Nephews discredit the bubble, but I think it should count as two rings. Pure basketball, no distractions, no crowd, no home court.

These bums blew a 3-1 lead in spectacular fashion. They have no shame.

Eh, I’m just glad that the Celtics didn’t reach the finals that year.

The clippers first round demise is going to be delicious to watch this year
radhorrorfan
Fuck the Clippers!!!!
ThunderClown101
Such a weak mentality to take zero accountability for blowing a 3-1 lead and blaming it all on the bubble.
If they think bubble ring was easy and they deserved it, why they use it as an excuse then?

Hate these clippers

No one wanted to be there beside LeBron and AD if we’re being honest.

Bubble, no fans, extended rest, so what? A ring is a ring. You know damn well if the clips won that chip the media, their fans and social media would be claiming Kawhi is the GOAT and that LA belongs to them.
alon_s128
the only reason people say that the bubble ring doesn’t count is for two reasons:
1. peoples favorite team didn’t win
2. the lakers and lebron won

So they admit it was harder

Anyone who discredits the bubble is literally stupid.
Apparently only the Lakers wanted to win the title in 2020. No one else wanted to win because they were staying at a hotel in Disneyworld. That’s all it takes to deflate the competitive nature of world class athletes. You heard it here first folks, ONLY the 2020 Lakers wanted to win that title, everyone else was just in it for the free continental breakfast.

People say the bubble championship was easier….whys is that? If it was easier for the Lakers, than it was easier for everybody…I don’t get the point.
They’ll always try to discredit a title only because they weren’t able to win it
iisdmitch
Why is the bubble always an out? Literally everyone there had the same condition. I hate Laker haters who call the Lakers win a “Mickey Mouse ring”, what if Boston had won? Or Miami? Or literally any other teams, is that what people would call it? No, the answer is no.

“if we didn’t lose, we would have won”

Right how is it the Lakers fault every other team was too soft for the bubble lol
OBS_INITY
The bubble was really weird. The top teams lost home court advantage and everyone was healthy. It’s not like the 2015 Warriors who faced teams with major injuries in every round. You could even point out the 2000 Lakers who didn’t have to deal with Tim Duncan.
gnxo
shouldn’t people also discount the nugget’s 1-3 comebacks and the bubble suns if the bubble was easy and doesn’t count?
LoudRise858
The clippers just need to vanish honestly
jono9898
If anyone else besides the Lakers won, the bubble championship would be looked at as a hard fought victory, no traveling, away from your family and no home court or fans just ball. Meanwhile the Lakers win and all the sudden nobody wanted to be there or people act as if only the Lakers tried and only the Lakers got a 3 month rest.
theseustheminotaur
If any team other than the Lakers won people would be talking about how impressive winning in the bubble was and how it should be something like 1.5 or 2 championships. At the time people kept talking about how difficult it was to live in the bubble and how much more difficult playing in it was.
Aggressive_Whole6059
if playing in the bubble was so easy, why didnt any other team win in the bubble?
Aggressive_Whole6059
didnt the bubble negatively effect lakers the most? Lakers had number 1 seed and wouldve had home court through out the playoffs. They lost that advantage
MrCWoo
Patrick Beverly has imagined 5 rings into his hand. That guy is delusional.
PineCreekCathedral
Those jerseys are so fucking ugly.

must be tough being the only team and people affected by the bubble. thoughts and prayers to them, still affected by it 3 years later lmao
BearShark8
Any other team wins that year and the narrative changes to it’s the hardest ring ever won.

i’d love for Kuz to wear our colors again someday

😆 🤣 “think” and “if” being the keywords 🤣🤭
ToonaFish867
So if any other team won the bubble title, they would consider it legitimate. They dispute it because Lakers won it. That’s hate, not logic.
RemyGee
Not our fault they were mentally weak. Lakers were playing for Kobe, Mamba Mentality turned up all the way 🙏

You had your shot & you blew it. Take it like an adult.
SnoobNoob7860
i don’t even think it’s about the lakers so much as these dudes literally blew a 3-1 lead and have the nerve to say something like that also let’s not forget how many people still call it a mickey mouse ring and laugh at them. i’d be fed up too smh
Big_Chicken34
The bubble was a display of pure basketball. It exposed the fake ballers who just want to party and shit. James harden, Paul George etc. Bron, AD and the lakers didn’t lose two games in a row all year they would’ve most likely won either way.
Sjohnsa526
It was a “mickey mouse ring” but I guarantee if the lakers would’ve lost it would’ve been lebron is 3-7 jokes.
