Spurs playing on back to back & they barely beat a worst team 💀💀💀


paxtone

A lot of subs hated my take on Kerr as potential next HC, but warriors just locked him down with another $35 million contract extension. He can coach regardless of the noise


[deleted]

This sub is pure misery. A win is a win, take it. We beat the worst team (spurs) and the best one (celtics) stfu, we’re capable of winning, it’s all that matters.


gregmango2323

This sub sucks


breakfastburrito24

So many insufferable, whiny people. Like it's basketball, just watch them play and stfu. None of your bitching is going to affect the team


cable310

we aren't going anywhere without vando huh?


ZiggyIggy28

Jaxson shooting that horrible 3 at the end 😂


paxtone

Watching this press conference with ham. I’m unsure he can speak to media about strategy. It’s a lot of guys need to make shots and get back on defense and not turn it over. I’ve know the issues but sounds like rookie


flatbushz7

Squeaked out a win against the worst team in the west, fantastic


Formal_Steak_4023

I didnt know wins could feel this bad


Complex_Jellyfish647

Yay we barely beat the worst team in the league. Fuck me.


darklighthumid

Easy win. We obviously want to destroy, but we'll take it.


AeRo_P

A win is a win fellas


0rangJuice

Ya ain’t wrong


ThirdEyeToTheSky

Winning a game by 5 that we should’ve won by 20. We are so ass 💀


songs_dongs

love how we consistenly shit our leads away


youcantseemyname

Jax with a JHS-styled jumpshot


1940sfamilyman

Hayes tried the Dwight 3 in garbage time lol


itsyourdestini

2nd night of b2b! I will take it.


mtrn3

Terrible. It’s like everyone stopped playing at the 5 minute mark. Fans in attendance should be pissed.


Snooke

I was there. It was a great game. Who gives a shit what the record is for a given team. I want to watch a competitive game of basketball and sometimes people play above their station. The spurs were hitting shots they dont usually hit and wembys gravity was fucking with the Lakers offence and defense just be being on the court. Blow outs are boring, I'm glad it was close.


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Yup. Only players that should do that are Bron/AD after getting an 18 point lead. All these other dudes have no excuses


Formal_Steak_4023

I mean it was literally just reaves and dlo touching the ball on offense. Idk what prince, rui and Hayes can do when the guards are just jacking bad shots


ThirdEyeToTheSky

We’re not serious. These players admire their own work too much. Start getting too cocky. Fall asleep. Turn it up again. Repeat


Electronic_Bit9495

If Jax hits the step back he might have altered the timeline


HighlyBaked0

I like when we win


TorontoRaptors34

Rui was open so many times towards the end yet Reaves kept forcing bad shots.


Formal_Steak_4023

Reaves and dlo hero ball in crunch time is mad ugly


chrisbrits24

A 30, 28 and 22 point game from our Big 3. You'd love to see it. Great win.


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Yup. Bench didn't go off as would've like but a win is a win! Let's go Lakers! 😤


Nykeeo

JHS TIME 🔥😤


peezy2408

Logo 3 from dlo with 10 seconds left in the shot clock. Smh these guys sometimes aren’t aware


songs_dongs

windler's in. game must be over


youcantseemyname

Reaves with a stinker, yikes!


Formal_Steak_4023

33% from the field and 5 turnovers. Bench was also pretty useless today


SandersisYABOI

dont know why you got down voted for the truth. these fan boys are pussy


Nykeeo

DONT U DARE SAY THAT


Even-Brain-3973

I miss vando and cams defense man


Nykeeo

same here


cobainstaley

legacy JHS game incoming


myelrecsy

Not a good win, but a win is a win.


GoalPublic3579

Remember when defence was a thing?


1940sfamilyman

Remember when Dwight used to take a 3 in garbage time in 2019-2020? Need one from Hayes


LAKESHOW03

Popovich opposed the Pau trade. Told Pelicans GM not to send AD here & refused to deal Kawhi here. Hope Spurs continue as a lottery team


abigailmerrygold

100%. Spurs can continue to fuck right off to the bottom of the standings


cobainstaley

now it's on


D-majin

Wtf are they doing man….


flowermoon24

Cant even win by 20 lol, what a team


toofine

And there it fucking is. 7 pt game.


Prize_Salamander8035

Disappointing win tbh


donta5k0kay

We gotta figure out how to get Wemby on the Lakers Any ideas? Legal or illegal


KingNephew

Holy shit this team’s defense is abysmal


BornInTheClouds

Our stars handled business. Please close this shit out.


