Not sure why the media is spinning this story for the lakers like weβre supposed to feel bad for them. Because we shouldnβt thereβs other teams to talk about like the Timberwolves.
There is levels to this
Okc kfc ufc, lakers in crakers absolutely wolves in 4!
Lakers defense it's horrible
Whats LBJ statline?
LOLakers
And jj Reddick is not a head coach. He dnt know how to coach. He hustle getting free money.
Nanny Goat Queen James Greatest Oiler All Time Fanbois and Diddys Bottom 5 ! Le loser unless it's rigged !
GETTEM ANTMAN we donβt play with LeBarbie around here!
Lakers in 5 π
Neither team is getting passed the second round at all but also itβs so hard to be intimidated by someone whose dressed like a 4yr old who got to pick out their first outfit π
βI was called everything but a child of God β π€£π€£π€£π€£π€£π€£
One thing is certain. Lebron may not win the series but he will win the Longevity award again. No one can beat him because he wants to play another 20 years .
Man said boots with the fur lol! Clippers vs Nuggets is the most exciting matchup so far.
Lakers in 5 ππ. This is number 1 bullsh*t
Where's the Fakers loudmouth bandwagons dumb fans???? Your is team is doomed.π€£π€£π€£π€£
Coach Bickerstaff is 100% correct. These Ns don't play hard unless it is the playoffs
What's crazy is that if Kyrie was playing the Mavs would be better than the Lakers. Maybe that wasn't such a bad trade.
I couldn't take Damian Lillard serious when you wear pants like that.π³
It could be LeBron James, Rick James, James Brown. Wolves by 22
J J has no idea how to adjust. Y'all azz in trouble.
This series is going to show that JJ Reddick is a joke and a clown and does not belong in the NBA as a coach that all his tactics are nothing but a facade and a mirage in the desert about his NBA coaching knowledgeπ
Lebron teams usually lose the first game of each series itβs nothing new.. should they be worried no. All they need is to take back home court advantage by securing a win in Minnesota but should they be concerned sure .. Luka had a monster game and the lakers still lost .. glaring issue of the day was REBOUNDING ! The lakers had nothing for this team which is a nightmare matchup for LA and their inability to rebound! I need Jaxon hayes to have lots of minutes and I expect jj to make that adjustment! Lakers in a grueling 6
Wolves in 5
Ask ur self that last inbound for clippers that cost them game of harden watch it as a competitor think u would throw a bs pass not even over Westbrook head where he canβt reach? I donβt get it honestly makes no sense
Man, everyone getting over confident. Lakers are going to route this team. I was the only one saying in your last vids to pump your breaks. I play sports as well. And I learned a few things. The best competitors know to never underestimate your opponent. You see what value they bring and you calculate it. Everyone saying they are going to win a championship without looking at the Twolves or the Warriors. Everyone trashing the Twolves and Warriors like they are limping in. They are seeded the way they are because they had poor starts, but it's how you finish not how you start. Since the Warriors got butler they are one of the hottest teams around and everyone saying the Lakers prefer playing the warriors or twolves over others. SMH. Twolves have a trio in the name of Antman, Randle and Naz. Nobody talks about Naz, but that guy is the lynchpin to the Twolves success. You unlock him and they will win this series. Antman and Randle will get theirs but you let Naz and Divincenzo get theirs and you will lose this series. These role players are going to lift the team. Everyone saying Antman has to have an incredible game. Wrong, Naz has to have a good game. Antman is the obvious focus. It's Naz and DiVincenzo. Jaden played well too, but I think this was a break out game that saw him at an abnormal high. I don't know if he can do this consistently. But Naz is going to be the X factor.
Luka trash I thought we got such a great deal same luka as always never going to win because he can't guard a sloth π
Well, im not surprised. Shannon did say "Lakers in 5!!" So, T wolves? According to Shannon, you got your only, supposed win, π (but man….. The Timberwolves looked really good!!)
"Ant-Man, Pac-Man, Lieutenant Dan…. LAKERS IN 5!!!" ππ
We do know itβs just ONE GAME right?
Lmao!! I told yall here a spoiler Timberwolf in 5
LaFraud will fake injuries after Game 2 if they lose.π π π

Mitts, hits, a bowl grits. Wolves in 5π
"Timberwolves, Drug Mule, Johnny Ringo/Doc Holiday Duel…
