2025 NBA PLAYOFFS West First Round: #3 LA Lakers vs #6 Minnesota Timberwolves (MIN leads 1-0)

I don't get why JJ is playing his top heavy roster big minutes in a 23 point game.

They gotta get their stats

[Sharkboy242]

Media and Lakers fans tried so hard into gaslighting us that this would be an easy series. lmao.

How many times did the Nuggets blow out the Lakers in a playoff game?

Good night! Enjoy your easy matchup.

Lebron on bended knee begging for a foul is gonna be a meme

Wow, you could actually hear LeBron yelling at the ref from that far away.

If the Lakers are going to stick with the Luka/LeBron tandem they need to seriously consider trading Reaves for a legit big. No need for Reaves when you already have Luka and LeBron who both can handle and assist.

I dont know if he should be traded. But he should def not be starting against Minny. He needs to come off the bench.

Is there a reason why they cant just replicate the Mavs team and just focus on a ball-dominate Luka. I don't know how I feel about this half LeBron-half Luka offense. When AD was on the team he basically took a reduced offensive role focused on defense and had his good 1st half or 2nd half games.

It's not even half luka half Lebron offense though. Luka is the main dude it's clear as day. But yeah we need to build the team around Luka to hide his deficiencies.

but it's game 1 and we cant play any worse. Im expecting us to lock in for game 2.

wash this game and move on.

No way he just said LeBron is not a complainer

[zimpy27]

Made $1k on this game.

LeBron and game 1 is money in the bank.

"He's not a complainer" - Jay Bilas about LeBron

I'm a fan of LBJ but lol

[Wolfgang630]

Minnesota stole game 1 on the road in terrific fashion.

[sp6r=underrated]

Lebrons jumper looks really weird after he came back. Like it’s someone else’s jumper lol

This isn't meant as a criticism at all because what he is doing at his age is historic but I think this is just mainly age. Some days his legs aren't there and he struggles to find a way to make it work.

"Marc you need to give me more foul calls, COME ON"

[Mr Puddles]

ESPN crying right now

The Lakers will probably go on a mini run in the last two minutes, and ESPN will claim 'they figured the wolves out' during that span.

[AussieCeltic]

Good win Wolves. Just too big.

Made a lot of 3’s but majority were wide open as Lakers were over helping

[NYKnickerbocker]

It’s bronny time

[PushDaRock]

Bronny's first playoff game!!!

[JustBuzzin]

That Mark Williams trade gonna come back to bite the Lakers.

[CIN-C-STAR]

Did he just call the euro step an “Afro step”?
Never heard that one before lol

[jokeboy86]

Minnesota to me is so close to being serious contenders on a yearly basis They are literally just missing probably one more player. Who or what type of player that is I cant put my finger on it though

[Pistol_Pete]

LA’s got Minnesota figured out.

Lakers in 9.

Well, so much for Luka owning the Wolves. Different team. Different season. This is a series folks.
