The Finals: Lakers vs Heat 4-2 LAL Wins 2019-2020 Championship!!!

[Kilroy]

Jimmy butler has to be spent right now... He's been carrying that team for the last 4 games or so, back to the Celtics series... He's not going to have another night like that anytime soon.
AD and LeBron have to get on the same page again... I swear, if it comes out they really are bickering about FMVP, I'm going to be done with both of them...
But that said, even with them not on the same page, and with JB having an all time finals game, we still had a chance to win it.

Bam will probably play, but he's no good against Howard... Unless the refs decide to baby him... I think that actually plays to our strengths.

We need a game from AD where he fights down low and dominates... He's been getting pushed out of the low post way too much. Time for him to start exerting his will down there... Unless the refs decide he needs another off game for the ratings...

LeBron needs to find his elevation again too... He was not looking very springy last game... We need him to have that pop. And we need him to let Rondo facilitate more instead of wasting 15 sec of every clock dribbling out past the 3pt line. I get what he's doing, but we need to lay a beatdown on this team and playing the clock isn't going to do it.
No more stupid shots or bad passes out of ill advised attacks on double/triple teams...

I don't care how hot Morris and Kuzma are, your not winning with those guys taking 13 shots a piece... Especially if AD has had 9... Need to get some other looks... That comes from LeBron waiting until the end of the clock to find someone to pass to.

Vogel has been messing with the lineups and rotations the last 2 games too... That needs to stop.

DG is hurt, but we need him... Hopefully he's gotten some more treatment and will be ready, otherwise I'd rather see THT out there than JR Smith.

Rondo and Caruso can just keep doing their things... Caruso is virtually getting hate from the refs at this point, but he needs to be smarter and not foul as much... Rondo needs to not fall back to average.

Kuzma needs to stop being creative and just make his cuts and find his spots for jump shots... No more stupid passes or quick 3s, and for the love of god, play better D.

Riley and Spoelstra did a great job making all of our key players uncomfortable. Well played, but now we’ve seen their hand and this ends in two games.

It’ll come down to rebounds winning rings.

Dear Lakers,
Stop playing with fire or the heat will burn you. You are 2 wins away from being Champions or 2 injuries and a COVID positive test from nothing. Get this **** over already.

I really hope that game 3 was a wake-up call for these Lakers and that they bounce back and completely obliterate the Heat in this game. As a fan i just assumed that the Lakers would walk right through to the finals given how well they looked in game 1nd 2 and i can understand why some of the Lakers might have relaxed a bit. That wont work in the finals though.

At the same time, the Lakers played like **** in gm3, AD was a non-factor, foultrouble, they turned the ball over 19 (!) times, didn't use their size, shoot poorly and Jimmy Butler had a GOAT-level performance and they were still in it for most of the game. They didn't deserve to win, though, and they really have something to prove in gm4.

[Hoopz Afrik]

A lot of overreactions. Maybe I'm tripping but I ain't stressing yet. One stinker every series. It happens sometimes. The Lakers have proven to be a resilient bunch all playoff long. No reason to believe anything different.

They'll take care of business in game 4.

Don't care how we win, just win the game today. Ugly or beautiful basketball whatever it is just WIN!

Full roster Miami tonite. We are in for a handful.

[Crooked-I]

We got to punch them in the mouth from the opening tip. No lackadaisical bs like usual.

[BEazy]

AD really getting punked by **** Bam? WTF....

[Crooked-I]

KCPPP.

[BEazy]

What the **** happened to our interior defense?

[Crooked-I]

AD hustling out there. They need to give him the rock in the post every time down.

[Crooked-I]

7 turnovers in the 1st quarter. Take care of the damn ball.

[BEazy]

I can't believe we can't contain Jimmy, but we were able to contain Harden and Westbrook...Like there has to be more to why this team is underperforming. I think there might be friction in the locker room...

[BEazy]

This is such a **** embarrassment....

[Mamba Mentality]

Morris continues to get abused on defense while Dwight rides the bench.

I don't think I would play Kuzma much.. I think he's providing some empty stats and not bringing those great off-ball moves like he was against Houston. Lakers offense also has to be much quicker. Lebron is holding that ball way too long and letting the Heat D set up. Only time he should be holding the ball is if he's in the post. Not looking good.

[BEazy]

This has a Game 3 vibe...We might barely come out of this one or not even come out at all...

[Crooked-I]

Lebron needs to wake the **** up.

[kblo247]

Butler is Pippen
Lebron is Magic
