**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[freeze]

**** this guy man

 

[had pants]

 

[pmatic]

Back to back these next two days vs the Thunder and Rockets.

I'm curious how they decide to play these two games out.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

We so gotdamn deep, so gotdamn well coached, and so gotdamn ring hungry that anything less than back-to-back championships is a letdown if you ask me.

Ain't no way that a team led by AD and Brontosaurus King should fail in their quest to win 2 outta 2 in the next 2 playoff runs.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

And we get Avery Bradley back next year plus a more equipped Cacok and THT.

2-peat or I ain't happy

Home court advantage in the bubble not needed when you got 2 Kingz on the court plus a gang of ring hungry veterans with a lot to prove.

 

[trynafeelmink]

Those AD numbers are crazy considering he played the Warriors twice during that span

 

[atlsfinest]

Future Laker for sure

im guessing playing OKC then load management vs Houston.

It makes no sense to go full full speed ahead. Yes we want rhythm, but its really the role players that need to the burn and what better way to do that than having Lebron and AD sit.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Uh oh, looks like Rondo going to be returning in the not too distant future

 

[D_eezus]

Uh oh, looks like Rondo going to be returning in the not too distant future

Thought he was slated for sometime in the second round??

 

[DLF]

Thought he was slated for sometime in the second round??

he is entering the bubble today just to return to working out etc.

as much as I hated him at times, its great for team morale. He is basically choosing to rehab in the bubble vs at home. The players seem to love him so I think its great.

 

[Lizakers]

Can’t wait to see him launch three after three with no defender within 10 feet

 

[pmatic]

Tank the Rockets game to help them move up to #3 in the seedings.

 

[thasoleful1]

Gonna need Nuggets to lose a few games too though

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Thought he was slated for sometime in the second round??

Heard the same. Hopefully when he comes back he is limited to 5 min per game.

Like Delusional said tho, he is great for locker room vibes and leadership. Dude is basically a player-coach.

Warriors tend to get torched by great bigs But the numbers are great regardless

 

[DLF]

Nerlens Noel revenge game. Lakers going down unfortunately.
But man why Doris Burke? She’s awful. Wonder what 2 topics she will keep bringing up every 4 minutes.

 

[tupac003]

Really want to punch Danny Green in the face.

How many more wide open 3's can you miss?

 

[DLF]

Wake me up when DG makes an open three

need rondo back. Miss his 3 point shooting compared to DG

 

[DLF]

Wake me up when LeBron makes a layup

 

[tupac003]

Green 0-4 from three... game is only 8 min old.

Over/under 8 missed 3's..

I got over.

 

[tupac003]

If I'm any NBA team, I'm zoning against us. We can't hit a 3 to save our lives in this bubble.

1-11...

 

[drewsone]

get this mother****er Danny Green out the bubble ASAP man

 

[DLF]

Look at the bright side
When we lose in first round, we will have tons of free time to pick up other hobbies.

 

[DLF]

Ya LeBron gonna have waiters benched in no time. He has tunnel vision like crazy
