Luka was fouled all night long. Just obvious stuff, hits to the head etc..
I just need the Voters to be consistent. Last yr the stat king was Luka, almost averaged a 35pt triple double and didn’t get MVP. So don’t turn around and give it to Jokic again, now cause of stats: Shai is the MVP.
Jayson Tatum best player on the floor. Team Usa did him beyond dirty
Season averages for free throws per game
Lakers : 24
Boston: 19
Tonight's game
Lakers:14
Boston: 25
Yeah refs were horrible especially that lady ref she only blew whistle for Boston 😅
We can beat them full time team.v full team
I don’t like the lakers chances against the celtics in the finals if they get there. They just don’t have enough.. obviously it was in boston and that’s a tough place to play, luka injured, and lebron didn’t play for what the entire 4th? But still, boston is just better at getting good shots it seems like, their defense also played extremely well. There was a lot of questionable calls and no calls as well, but seems like the lakers just don’t have enough size
Jokic is my mvp
You're trying hard to not be biased. But it's not working. Jokic is by leaps and bounds the better and more important player for his team. His stats are better than anybody's, he just put up a historic 30-20-20 game, and I'm unsure what else he needs to do.
Hold on now lakers defense ain’t good kml they jus was saying lakers is a defensive team
Imagine wat jimmy will do to Luka
Luka needs to get in the best shape of his life if he expects to beat Celtics. Their quickness bothers the hell out of him. Nico still never should have traded him, but that's the reason.
Biased channel why ur still under a hundred k subs cause all u do is meat ride the lakers
I see Boston's tactics against the Lakers. Elbow into Luka's face, elbow into LBJ's face, foul at every possession and then go pay the refs afterwards.
celtics have like crazy bench they have like legit 4 centers as of horford. pozingers quetta and korentt
Jason has some legendary bad takes, but the MVP segment might take the prize. Hard to pick.
AD was hurt last time they played the Celtics
Intro was way too long
Jokić chose $ deserved.
KCP, Bruce Brown . . .
Cap is brutal
Tell your man keep Tatum name out his mouth his better then kd bron curry ad luka only Giannis and Jokic is better sga and Tatum can argue
Hope
Luka trains with LBJ.
Lakers get a 3-d guard to start.
Reaves 6th man.
LBJ less mins.
Miles Turner?
This guy always trying to portrait himself as a non biased analyst but man I guess being a LeBron fan makes you delusion as well, biased everyday all day, 😂😂😂
No mention of how gassed Lebron looked and how it affected his performance?
The thunder have the best personel to beat the celtics but it won't matter bc the thunder offence will get strangled by the celtics defence
I love SGA's midrange game and am in favour of giving him MVP due to the combination of team success and how unstoppable he is out there but the whistle farming is so annoying to watch, the discrepancy between the playoff and regular season officiating needs to end, especially when you have random games like lakers celtics when the whistle suddenly gets stricter and it creates needless confusion. I highly doubt giving favourable whistle to the offense improves the ratings when you get constant breaks in the action on top of all the other timeouts that already massively impact the viewing experience…
Nah Tatum is to inconsistent to be in the same convo
Boston without a doubt the favorites to win the title. Deep down, even Cavs fans understand that they can't get to the same level
Speaking generally, the matchup favors the C's. Period.
To me, stats aside, if you remove SGA the thunder are certainly worse, but probably still top 6. Without Joker, the nuggets are out of the play in. They're not competitive. You could say that's due to their roster construction, in that Denver is built around offense and OKC is built around defense, but that emphasizes the point even MORE not less, Jokic is WAY more VALUABLE to his team than SGA is to his. Joker for MVP on the back of three first ever 30-20-20 game in NBA history. – from a Steph stan
credit to you, you’re the first person i’ve seen who has the balls to call out favoring his injuries more when he’s losing or struggling
Play better luka is injured and still was 50 from the field with 34 point . Still getting his legs while playing with a new team, stop it. Missing rui. Could of won but lebron got injured
When Luka is frustrated he wants then entire world to know he’s hurt. When his shot is falling all of a sudden he’s moving fine. Dudes a such a baby
Former Mavs fan here. I used to love your show but despise the fact that you’d constantly talk about the Lakers, and slight Luka. Fast forward to now, I can’t even watch your show anymore because it just stings so bad to see you gas up Luka and have a real reason to talk about LAL. Keep up the good content, wish I could enjoy it as I used to
Love giving Tatum his flowers, and just to add to that. Tatum has been outplayed by the best guys, but he’s also outplayed the best guys in big moments before as well. This isn’t the first season he’s shown that is all I’m saying
