He don't even need to play well, Lakers just need a Willis Reed moment. If Bamba comes out and hits two threes in his first couple possessions, gets a block on Jokic, all hell will break loose and the Nuggets will fold.
Mo Bamba is going to make the number 1 seed in the west fold after 1 block and a few 3's :pachaha:

So now it's the foot injury huh? Last year it was the knee, before it was the ankle. Next year it might be the back. Guess what, that's all being what's called old. We don't need the qualifiers of if we had a healthy Bron, it's not happening
This is a valid criticism. If its always going to be something then that has to be factored in going forward in evaluating Bron and the roster. I'd say the Solomon Hill injury was fluky though. But overall this is fair.

Good job breh. Others can learn a thing or two from you (in non troll posts.) :ehh:

Bron has been healthy for one season his entire lakers tenure and it was the one season in which there was a 4 month break

Spare me that healthy bullshyt. It was never gonna happen and never will.
Bron showed no signs of slowing down in 2020 or 2021. In fact we used that against AD because just how LeBron was in full attack mode. Solomon Hill shyt was just crazy fluky.

These last couple of years look like age and not being able to recover fast enough. Although a few of us complained in the Mavs game thread that Ham was pushing Bron too much in that comeback game. He didnt sit him like he normally did. @Black Mamba :patrice:

Edit: And TBF I acknowledge the possibility that it could have been Bron wanting to play more mins for the comeback as well.


So its really on Bron, Ham, Rob, etc to really consider the Tim Duncan at the end method. He might have to be on a legit minute restriction going forward. Just to see a healthy Bron in the playoffs.

I gotta say, I don't know whether to be impressed or laugh at the shamelessness of @CantStop celebrating in the Lakers series victories, but the moment it looks like it's all gonna come tumbling down, he's quick to shift positions and shyt on everyone who had high hopes for the team.

Quick to adapt to any situation.

:lolbron:

It's not that I want to shyt on people who had high hopes for the team, I just shyt on delusion. We never stood a chance against the Nuggets and we haven't stood a chance all series.

even if we do get past the warriors, we have no chance against the nuggets

The only game in which we were actually competitive for the most part was game 2. Game 1 we were down double digits for damn near the entire game until the last 3 mins. Last game we were down double digits for damn near the entire game but yet we have dudes in here thinking if DLo hits a few more shots, we're up 2-1.

Us making it this far isn't an indication that this team is actually good/elite which is what conference finals means. It's a product of the perfect storm. We faced a Memphis team without 2 of their 3 best bigs/players and a GS team that had historically bad shooting (Klay and Poole). I've been telling these dudes ALL YEAR that the lack of closers on this team will be our downfall and it showed this entire series.

Game 1: Bron sold at the end
Game 2: AD and Bron couldn't answer to Jamal Murray's timely buckets
Game 3: Another 13-0 run at the end of the game with 0 response

I don't watch all 82 games to shyt on the team, I take more pride in shytting on opposing fan bases after wins like I did against the Warriors. Mind you, most of the Laker fans here know what I'm talking about. It's the dudes who have a personal agenda who try to deflect and blame everyone under the sun for their kings shortcomings.

Example: @Rhakim will tell you that we were competitive all series when we have been behind for 130 out of the 144 mins of game time.

@Rhakim will post charts saying Lebron is right there with Jimmy Butler and so far ahead of Jamal Murray but suddenly forgot the link to the updated charts

Breh pretty much has every base covered. :ehh:

That Nuggets shyt was tacked on though. He was really sweating the Suns. So were a lot of us though.

Suns were such a bad matchup that I wanted to face the Nuggets instead and I knew we had no chance against Denver. If y'all thought this was bad, Devin Booker and KD would have did us worse. We legit can't fukk with the Suns.

You also acknowledge that Murray/Jokic are having a historical duo series that we havent seen in about 3 years as well right?

Not just any team with multiple scorers giving us problems. 2 guys getting 20+ aint the issue right now.
