SmooshCHN:I knew the Warriors were the deficient team but I expected a better fight. I think that's what will frustrate me if I were a Warriors fan. Even towards the end of the 3rd with the Warriors up 9 I never thought the Lakers were out of it. And even the Warriors did not look capable of putting the Lakers away. |

A40:The few sportsbooks I've checked currently pit the nuggets as number one (lmao) closely followed by the Lakers, maybe it'll change sha by the conclusion of all the semifinal series Euroleague is truly unpredictable, my werey Barca was also tipped to win the euroleague last year, I don't gamble anymore but I remember suggesting to a friend to pick Barca, in the final 4 against Madrid, clowns I thought would win in four were the ones beaten in four, I just thank God anadolu won to avoid the usual rivalry noise from their fans after they still flogged us in the spanish league finals despite being favourites so I'm not hoping for much again especially if madrid complete their comeback against partizan as we'll face the winner of that tie, Basketball is far more risky to be a seasoned prophet in than soccer |

Afromentalist:Really did a fantastic job ngl, imo I don't see either of the suns or nuggets stopping them from making the finals especially if AD is fit and gets more god mode performances than the lackadaisical ones once they complete the job vs the warriors but that's just my prediction as anything can sup |

Re: The NBA Begins by Skrrrrrrr: 6:54am On May 09, 2023 |
steady986: Lol. No warrior fan starts talking about KD, and trading Klay when you are about losing to the lakers.... I know the character, he was doing the same shit last season. |

A40:You see that fake lead they put up before the 4th quarter, I've been there a thousand times. And I know that look fromKlay, Curry and Draymond when they are going to fold. I was why Poole even stepped on court. I'm just pissed I still tuned in to the game when I couldn't sleep. 1 Like |

Re: The NBA Begins by Skrrrrrrr: 7:09am On May 09, 2023 |
Another thing I don't understand, is why Kuminga isn't getting any game time. Or because Poole earns that much, Kerr gotta play him, as a justification? |

SmooshCHN: Okay bro I think I understand where you're coming from Yes, GPIi was immense for us after that trade. However, you can't jettison the fact that draymond's defense has been solid too The fact is just the same way curry can't do it all alone on offense, Draymond can't do it all alone on defense Yes, I support the PJ Tucker trade and a solid defensive big that can play that guard position. I would've said trade Poole for Buddy hield but that one go tough. They may want Klay Thompson in that trade too And yes, I still maintain that Klay Thompson should be traded. You can agree with me that in all games this season (regular season and playoff), we can count how many good games we had on the palm of our fingers. That's how bad Klay has been after been off the game for 2 yrs and now already in his 30s..... It's a hard pill to swallow but Klay has to go too 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 9:08am On May 09, 2023 |
Skrrrrrrr: We can agree on this This issue has gotten many coaches fired. I dare say many championship coaches have been fired for less offenses. I'm not saying Kerr should be fired but it seems he needs to be micro-managed going forward |

Some folk in here, when Lakers were down double digits, they had already typed all kinds of abuse for Lebron. Already happy to see Lakers lose this game. Then Mr young legs, Lonnie the Walker comes in, and Lakers take a win from what should have been defeat. The same guys, quickly erase their abuse, and start typing how they knew Lakers would win this. How they are so sad Warriors never had any chance. In the same game where Curry is dropping 4pt plays? We see you. We hope you slept well though, not too many nightmares as LeKing was all smiles after that win 4 Likes 2 Shares |

A40: I'm convinced these niggas is mentally ill. Poosies with no conviction in their hearts for their favorite player dey try drop subliminals. Pitiful Unlike you cowards I easily picked the Lakers to win even before tipoff of this series. While vajayjays were playing both sides and being scared.

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 6:43pm On May 09, 2023 |
SmooshCHN:See you cannot be more than what you are. The problem with these Warriors is they don't have a reliable 3 level scorer. Turns out Lakers could even bring one from their bench while their starting PG played like dirt You will beat many jump shooting teams like you easily because you're the best at it e.g Sacramento but the Lakers are the perfect storm for the kind of team that can beat the Warriors. Couple that with the fact that the past 2 games the 3 ball has not been falling for the Warriors I didn't think they had enough paths to victory compared to the Lakers which was why I had picked them from jump street Watch the games, no matter the lead you know in your heart of hearts the Lakers can reel them back in anytime |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 6:57pm On May 09, 2023 |
Kilishihunter:Anybody still using sports books to decide their bets at this point is a m0ron and deserves all his money took. Unless they are factoring AD or Lebron potentially getting hurt the Lakers are easily the best and most loaded team left If you want to watch unpredictable talk about Euroleague. That's why I enjoy it so much. I pick player props if at all I want to bet not outright winners. Picking outright winner in Euroleague is just stupid. You go lose money tire I think Barcelona have a mental block against Madrid. Una get inbuilt fear for those guys. That's the only explanation. I do believe their squad is slightly better on paper but your guys matchup well with them. The way and manner of your losses though tell me it's mostly mental almost like they don't believe they can beat these guys |

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 7:24pm On May 09, 2023 |
darkelf:Naah you would be shocked it's phony Lakers Bronsexuals that would be triggered. As a fan there's nothing wrong in being bullish and defiant about your team's chances even though you know they would likely lose. That's the fun of fandom. What's pitiful is when you lack conviction and choose cowardice the entire time then when your team wins you want to troll the guy that despite his beef for your player, predicted you would win anyway while you were too much poosie to do so What's even funny is the series is going exactly as I called it. The Lakers are winning games without Bron even being the best player in Laker uniform. Will these weasels give me credit? Noooo. They would rather throw subs like heauxs 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 7:52pm On May 09, 2023 |
Blueelf:You are knocking Klay for what you praise Draymond for. I'm not convinced Draymond hasn't been trash for 2 season. Even crazy is the fact that he wasn't injured. Klay and Draymond has been decent. Like I said before, part of why Curry is so dangerous is because you also have to keep an eye on Klay Thompson who equally hasn't been a bad defender. That trade needs to be done and done without emotions. If Klay goes, I bet there are teams that'll take him before Draymond. May be that's me exaggerating but Draymond has not been impressive of late. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Blueelf: 8:08pm On May 09, 2023 |
SmooshCHN: Please I have a quetion? Could we trade OG anunoby for Klay? If you had the power to make that decision, will you be willing to make that trade? |
