huge effort ; there no need to talk bout anythng else. we won back to back playoff games already . shotout everyone thy all tried to kill their own legs in defence. and pls jj dont hate vando bc hes a bad offensive player while no one was hitting a sht , we clearly needed him to play 10 minute for the glass. and lets win next game and clinch 3rd seed 👍🏿
People talking about luka not being the superstar of the night, like what game were u watching ? Luka was getting buckets at will whie everyone on the court was struggling to even score. 36 points the next closest guy was like 17 or something.. luka haters r unreal
I disagree we started beating great teams out the gate that’s what put us in this position we weren’t jus beating bad teams in the beginning of the season
Although LA is playing well right now as a fan I don't think they have a winning formula. The point about Luka being ball dominant is valid because that's not a winning formula. LBJ has been to 10 finals with that formula and only won 4 of them. The better team almost always wins. The way players shoot better is by getting reps. Pass the ball to the open man.
Bad shooting night from most of our role players and in general but we close the game out with HUSTLE AND DEFENSE!! Gotta be able to win games like this as a top contender, let's go lakeshow 💜💛
There’s times when the players are intentionally looking off Lebron in the offense. It’s very strange. Like they have to fulfill a pecking order and not just go with the flow of the game.
I had a feeling that we will beat them in this 1st game, but feel like the Rockets may be a little better the next game. So Lakers have to be even better in that game to hold them off. So we will see.
You getting upset for someone donating money with a comment that Luka is a ball hog is wild. He is a ball hog rather other teammates are on or not. You should refund him.
All LeBron had to do was agree to be third option and take the regular season easy. All he wanted to do was stat pad and sabotage the team. This yr Austin could have been an all star but lebum needed that too. He had his agent start his goofy podcast takes too. Sit out important games. Etc etc.
Freakin wow !!!! Granted sangun was out , but i feel like the path to victory against this rockets team doesn’t change even with him on the floor. The lakers need to continue to find ways to impose their strategy and scrap and I really like what we’re capable of. Two weeks ago we were talking about 7th place now we’re taking control of the 3rd spot it’s always a wild run in lakers land lol
Austin Reaves was anointed the 2nd option. Yes he did have a good defensive game but horrible and trash on offense. He needs to play both ends at a high level as a 2nd option. Dont you think so? If he doesn’t Lakers won’t go pass the 2nd round
I still feel like I would rather play Min than Houston. Then again Min does seem to turn it on in playoffs. I'll take Houston in the first round and Min in WCC
The thing is there aren't very many free agents this offseason so we have to go after restricted free agents. The Nuggets probably won't be able to keep P Watson and Rockets probably won't hold on to Tari Eason. Restricted free agents ARE our options this offseason
Barkley on Inside the NBA, why it is called inside the NBA? These guys provide no insights whatsoever instead they make dumb jokes, state the obvious or just perfecting the old men yelling and whining from their porches. Who watch that? Garbage
Offensive rebounding will be the death of us eventually like it always is. Imagine if we had another athletic wing that can actually rebound. That said now that the team seems to have gelled a bit they are playing well like you would expect from that big 3.
Loving the wins but I hate crying over spilled milk, the loss to the Magic and Suns still stings, Lakers could have tied the Suns for the tie breaker and also would have had 45 wins right now.
Lebron says Luka is the reason they won.yeah the opponents allow him to be wide open for unchallenged shots same as it was when Bird played wide open shots.When Brunson, Edwards,SGA touch the ball they get all types of defenders.If the centers would challenge that Joker guy and also teammates shut down passing lanes Joker would be typical.ya'll stop biting all of that hype
For Luke and AR they also been playing their hearts out on defense. I know that plays a factor on energy on the offensive end. They both will get less fatigued as they get use to this playoff like games.
Kinda random thoughts. But noticed the ref that looks like Gucci Mane is a pretty shitty ref. Rarely calls clearly bad reviews and overturns it. The main ref in the Denver game. The ex cop is a great ref. He calls it like it is with no ego involved that the refs made a mistake. Maybe its a small sample size. But noticed the Gucci mane ref has been horrible most of the season.
bro the "chat" of this channel is full of clowns. What the hell do you mean Luka wasn't the best in this game? Look at those numbers???!??!?! So stupid
If Sengun there, is outcome the same. Is tremendous Off Reb discrepancy attributed to LAL lack of athleticism. Still Skeptical, and Still waiting to see
LeBron and A.R.15 played D….the Lakers give up 35 points in the second half get out offensive rebounded by 3 get 14 steals…the Lakers have to play D and they'll win…there on a run 🏃♀️
aint no 50-win team winning a chip. lakers have clearly hit a ceiling. they need to go all-in for a player with +10 win impact, and the open position will be at power forward. It's gotta be Lauri or MPJ. PWat does not cut it
Love the win and it seemed weird that I was cheering when we got a defensive rebound! That game showed what athleticism does as it felt like we kept getting beat to the ball. Adding a high motor high flyer would be nice! Go LA!
Neither team, could make a bucket last night, tomorrow's another huge opportunity for the Lakers to grab the tiebreaker, come out and rebound the ball, excicute down the stretch. STAY FOCUSED and play PHYSICAL. I LOVED the double team on KD..

Only luka and reaves 16 missed 3's
Good game. Good effort. Good W
We’re hitting our stride at the right time 🔥💜💛
Insane 4th quarter lol. Neither team could hit anything
I disagree we started beating great teams out the gate that’s what put us in this position we weren’t jus beating bad teams in the beginning of the season
I guess Charles Barkley is gonna have to talk about the Lakers 😎

Not ready to jump out on a ledge and call us contenders yet. But it’s great that we can grind out these tough wins.
There’s times when the players are intentionally looking off Lebron in the offense. It’s very strange. Like they have to fulfill a pecking order and not just go with the flow of the game.
Terrible Austin game and we still beat the Rockets for 6th straight against good teams, this is exciting
I had a feeling that we will beat them in this 1st game, but feel like the Rockets may be a little better the next game. So Lakers have to be even better in that game to hold them off. So we will see.

Celtics beating Suns helped us go 4 games ahead of Phoenix for the 7 seed.. Thanks, Boston. lol
The entire game I kept thinking the offense would have to get hot to win this game. I never would have guessed Houston would only score 12 in the 4th.
All LeBron had to do was agree to be third option and take the regular season easy. All he wanted to do was stat pad and sabotage the team. This yr Austin could have been an all star but lebum needed that too. He had his agent start his goofy podcast takes too. Sit out important games. Etc etc.
For you knuckleheads who say Lebron makes the team loose, now what? Crickets i bet you
I still expect Denver to get the 3 seed with that cake schedule they have to end the season

Mdredd is an idiot why he’s not blocked yet is beyond me.
So confused, I think imma Believer now 😮 only a 100 in a win? Madness 😅
I still feel like I would rather play Min than Houston. Then again Min does seem to turn it on in playoffs.
I'll take Houston in the first round and Min in WCC
Now all of a sudden bron a good player again? I swear people switch up like the weather

Trevor as usual getting overly excited about a regular season 6 game win streak. Try winning more than ONE game in 1st round of playoffs. lmao
Trying to talk about Smart stats is crazy. He was the primary defender on KD! He sacrificed his body hurt his back ect
Lights are too bright in LA come playoffs.
LBJ started the come back with a 3 when they were down 9
Play Ayton 40 minutes a game 💯

Marcus Smart
Is Lebron still holding AR and Hooka Luka back or naw now??😂

MORE hype on Luka for MVP??
