    3rd road game in 4 nights and they needed LeBron and AD to play 40 minutes to beat half our team. Relax fellas.

    Seeding is obviously important but most importantly is for us to be as healthy as possible come playoff time. We’ve proven when healthy we can matchup with anyone.

    Also 29 FTs to 13… never fails.

  2. KDburner2016

    Didn’t expect to win at all. Liked that we kept it close for most of the game. Another really annoying ref game tho

  3. LilDupper

    I wanna see this offense have more off ball movement this iso ball shit doesn’t win championships, not even close to it.

  4. richard_smith17

    shocking: team loses when half of their rotation is injured

  5. 3rdlifepilot

    Can’t win games if you don’t make your shots, especially in the 4th quarter.

  6. Ant-Man_01

    Incoming r/nba thread posting Ant’s statline with Clippers and Thunders fans talking about “future face of the league? lol” and “1st rd exits”

  7. Anyone who thinks this game is a serious indicator of anything is a joke

  8. LionsFansCantTakeIt

    This game just won Gobert his 4th DPOY

  9. PlayInChampions

    KAT and Ant might be All-Stars, but Rudy is the MVP of this team. All of these elite POA defenders don’t look elite when they don’t have Rudy behind them.

  10. Jmac’s improved 3pt% is looking less like a small-sample-size anomaly every game.

  11. jonn_jonzz

    If we just had Rudy, this games score is probably reversed.

  12. MaxRox777

    I think we win this game with Rudy but still. I don’t think we’re getting the 1 seed back.

  13. kylebertram

    This loss was inevitable. Lakers are best when they can use size to their advantage and Naz just isn’t a Center

  14. Can’t be too upset, AD was bound for a monster game playing against our bench centers. Shot making could have been a bit better, but all in all not a terrible showing all things considered

  15. I remember why I never go into Game Threads. Some of y’all are psychotic lol. This was definitely a scheduled loss but jesus, y’all thought this was life or death the way you guys were talking in there.

  16. Here_comes_the_D

    Oof that got rough. Davis was feasting without Rudy on the court.

  17. BalambTransfer

    Rudy is absolutely invaluable for this matchup. Not just the only real force inside to rebound and defend vs AD but to play smart organizing the defense against Lebron and how he can run an offense.

  18. Formal_Junket_1585

    Expected this loss. Guys played well until they ran out of gas in the 4th. This team made a big mistake not trading for another guard with some shot creation but oh well. Clippers next im expecting another L

  19. MajorTrump

    I just want to call out that it’s pretty pathetic when your home game promo for fans is “free tacos if we hold them under 111 points”. How many games would our fans have won tacos at by now with that?

  20. dys0n_giddey

    Lakers fans acting like they’ve won the WCF’s after beating a severely depleted Wolves squad is funny.

  21. We_Still-Alive44

    Jaden has somehow gotten worse this season

  22. We_Still-Alive44

    I went from wishing this season would never end to praying it does

  23. 1000Isand1

    Well it was fun being the top seed. Going to be a struggle to regain that.
