Only because SA is begging for 6 games…I hope we sweep em 💯😎
Does Nick know the Wolves have been better in almost every statistical category than the Lakers since the all-star break?
Julius Randle will cost the Wolves at least 1 game in this series for his bonehead plays.
Of course everyone wants the Lakers to win…Minnesota can't beat okc or anyone left in the west
We don't care what Ant averages in points as long as it's inefficient.
Lakers will cruise? Yeah sure 😂
aaaAAAAAaaaaannnnnnnndddd
Luka is “slightly” better than Ant? Your son needs some NBA education Nick
I don’t disagree but feel like most think Ant has a higher ceiling than Luka
I don’t believe both players have to be the same caliber of player for a rivalry to develop. Let’s say LeBron and D-Wade consistently met in the playoffs in the East…although LeBron is the superior player, that match up could have still developed into a rivalry.
I dont see Ant as the same caliber as LUKA…thats funny .. LUKA plays ZERE DEFENSE .. He is a one way player.
If Julius Randle is your second option it’s not looking good.
I got Minnesota in 6with Randle matching wat Eva Lebron do
Ant will guard Rui to save energy Alexander or Daniel’s will be on Austin to negate his scoring Randle on bron
I better see a massive apology when wolves win in 5.
Ant Man.. Spider Man… Garbage can… Lakers in 5 😈
Lakers are trash, and everyone's about to see it on the big stage.
Man these laker lovers are gonna have an anuerism when minny steals game one lmao
How much does Klutch pay Nik? and is it a salary? Quarterly?
Dude this cohost is terrible 😭 it should be just nick
Nick dosent watch Ant he’s gonna win multiple mvps
Nick, I def wanna see LeCoGOAT get his 5th ring and Luka get his 1st. But in order for that happen I think that EVERYONE (who plays at all) has to stay healthy. I think they could compete with BOS if healthy but might not win a round or two if ANY normal contributor goes down.
U can have Ear Wax, Car Fax, Just State Facts 😂😆!! It doesn't matter Laker's N ✋🏾!!
Only problem is if they load up on Edward and he’s not aggressive and shooting 3s and Randle is not making shots it’s not going 5 games they don’t have Kat to shoot 3s and give them a run anymore and randle isn’t consistent enough they might get hot 2 games and still lose one
The disrespect…Lakers only won one more game and have a worse offense, defense and net rating (yes even after Luka was traded). The amount of hubris to say "they will cruise"
Minnesota is not beating the Lakers … If u do think so – I'm sorry 😐. Julius randle is not a good second option he's unstable" always getting injured
How many gerbils do nick own
If Luka three falls it’s over LeBron will take over the fourth quarter. Ar vando n rui gonn cook on d
As nuggets fan these are my 2 least fav teams in the west so im happy. Someone gotta go home 😂. Yea I know nuggets prob are too. Worst bench in playoffs easily
Thunder in 4⚡️
Lakers are gonna get blasted by the wolves 😂😂😂
When did you guys move to The Volume? Is blue duck still producing?
Lakers are experienced in games like this, I see wolves collapsing in 4th when Luka keep the fire burning. Lakers by 10+
Hahaha, last year all the National Media thought Suns were a lock to win the first round against the Timberwolves. 😂
Wolves have the top 75% of the top 20 out of both teams. Luka will be gassed and bron is old. Wolves in 6.
Is Luka cooked with more defense that was on the Timberwolves last year because cat provided more decent than Julius Randall plus having Rudy Gobert out there when the Lakers stretch the floor it’s about to be barbecue chicken I swear to God
Great job guys👍
Agreed with everything game wise but I disagree that they’re not on the same level. Luka is probably easier to build around because he does more offensively but Ant, if he was in LA would win MVPs as well. Plural. I’m a Laker fan but Ant is legit. Love his on court mentality too.
Julius Randle, Yankee Candle, presidential scandal…..lakers in 5
better stand down im da truth🥷🏾
I swear sports media say anything
ant took out kd and joker last year before HeGoTtIrEd 🫠🫠
Lebron can get buckets. It's a matter of LeGroin.
Randle at his salary is better than KAT at his. This series will have nothing to do with the wolves they’re a good team and ANT is a very good player. Lakers have Luka & 🐐 bro they’re just better
Randle has played over 700 regular season games and 15 playoffs. It’s the definition of small sample size
