As bad as the Lakers have been, it's kinda funny that they do seem to match up really well with the Warriors. Even the last time both teams played the Warriors barely won late. If the Lakers end up as the 7 seed and play Golden State 1st round I actually think that'll be a tough series for GSW

Also WOW, Lebron has 38/6 in the 3rd quarter and the Lakers are still down 12 lol

Okay, I gotta admit - this Dubs/Lakers game is really entertaining.

Pretty impressive win for Lakers there but it took everything from Lebron to get it done.

Lol that's actually a bit scary if they somehow right the ship as a 7th seed, draw GSW in the first-round. They might get Davis back in time too

He clearly was tired of reading Clay's posts.   But he doesn't turn 38 until December.

Without Draymond the Warriors offense devolves into my-turn-your-turn with Thompson, Poole, Curry, and Wiggins. Obviously he is also a defensive MVP talent also.

Lakers won that game. Lebron was unbelievable, but I also felt like the Warriors didn't play well.

Warriors are trash without Draymond, they’ll fall to the #4 seed at this rate.

The Lakers are always on and they stink!

The 10th placed Hawks are 11 games out of first but the 10th place Lakers are 22.5 games out of first.

 ;D
The Lakers are worse than the Hawks but the Suns are also 9 games better than the Heat, so a bit disingenuous with your statement

The pot calling the kettle black.
I don't believe you know what that phrase means.
2025 Historical Draft - Cleveland Cavaliers - 1st pick

Bigs - Shaquille O'Neal, Victor Wembanyama
Wings -  Lebron James
Guards - Luka Doncic

Lakers won that game. Lebron was unbelievable, but I also felt like the Warriors didn't play well.

Yeah I'll admit (begrudgingly), that was a phenomenal effort by Lebron. I was kind of rooting for him in the 4th too lol, he was dynamite and was clutch.

Warriors also looked really iffy in the 2nd half. Klay's production and body language both looked sour yesterday, in fact he even left the court at the end without shaking anyone's hands or anything. Even before halftime he just walked into the locker room with a minute left after picking up his 3rd foul similar to how a kid reacts when a parent says no to something lol.

Their defense is becoming a concern. Their main issue is that if teams have quality bigs, they'll just get pounded. The Lakers actually have size which makes it harder for them.

On offense I agree too. Poole was fantastic last night but you definitely can't count on that happening every night. Honestly too, I thought at least half of Poole's shots were terrible decisions but they went in, but again on a consistent basis that won't work. Poole's barrage of 3s in the 1st half is the only main reason Golden State went ahead during the game.

If Bulls lose tomorrow which I expect they will, C's will be just 0.5 back of them for the 4 seed which should be the goal. And hope Chicago or Cleveland stay at the 5 seed and Miami stays 1.

Let BKN finish as the 7 seed and face either MIL/PHI first round, and then in the 2nd round whatever two of those three teams are remaining will very likely play each other based on the seedings.
