_Park** » Wed Apr 9, 2025 2:00 pm

Awful ejection ruined a good game. Even with a loss today lakers should be fine for 3 seed as hou will have nothing to play for when they meet the lakers. Then last game at portland

The NBA has very helpfully rescinded the second tech.

Hindsight: Would you trade Luka back to Dallas for Anthony Davis?
