    Jokic having a bad quarter & we still find a way to get smashed

    Thank God no Russell on the floor. Let him rot in the bench for Ham’s bald head’s sake

    Ham not wanting to hurt DLo feelings is the same thing Vogel did not benching Russ and that got him fired. This is a fireable offense for Ham. He has to do what’s best for this damn team and keeping DLo starting isn’t it

  4. dgodawg

    We, the lakers and us on Reddit need to calm the fuck down

  5. SandersisYABOI

    As unplayable as Dlo is it still comes down to their two stars completely out playing ours.

  6. BastiRhymes57

    I’m convinced that anything Jokic do defensively isn’t a foul. Cause the refs aren’t calling it for 3 games straight.

  7. Disastrous-Emu960

    People keep talking about the Celtics coach being the worst left. Well Darvin Han might take the cake. He waits forever to take out d lo (-41 this series)when he’s done nothing to deserve even starting at this point. And he continues to play a 3 guard lineups that has proven to not work .

  8. BearShark8

    Lakers need an elite offensive player next season even if he isn’t great defensively. AD isn’t consistent enough. LeBron hopefully looks better next season. But they need a guy who can score 16-20 off the bench.

  9. D-majin

    Ham gonna bench dlo when we’re down 3-0

  10. LaloVapores08

    So the real mvp is 0pts but we losing

  11. karmaisevillikemoney

    Have you guys noticed that Ham made 0 adjustments?

  12. Deshondre92

    They must of forgot the led 3 quarters in Denver

  13. Mustard_Jam

    This is all on Ham. I don’t like blaming coaching but Russell should’ve been sent to Cancun after game 1

  14. YoursTruly_Flounder

    Lakers playing like they’re the ones that are up 2-0. Doesn’t even feel like a home game

  15. FriscoFlo

    Why does Ham refuse to start Rui and not pull D Lo

  16. BizzyHaze

    It feels like we are a tier below them, they are just the better team. Hope our guys can prove otherwise.

  17. dakid136

    I know Bron is tired but we need him to drive more

  18. ahr3410

    Murray and Jokic being McDavid and Draisaitl is pain

  19. 6iriboy

    mfs just ball watching and barely sprinting back i’m so sick of this shit bro

  20. LosAngeles1s

    good season y’all, going to miss your bipolar asses

  21. JMobRichie

    The refs has given Denver the advantage early by simply not blowing the whistle, a few of their players should be on the bench with two fouls rn

  22. LakeNormanDawg

    Put Beasley in at this point
    . We need offense

  23. StoneColdAM

    If Shannon Sharpe gives up on the team, we’re screwed

  24. TrashBagAbe

    Truth is their role players are just more consistent and there’s nothing we can fucking do about it

  25. moosethrow1

    Crowd probably died when they saw these lineups lol

  26. Drew-Money

    Seeing Lebron constantly practice post moves and barely see him in the post during an actual game is infuriating.

  27. nba_fan_6

    I don’t think I’ll watch game 4, for my own sanity…

  28. Like bro they are getting almost every bucket in transition and half the team jogs back. It’s pathetic.

  29. redtalks03

    Why the hell isn’t Ham giving Troy a chance to fit the rotation? D’Lo is unplayable this series and Lonnie offers zero defensive resistance and is a streaky scorer. Who cares if D’Angelo gets a bruised ego if he gets benched. This is the WCF. You do what you need to do to give your team the best chance to win and it’s glaringly apparent playing D’Angelo 30+ minutes a game isn’t it.

  30. LeGJOaT69966996

    D lo is garbage man what an idiot of a coach getting exploited 3 game sin a row exploiting d lo weak ass and ham isn’t doing a damn thing fuck

  31. kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

    DLo is shooting us out of the series.

    Can’t have him on too long.

    Ham has to grow the sense to bench him. Not worth figuring out down 2-0

  32. Unlikely_Minimum4113

    We’re playing really good but I just can’t believe what I’m seeing. Can we not just get it in the hoop? So many chances. Denvers are nailing it nearly every time.

  33. trptcam

    Gotta try beasley instead of Dlo. Maybe he gets hot.

  34. scoobydawgg

    If we lose this game, say goodbye to your extension laker fan dlo
