Lonzo is a good kid.

[Robz4000]

:lmao the calls Harden gets

[Robz4000]

RIP Lebron

[D-Wade]

RIP Lebron

Never that. Save Gm 1 2014 haha

[Robz4000]

Ankle roll looked bad, but he walked it off like normal. Need him to continue carrying my fantasy team.

[140]

This chuckfest is fucking unwatchable

[Robz4000]

Getting fed up with the inconsistency in calls these days. Refs will go one way with a call earlier in a game then go the exact opposite, even when it's the same player in the same situation.

Its an abortion tbh

[benefactor]

Rockets have no idea what offense looks like outside of the three ball

[D-Wade]

Green balling out. Now he'll be shit for the next 10 games.

[Robz4000]

Even with their "upgrade" in talent I don't see them beating the Spurs in a series.

[Clipper Nation]

Lonzo is a good kid.
:lol at editing out your shit take that Lonzo was going to score 20 tonight.

:lol 10 points on 3-12 shooting
:lol Lonzo Bust

Still don't get what he sees in Lonzo? We already have a better rookie version of Lonzo anyway in Ben Simmons. Ben's shot is also broken as shit, but he has the pure athleticism to get to the rim where Lonzo doesn't. I don't see what unique talent Longo brings that will separate him? Passing vision? :lol It's not as important as it used to be due to the spacing modern NBA offenses create. Other than that, the rest of his skill set is mediocre.

[Clipper Nation]

He sees the word "Lakers" on the front of Lonzo's jersey and starts defending him at all costs.

[BatManu20]

RIP Lebron

Needs to get his ass to SA this summer tbh. Only way he's going to beat this Warriors team and add to his trophy case. Despite all his greatness, he'll be 33 next month and his clock is ticking. He and Spurs need each other tbh.

Yet he'll go to Houston anyway. At this point the Spurs just need to load up on young talent to win on the back end of Kawhi's prime (if he even stays in SA beyond next season).

[Robz4000]

Also, I can't believe how underutilized PG is on OKC; dude is just standing around in the corner on most possessions while Westchimp and FatMelo play a two-man game (and fail more often than not). Pretty obvious he's out of there at the end of the season unless something drastic happens.

[UZER]

This chuckfest is fucking unwatchable

Rockets shot and missed five 3s in a row during the same possession when they got 4 offensive rebounds. Didn't even look for any other kind of shot. Ridiculous.

[DAF86]

This Denver-OKC game is pretty fun.

PG has been lazy and disinterested in the regular season for years, tbh. It has nothing to do with OKC, he had plenty of games like this in Indiana too.

[Robz4000]

PG has been lazy and disinterested in the regular season for years, tbh. It has nothing to do with OKC, he had plenty of games like this in Indiana too.

Not to this level though. When he's been more of a focal point (when one of Westchimp/FatMelo go to the bench) he's looked a lot better. This is more a failure by Donovan's system, or lack thereof.

[DAF86]

Donovan trusts Roberson way too much, tbh. There's no reason to have him out there in the clutch on a game like this.

[DAF86]

That's the play you come up with after the TO? The exact same shot that Wesbrook missed on the previous possession? :lmao

[StrengthAndHonor]

Ugghh! I hate the fact he’s playing for the Lakers. I was hoping he’d fall lower in the draft:lol, 4-8 preferably in New York. Heck, he’d be amazing throwing lobs to BG and DJ.
