What that Lebron layup looked like.
Raul
“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

Can the Lakers hold them to 20 or 25 at half? Not out of the question with how it's going :lol:

Always has. Dude can't play more than 24mins a game from the fouls alone.

Dillon the Villain post-game interview: "Lebron's not on the same level as he was in Miami and Cleveland. I wanna see him give me 70. Then I'll give him respect."

Why does everyone want Dillon the Villain's respect so much??

I can't see the Lakers keeping both Rui and Reeves this summer.
AKME? More like MEAK with how they're afraid to make a move to push us in one direction.

Bane has been absolutely useless. Turnovers, can’t make shots

Outside of Lebron and AD and Schroder to an extent, every single Laker rotation player is in their early to mid 20’s with little playoff experience.

I expect them to play much better at home and with more energy. Great job so far!

If I’m Memphis I’d look to trade Ja while his value is high.