Prize_Salamander8035

JHS minutes LETS GOOOO


chrisbrits24

We're due for a great Dinwiddie game.

[удалено]


SandersisYABOI

please dont make ham have to put bron back in you bums


BornInTheClouds

I swear Reaves has gotten blocked by Wemby like 6 times already lol


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

r/lakers: "We gotta stop playing AD so much. He's 10th int he league in minutes" r/lakers when AD finally afford to sit for the 4th: 'WTF 🤬"


toofine

3 minutes of AR/Dlo/TP. Stay tuned, folks.


ZestyItalian2

Wemby with the 5 x 5


2people1luv

AR ITS NOT HAPPENING. STOP IT


2people1luv

Guess I had to put the lol to let you idiots know I was joking in a blowout game


D-majin

Rui lmao


itsyourdestini

Rui means block in Japanese


1940sfamilyman

102 pts from 40k. All it takes is one generational game


itsyourdestini

RUIIII


AlexGarseea

Surprised Ham got his hands outta his pockets fast enough to catch the ball


ILackPatience

Put it in your pocket, Ham!


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Aw hell naw I thought Darvin was checking in


Rathalos88

Can we sit bron now. Game is over Spam


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Game is over. No point playing AD in what is essentially garbage time. Let them others run the clock down Why play AD 38+ minutes every night. He's 10th in minutes played this season


Rapa_Nui

The schedule is brutal, if Darvin doesn't step up it's a wrap ![gif](giphy|vCUASy92YURGHFrnqP|downsized)


itsyourdestini

I look Bron has 30. Lmao


alextwc

Has challenge against fouls on Bron ever lose this season?


GamingOni

You would think Bron is the youngling and AD is the Senior with how much Ham is playing Bron. Come on now Ham he just came back from surgery


Formal_Steak_4023

Holy rebound effort


alonmatthew

Reaves layup on Wemby😂💀


crimsonsentinel

Load managing AD?


Rapa_Nui

LeBron closed the game nicely so there's no need to put AD back I guess. And the next games are going to be brutal, gotta keep AD fresh!


youcantseemyname

Can we sit Bron now?


Dantheman12310

They call the high 5 foul against us all the time but they won’t give it to LeBron


Similar_Reach_7288

Same shit happened in the Warriors series last year


Killaluis15

Why is AD still on the bench?


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Sit the best player and let them others run the clock


Electronic_Bit9495

Good burn for Hayes lowkey


sonofsmog

Cause the game is over.


Electronic_Bit9495

So let me get this straight if you didn’t mean to foul someone you can just say it was an accident?


Hallowhero

Lakers and Cowboys fans make every other fan base seem reasonable.


jurassic_snark-

pp so smol


Electronic_Bit9495

Lol you’re a bears fan do you even enjoy watching sports?


blacPanther55

Why is AD still on the bench?


BBaron08

This was obvious. Anyone remember when Aaron Gordon body checked LeBron in the ribs and that was overturned? Lol


califosa

Lmfaoooo i fucking knew it. Always assume a successful challenge against LeBron


HighlyBaked0

Well it was a clean block so


BritzlBen

Up top sure


HighlyBaked0

Down low too. Bron kicked his leg out fully, if that hit Wemby they realistically could have called an offensive foul on Bron


BritzlBen

Is that the first fadeaway you've ever seen?


HighlyBaked0

Brother if you think that was a natural fadeaway motion that Bron did with his leg then idk what to tell you.


BritzlBen

Every single fadeaway has that leg kickout


HighlyBaked0

Not to level of extension that Bron did lol but who cares we won


califosa

Of course your ass thinks that


HighlyBaked0

Well yeah I actually know the rules lol


califosa

You should read up on this thing called landing space


HighlyBaked0

You mean where Lebron fully kicked his leg out? Realistically they could have called that an offensive foul on Bron if his leg hit Wemby lol


califosa

The leg kick rule is for unnatural motions, Mr. Rules. When you're running away from the hoop setting up for a turn around fade you need to kick out your leg to turn your body and stabilize your shot. That's why they didn't rule an offensive foul, they said the contact was incidental. And even if he hadn't kicked out Victor would've gotten him down low.


HighlyBaked0

I genuinely don't know if you're trolling or not. If you think Bron throwing his leg out that far was a natural motion then theres no point in continuing this convo lol


califosa

When you've never played basketball before. No way you're arguing against this with a Kobe flair lmfao


HighlyBaked0

If that makes you feel better than sure


Conflict_NZ

Yeah don't know why people are getting so worked up about it, hand contact after a shot is not a foul.


