  1. If Jason picks the Lakers, we have a chance.. it's the only thing which can do the miracle.. it's like the cat never falling on its back: it's the Jason paradox, whoever Jason picks, he has zero chance to win. And the day After he nods and smiles like he had already figured out everything..

  2. 55:37 no way you are still crying over this… dude, who cares… why does it bother you soo much. That’s called insecurity. The Laker did it and you are upset the Knicks didn’t. 😂

  3. The real ones know LeBron is the most consistent player of all-time and the best athlete of all time and the best basketball player of all-time Scoring, cluth-scoring, leadership, defense when it matters most, passing, thinking, rebounding when you need the most in an important game. He is the GOAT.

    I still can't believe Lakers fans tried to kick him off the team after he has sacrificed so much for this team during his time here. Literally every other star or good role player has been injured except Bron. Luka, AR, AD always hurt or having injuries when it matters most. He basically is still the most popular player in the league and top 10 and Lakers fans really tried to force him out. 😂😂😂😂😂

  4. How is Austin shooting FG 36% and 16% on 3s considered a “pretty good” series? Any other Laker (past or present) would be crucified for this especially in the playoffs. More concerning was his defense that was exposed again. This is a familiar pattern including the excuses that come afterwards.

  5. We said we would win in Houston.
    Nobody believed us.

    Not even our spokesmen.

    We say we winning this series.
    It’s different.
    This will be Brons Magnus Opus.
    One Last Damn Time!!

  6. We’re going to win the championship. LeBron is the last level. The first one. The original. LeBron is an energy. he can’t be stopped. This will be a series for the ages. Everything is about timing.

  7. I don’t see Austin getting spot up shots unless someone else is able to penetrate and kick. AR will be starting off more in a Rondo role like he did in game 6

  8. I was spamming in everyone comment section before the rocket series

    “Jabari smith , jr smith, will smith … lakers in 6”
    (You can go back and look)

    My new prediction

    J Dub, B Dubs, Toilet Scub IT DONT MATTER!

    Lakers in 7 🫡

  9. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if OKC comes out in Game 1 and wins by 30-40 points to make a statement to Lakers, they aren’t on their level.
