Haye's Is not meant to be a starter Y'all, his a back up but playing starter.
Can't wait for Lakers to get a legit Center and have Hayes as back ups
Utah/DET I'm looking at you.

If the Lakers shot league average on their 3's, this game would be over.
They are letting them hang in there.
They are letting them hang in there.

fluke first game.
More like this game is the fluke. Both players will be key players when the series shifts to Minnesota. The Lakers have no one outside of Luka.

Mike Conley is legit terrible at basketball. Used to be a damn good player too.

Some elite flopping this playoffs. Jokic and Brunson set the bar high though. They put on masterclasses yesterday.
We get it every foul the Lakers get is fake and all the ones the T Wolves get are legit

Randle on the rip and run was one of my favorites when he was a Laker. idk why bigs don't push it like that, it basically unlocked Draymond when he was a pup.

Laker fans will say they’re all legitimate fouls and that both teams are being officiated equally