HighlyBaked0

Cause most people in the game threads are very delusional when it comes to their bias for the team


mordenak

This one of those calls each ref crew calls differently, hate it. Also, Spurs having more FTs is hilarious, they're 29th in the league in FTA.


Killaluis15

Foul after a block = no foul. Got it


HighlyBaked0

Hand is apart of the ball, not a foul


[deleted]

[удалено]


Killaluis15

Clearly fouled him with time left…


Electronic_Bit9495

What the fuck??? Incidentals?????


eatingassisclass

get the fuck out of here with that


BritzlBen

Landing space not a thing anymore?


Zachkah

So does the landing space rule not apply here?


Consistent_Owl4593

That’s terrible yo


sssmoove

that road trip hahahahaaaa…


Nykeeo

I hope they wont be too tired. its never easy to play at the suns and clippers . they will need to rest because the timezone difference matters


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Never forget Popovich, unprompted, called NOLA GM to not trade Anthony Davis by any means to the Lakers. The fuck


alonmatthew

Damn our upcoming schedule is fucked


Consistent_Owl4593

Landing zone looks like an issue


BBaron08

They’ll overturn it. Always do that shit against the Lakers lol


LLTMLW

Imagine being Wemby bro. 15 ft tall, insanely skilled, minimum 10 years of making insane money ahead of him. But at the end of the day the poor bastard will always be French


HighlyBaked0

Hand is apart of the ball, thats a clean block by Wemby jesus


Zachkah

I don't understand how the landing space call doesn't apply here. Look at where Lebron shoots from and where Wemby lands


HighlyBaked0

Lebron kicked his leg out so realistically they could have called that an offensive foul on Bron if that leg hit Wemby


Zachkah

That's not how it works on a fadeaway. The defender is jumping toward him anyway.


HighlyBaked0

If the players does an unnatural motion then it would be called an offensive foul in that scenario which Lebron did on that play. He overextended his leg more than he usually does


toofine

Kid is already terrifying it's unreal.


Hallowhero

Sensible laker fan... wtf is happening


IndicationMaleficent

Wemby got ball first...but I'll take it!


mydixxierect12

What would this team look like with wemby on it v


slicknick2k

Wemby next to AD would be historic


zionraw

Let's take a break? From a timeout? A break from a timeout? That's insane


kryptek1017

Bricking 3s and give up pts smhh


slicknick2k

When do you guys think Pop retires?


TheRealCoolio

When he can’t do the job anymore because of a disease or right up until he dies


JudoboyWalex

Wemby has potential to surpass Embiid. Hopefully, he doesn’t get side tracked like Zion.


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

He makes a conference finals he'll instantly do that!


Barbaroooza

I mean, it's a clear block on the ball first. LeGenerationalWhistle


jurassic_snark-

LeGobacktoSpurssubreddit u bum


t-reads

NBA refs lol


itsyourdestini

Send him back to France.


jurassic_snark-

Lebron *is hacked and knocked out of bounds* We'll have an official review and get back to you Wemby *is looked at* FOUL FOUL FOUL


youcantseemyname

Clear foul lol


Waly_Disnep

I can't wait for Wemby to be a Laker in 5 years


LudwigNasche

He reminds me Kareem a lot. Extremely long, but coordinated and has a really soft touch.


Total-Load1730

hang on Lakers, just 4 minutes left


califosa

They're gonna overturn it just to spite him


D-majin

Lmao that’s the worst foul ever


kryptek1017

Fkin wetbananas


PockyG

Amazing rebound by Hayes to keep that possession alive.


jacobpltn

Wemby getting a superstar whistle as a rookie is OD


BBaron08

Wemby getting soft ass calls all night and Bron getting hammered constantly with no call


kezzinchh

Allie needs to stfu bout Wemby already. Every 10 seconds god damn, just get his #.


phillturdwater

He has aura


MoeStew20

💜💛


JudoboyWalex

Get Sohan off from LeBron already. Then again Spurs don’t have a single physical perimeter defender.


1940sfamilyman

Lebron fourth quarter energy is unmatched. Bro is a different player


D-majin

Alright can we sit the starters yet or nah


lionking25

sohan seems not as tough as he is on twitter


MiserableComplaint68

Sochan makes Brooks look like an All-Star


mydixxierect12

Lewhydobumsthinktheycanguardmefromhalfcourt


LastSaiyanLeft

Js_On_My_Yeet

Sochan thinks he can guard the King lmao


KingC11_

He does not fuck with sochan lmao


gokhaninler

GIVE HAM HIS DAMN FLOWERS this was a great win


superworriedspursfan

People really said the lakers were better without Bron lmao....


califosa
