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

Glad this shyt is finally over.

Please Jeanie do what needs to be done and fire Pelinka.

Why would she fire Pelinka? His trade deadline moves saved the season.

Three of the games were decided in the last minutes. I think the teams were still pretty even. LA just couldn't execute late possessions.

I would say game 2 and tonight, game 1 did come down to last second but we were coming back from behind. It was a hard game to win. Nuggets are just a group that looks like they wont be denied this year.

It was the perfect play. Bron turning the corner to get to the basket

I'm not mad at getting Lebron headed to the basket but a good coach has a counter or two built in just in case the other team blocks the primary action which Denver did. Having AD hanging out at the top of the key let Denver ignore him and end up with two around Lebron.

Tomorrow I will compile a list of @jaydawg08 worst posts in a one week span

Spoiler alert: It includes multiple brags about being down 0-1, 0-2, 0-3 and halftime of being up by 15… in an 0-3 series deficit

All and all.. this was an awesome run..I liked it better than the heat run they having because lakers weren't even supposed to be there... everything stacked up against them.

Bad start
Westbrook
No shooters
Injuries
Newly form team at the end of the season.
Westbrook
Russells...


But they did good .I would say next year they will make a deep playoff run...but they did that..

If the team stays intact..I can watch them all year next season...

If they switch dlo for Kyrie...I just might watch whole games next year...

I know this thread will flame...but this is a successful ending ..

I'll say this again. We have to get rid of D'lo, Ham and Pelinka. I would add Jeanie to that group but we know she aint selling.

I’m trading AD for a haul of nothing but nikkas who can stretch the floor and play D. And I’m going out and getting Kyrie. LeBron with shooters has always been the formula. I couldn’t give 2 fukks about ADs paint protection he’s a worthless and unreliable number 2.

Better team won. We ran outta juice. GG.

Yeah not trying to shyt on Denver at all. They deserve their props for executing and keeping consistent pressure on. I'm just pissed cause three of the games were totally winnable. Ham's first year so not coming down too hard on him but I think many other coaches could've had LA winning this series.

This season don't count.

Do we have room for Kyrie????

No, he would have to take a discount to come here. Even then, it'd be a significant pay cut because LA cannot let Reaves or Rui walk.

 

[Bone$]

Could've used kyrie this series .. Not sure what happens next year.. Not bad for a team created at the trade deadline.. So many winnable games.. Lack of shooting played huge

[GreatestLaker]

pretenders all along. They gave us a lil entertainment this year...but the fact is...they were just overachievers all along. Grats to the Nuggets. Hopefully they win it all. Build upon this season and run it back next year with Kyrie

Overachievers my ass.

 

[ALonelyDad]

This year proved depth > 3 star team. We need to stop the Kyrie wishes. Just add more pieces to this team. Next year is probably the end of the Bron/AD duo, they will give it one more shot.
