Lol at the idea of Avery Bradley being some kind of Lowry stopper


Missed the point and obviously didn't watch the game if you didn't see what he did to Kuzma in about one minute.

That was beautiful basketball to watch. This group just clicks - from the coaching, effort, BBIQ. They just get it.

I'm so confused. I googled Clinton Sparks and I'm more confused than when I started.


That was/is the tag to his songs from his mixtape days.

What Lakers fans are thinking

I gotta admit...

I fear the Raptors WAY more than I fear the Bucks… And no, this isn’t a hot take. This is the second time the Raptors have given the Lakers the business. They’re a really bad matchup… The Lakers don’t have anyone to stop Lowry and VanVleet, especially with Avery Bradley out… Caruso was just horrendous tonight. They have a trio of long and versatile wing players in Siakam, Anunoby, and RHJ to throw at LeBron. They have enough interior defense with Ibaka and Marc Gasol to at least bother AD. They’re a far better perimeter shooting team. They’re younger and more athletic. They are SUPERBLY coached (Nick Nurse is COTY hands down).

If the Lakers can make it to the finals and match up against the Raptors, they gotta play the best basketball of their lives to dethrone them. I think they’re for real.

$14.63M for Green.... overpaid and overplayed. Bench him and throw in some DNPs!

Let's hope that's the last we'll see of the Raptors....

because I don’t think the Lakers can beat this team.

Too much length, too much depth, too well coached, they have a guard that eats us up, multiple Lebron-sized skill players to throw at Lebron, two defensive specialists, a Gasol who really knows what he is doing, shooting, speed and smarts.

They kicked our asses last time too. It’s now two games where by the buzzer it’s proven there’s no personnel we have that can form a viable strategy against these guys.

Yup, basically just echoed what I stated haha.

Raptors are the Lakers’ kryptonite. I think it’s painfully obvious.

A lot of them want Gasol, van vleet and Lowry on their team. Lol

I mean, he would have been better than Kuzma. I might have been better than Kuzma to be honest. Lowry cooked him, Kuz did not look like he belonged on the same floor as him.
