[TheGoldStandard]

So Sunday night we'll be lighting up a cigar for win number 50

[PingPong]

Ayres dunking after the buzzer... training?

[Southwest Texas Fan]

...I thought Bazemore took out Ayres for us.

[Mugen]

Bazemore got all ball tbh.

[timtonymanu]

We beat them fair and square and so did the Bulls but other than that, they might be holding back a bit for the playoffs.

LeBron looks tired and their role players are just getting older plus those long playoff runs are catching up to them. I still won't underestimate them in the playoffs, but they don't look like the favorite right now.

[Boomersgold]

and he hit the floor.

What comes up, must come down hard.

[Mugen]

If Manu sees a second in the 4th, Pop........

They'll coast to the ECF.

[Uriel]

Mike D' Antonio's Run-N'-Gun system operates under the premise of playing as many possessions as possible, in order to have more chances o demonstrate one's superiority over the opposing team. The only problem with that is, the latter statement is anything but true for these Lakers.

[weeks]

it just occurred to me
if the lakers lose tonight, doesn't that mean they're officially out of playoff contention?

They're still in good shape. The Pacers barely beat the Sixers tonight.

Surprised that someone as slow as Nash was able to effectively play in the system for so long

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Man this version of the Lakers is pathetic.

[SpurPadre]

Come on, let's get this back to at least 30...keep hope alive!

[mclinejr]

What I want to know is, where are all the posters who predicted this to be a "trap" game?

[Boomersgold]

Man this version of the Lakers is pathetic.

Sacre = D League
Henry = D League
Bazemore = D League

[james evans]

i have the strangest feeling that the #1 and 2 picks of the draft will go to the lakers and the celtics. the nba has a way of keeping these teams relevant in their troubled times.

[moisaenz]

Who's worst sacre or Ayres?

[timtonymanu]

There's always at least one person that says this any time we play a ty team.

It's almost a foregone conclusion but none of those prospects will make the Lakers special right away.

[SpurPadre]

Sacre = D League
Henry = D League
Bazemore = D League

I ing hate LA for giving the Warriors Blake for freakin' Bazemore.

[DapDaGenius]

Ayres trying so hard, but no dice. in up.

[timtonymanu]

Ayres doing what he does best, throwing away leads.

[Mal]

But Kobe could Wiggins potential really bad.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Ayres is really smart.
