Interesting we didnt get the 1st Timberwolves highlight until 5 minutes left in the game. You woulda thought Lakers were winning by 30.
Rudy Gobert "also had a good game" 😂😂
I wonder who Lebron will pick next near for his teammates/coach
Celtics exposed Luka last year, but everyone just refused to believe it’d be a liability (even tho it already was) moving forward. His offense could only cover up so much, and his fans would try to convince you of that with his gaudy numbers, but those numbers don’t matter when you don’t win.
Mavs were a “just above mid” team while he was there, if his offense was that impactful they’d win more.
No one to blame.
Yes LeBron gave up and it’s becoming a bad habit
LeGAVE UP
I think people who only know how to blame cant actually play . Specially if they are morbidly obese. Its easier to sit on the side lines and pkay basketball savant but throw him a ball and he might just lick it to see what it tastes like. Blaming is the easiest thing to do. My dog blames .
why put a blame
Let’s be real, there isn’t much defense played by anyone in the NBA anymore. I see guys driving to the rim fur layups or dunks far too easily. Luka though is terrible. He will never win a championship being out of shape and not getting better defensively. This why Dallas unloaded him. You can’t hand him a record contract just so he can play at his own pace, Allowing guys to walk to the basket and his whining to the refs after every play he’s involved. He stays behind whining while the other 9 guys are at the other end playing
The Timberwolves were to blame, but ESPN will not give them their flowers. We have too many Lakers fans in sports media, so we're always subjected to Lakers bias. Let's continue to go to more objective sources to get analysis of the teams that BEAT the Lakers. LA residents and fans at ESPN and FS1 can continue to talk amongst themselves. We will be elsewhere discussing the Timberwolves and the greatness of their players.
Ant-man, Pacman, No man…. Lakers out at 🖐 😂😂
Bron played bad 3 out of the 5 games (games 1, 2, and 5). It would have been 4 games but he got 20 FTs in game 4.
Randle and ant punked bron and luka
Only first round. They have years to go.
Bron does not care about winning. I think he scared to retire cause he knows it will all come out.
Reaves is not a star player
Williams is a company guy and that choice jj made was crazy and did your assistance tell you that was a bad choice and you just not listen
Man everyone after luka got traded said lakers winning the championship, now no size, defenders, athletes.
They should look for a formidable coach to be successful.Maybe Jenkins would be great
Is his name really Windy?? I had a girlfriend who had that name. She was prettier. By far
Luka has not won a championship and lakers have no won since 2020, there is no process and it is not working. Bad take Windy.
Lmfaoo the mavericks should thank Nico Harrison 😂🤣
Personally, I don't blame JJ Redick. Because he just expected his players to be healthy and in shape and if you're not then it's definitely flawed for sure. Yeah it's on the players for not listening to the Coach and that's why.
Who's to blame???? Timberwolves are better.
FIRE THE HC AND GM NOW. SIGN SHAREEF ONEAL NOW!!!!!!!!!
Luka is a traffic cone 😂
