    I just received word that this is a feel out game for LeBron and the Lakers. RIP to the Nuggets season.

  2. RealVawtra

    Lebron will play his ass off the first 3 quarters but fatigue will hit him in the 4th and nuggets run away with it🙏🏻

  3. No_Pension_4276

    I think Lebron is gonna pop off from three tonight- reversion to the mean and all.

  4. lemondhead

    Oh shit, it’s almost time. In the immortal words of Mario, “Here we go!”

  5. BrockSmashgood

    hey Jack, you think the Lakers are gonna shit the bed again?

    I don’t think there’s any way it’ll happen, but I wouldn’t blame LeBron or AD for mailing it in. No need to aggravate those injuries and risk a more complicated surgery. Nichuskin played through a foot injury, and he seems to not have recovered fully over a year later. At least he won a Cup though.

  7. lemondhead

    Just got an alert from the ol NBA app about LeBron arriving for the game. Cope, Adam.

    I’m scared adam silver made the call and it will be refball today. we already survived refball last game but another one, would cause my arteries to explode.

  9. boiled_spagoot

    Raptors fan here! I hate the Lakers. Does anyone have a link for a stream?

  10. skynet2175

    I can’t wait any longer. Inject this sweep into my veins now plz.

  11. Glove_Upset

    Stephen A. has a voice for print media.

  12. heyimdong

    Bring on the wannabe-warriors, Jimmy Butler’s Band.

  13. UnderratedNightmare

    They already talking Lakers off season moves!! My god they couldn’t even wait!

  14. dnvrrrr

    I beg that we sweep them tonight. for so many reasons. because they’re the lakers… im sick of the coverage, the espn broadcasts… the refs… Rui… it’s all shit.

  15. BrockSmashgood

    Decided to check into the pregame and these chuckleheads are talking about what getting swept would mean for Lebron’s kid’s draft.

  16. mx30mark

    First minutes of coverage is Lakers, really!

  17. Glove_Upset

    Ham isn’t starting my favorite Laker, DLo

  18. PipeTough7917

    A sweep is ideal, but if they don’t win tonight they get a chance to win at home in front of the long-suffering fans.

  19. dnvrrrr

    there was someone who sold me their soul for the win last game. anyone else wanna step up?

    “End it tonight! End it tonight!”

    -Moach, Game 6 vs. Phoenix

  21. BrockSmashgood

    hey Jack, you ever sweep the Lakers in the pale moonlight?

    ![gif](giphy|txZYqb8B52qTC)

  22. BrockSmashgood

    oh goodie, SAS now throwing out super cool “Celtics just shouldn’t have publicized Udoka’s fuckery” takes

  23. PipeTough7917

    ESPN’s gonna put the finals in a tiny box while they read off tweets from random stars in Cancun

  24. waffelman1

    Lmao ESPN went from talking about what the Lakers need to do, what they’ve done wrong, what they’ve done well, to where the Celtics went wrong, then are going back to talk about Lebrons legacy. Lmao I thought the finals had 2 teams but I guess there’s only two teams across the two conference finals too. Shills

  25. Glove_Upset

    Is ESPN trying to promote their nightmare matchup (Heat-Nuggets) by talking about the Celtics’ and Lakers’ off-season? Doesn’t seem like very good marketing.

  26. YoungTheGiant_

    I expect them to also use Beasley.

  27. Panicinlondon222

    JAMAL ONE MORE NUCLEAR QUARTER PLEASE.

  28. trevstan1

    It’s a wave of inevitablity. Nugs in 4.
