I actually like him defensively in that matchup.


Yea I actually think he has better matchups in the Denver series. LA was BIG.
They have McGee and Jokic. not sure who else. I'll need to dig into their lineup.

Supposedly THT. I have to think it was more than that. They knew they'd have to give up a player asset. Especially if Miami was going to give up Duncan Robinson. It probably was Toronto being greedy and asking for Kuzma too or picks.

I am super happy, but I am still trying to understand how the refs can review a play specifically to see if the person who committed a foul, did so flagrantly. And their outcome was to issue a tech on the person who was fouled on the play under review on the other end of the court. How is this possible? This wasn't a coach challenge. It was to see if a foul was flagrant.

Shoutout to Jae Crowder for continuing to grind after starting the series like 1-21 on 3s. The Lakers even dogpiled on him trying to make fun of him with Lebron backing him down. Crowder gets the last laugh here and I'm glad he did whatever dance he did at the end to get a tech. I wouldn't shake their hands if I was Crowder after the amount of disrespect the Lakers squad showed him.

What an amazing game!! This is so, so satisfying, especially since it's the Fakers!! I still haven't got over losing to them in 2010. That should have been a championship year for us.

Finally, we not only get back to playoffs for the first time since then but we also get our sweet, sweet revenge to boot. Glorious.

The past 10 years have had so few things to cheer about. Apart from the Bubble team and the 13-14 almost playoffs team, it's been varying degrees of awful and sometimes genuinely unwatchable.....but the payoff now is HUUUUUGE!!!

Was also incredibly satisfying to see Book with a superstar performance. After watching all these other guys like Lillard, Tatum etc lift their teams to big wins in big games, I've been waiting for our man to give us the same and he came through for us big time. Of course he didn't do it alone but still....GO BOOOOOOOK!!!!

Don't want to get ahead of things but this year now feels like it could be just as good a chance at making the finals as any we've had before. We know we can beat any of the remaining West teams.

Love this team!!

This is great content, and to top it off. thats a foul on lebron not crowder. Lebron ran right in front of him.

Puts all lebrons complaining tonight in perspective


Suns players were pissed with that ****. Seeing drummond mimicking bron on the sidelines sealed the lakers fate more than day to davis' osteoporosis.

Yeah I think the suns players remembered that :)

Crowder had a huge role in the series guarding Lebron and AD. The 1-21 from 3 to start the series was going to eventually average out and it's good that it helped fuel the last two blow outs. For $9m a year, playing such a big role on such a big stage, cheap
