Cooked Kings, bytchmade bigs, and shytty snitches: Your 2022-23 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[Ziggiy]

We gotta come out thinking to lock shyt down. If we only focus on scoring they’re gonna sucker us into a track meet. Slow down their scoring and make smart baskets on the other end + get to the line and we win this game.

But I think we all expected a loss. Would show a lot of guts if we win this game.

I been saying this all series. Getting into an ole fashioned shoot out will NOT work against Golden State. It looks good for about half a quarter before Steph wakes up and Thompson remembers he’s the second splash brother and before you know it your down by 10.

 

[Saint1]

I hope AD come out mad and focused.

 

[Ziggiy]

And therein lies the problem


It's way too much hate and bad vibes and vitriol going against one another
Lebron and Kobe was solid when Kobe passed
I'm a spiritual nikka and I just get bad vibes when I see nikkas beefing with each other
And if I get bad vibes the basketball gods must not be happy is all I'm saying let's bury the hatchet and unify as fans and put good spiritual juju towards our team

Now let's Rally together and let Saint Kobe shine over this Boss Angeles LWO let the black mamba blood flow thru the veins of our players tonight in the Crypt as we battle against not only the GSW but the refs the league and all negative forces that aim to stop our pursuit of what is our destiny
We maybe outnumbered by the forces against us but we shall still prevail

Amen

I honestly never understood why Kobe fans and Lebron fans had any type of animosity like that. Kobe gave Lebron his blessings when he joined and they were never really rivals like that when both of them played. Matter of fact I don’t think Kobe had EVER said a single even half disparaging word about Lebron when he was alive

pound em inside. pause.

Honestly would like to see Bron's minutes dropped to around 32-34. Need him to trust his teammates. The Warriors move way too much on offense for him to pace himself by taking plays off on defense. I'd rather he go hard for less minutes and trust his teammates to do their thing. So far this series the team has been either even or a positive with him on the bench. Those numbers could be skewed due to so many blowouts but overall I think the team would be better with him dropping the minutes and he's able to truly play like Lebron.

This. I've been saying since Game 1 that the series hinges on how much the key Lakers (Bron, AD, even Reeves) are able to go all-out. They NEED their breaks.

Coach Ham said he's not changing a lineup that has given them 3 wins..just need to tighten up defence and play with more urgency

I may need to put @CantStop on ignore for just 1 game.. I never put someone on ignore, but this game is the season and the last thing I wanna do is read 50x in this thread about how hope is lost and the run is over and we need to trade everyone

If ya man’s don’t show up tonight, u might as well put me on ignore forever. Also, what did I tell your goofy ass about “we”. U not part of we. I can always remind you about you proclaiming to not being a Lakers fan.

 

[HoldThisL]

I'm gonna take a shot tonight for every long three that Lebron bricks.

Sounds good in theory, but taking Lebron off the floor means the best wing defender can now focus their attention Rui.....Having Rui on the court with Lebron frees him up to score more because the best defender is guarding Lebron........I also think Lebron wants to play big minutes in a must-win game.

I think AD deserves a break for this ONE game.

If dude seriously is going to play through a concussion, public vitriol ain’t gonna help anything

So Wade wasn't a flopper?



Chris Bosh?

How quickly they forget the D-Whistle moniker

 

[Regular_P]

If Wiggins plays, LeBron has to beat him up in the post. Test those ribs early and often.
