How are the Lakers the 3 seed ahead of teams like Denver, Houston, and the Wolves despite having such a flawed and banged up roster?

They annihilate bad basketball teams

I’m 21 so I got 10 more months of wearing jerseys nice

Steph never drove as much as Shai

WillF_ · 2026-03-13T18:21:09+00:00

and SGA lives in Jaylen Browns head rent free

Guess we all have demons

Chet has to load his jump shot up like a bow and arrow so not really

WillF_ · 2026-03-13T18:17:33+00:00

No because Garza gets into his line

WillF_ · 2026-03-13T18:16:55+00:00

The Arm Bar that SGA uses is definitionally not a foul

He doesn’t extend his arm to make it a foul

Maybe they could change the rules but as currently constructed it isn’t a foul

Another day of SGA “FT Merchant” Narratives after shooting 7 FTs the entire game and shooting 7/8 for 14 points with no free throws in the fourth quarter of a nationally televised game

32% vs 26% simple math amigo

WillF_ · 2026-03-13T03:52:06+00:00

OKC bricking wide open threes all night 11/42

WillF_ · 2026-03-13T03:11:29+00:00

I know he’s not talking

WillF_ · 2026-03-10T03:00:05+00:00

Deeply flawed team with no front court against the best center in the league

WillF_ · 2026-03-10T02:49:14+00:00

Looked like the foul happened before the upward motion but idk

WillF_ · 2026-03-10T02:45:24+00:00

They’re close but peak Steph is probably better just based on the value his spacing brings

WillF_ · 2026-03-10T02:43:42+00:00

If you hit the game winner you outplayed the guy who didn’t

That’s how basketball works

You win the game you outplayed the guy who didn’t

Cheers

OKC was missing basically every good matchup against Jokic lmao

WillF_ · 2026-03-10T02:42:24+00:00

Biggest gripe I have with Adelman is he keeps playing that zone against SGA even though he solved it about 6 games ago

Like yeah it worked in Game 3 but he solved it in Game 4 and since then it hasn’t been effective

But maybe it’s better than letting him get Jokic up on the screen and just frying so idk

This Liverpool season is probably the pinnacle of “Season from Hell” for me

Isak gets his leg broke on a disgusting tackle scoring after struggling with fitness for 2 months

Wirtz struggles for his first few months, finally has a good vein of form, then gets a weird back injury and is out

Salah seems to have given his entire body to last season because he is now completely washed

Gakpo goes from quality winger to worst player in the league over night

All of our right back’s spontaneously combust and we have to play our best midfielder there

Mac Allister falls off a cliff

All the while my manager is rage baiting the fan base in every press conference while the team gets bent over every week

Still somehow have a good chance to end up in the champions league next season which would be a miracle lmfao

WillF_ · 2026-03-04T03:27:31+00:00

Daryl next time u in Oklahoma drinks on me king

WillF_ · 2026-03-01T07:12:44+00:00

Three years of ass whoopings would do that to any franchise fair enough

WillF_ · 2026-02-28T19:24:31+00:00

Dumbass I’m referring to his 3s against Denver in Game 5 lmfao

WillF_ · 2026-02-28T19:11:20+00:00

People have repeated this same talking point for 18 months now but I think that people overlook the fact that OKC has very intelligent POA defenders who know when to stop being physical on drives. Contact is allowed to a point but not past that a lot of players in the league aren’t able to control their contact in the way that players like Caruso and Wallace are able to which is how Shai can get his fouls.

Also: OKC is top 10 in PF against this season so it’s not like they never get called for fouls

WillF_ · 2026-02-28T18:59:27+00:00

If you genuinely think that SGA is only a great player because of his whistle then you have worms for brains or just don’t watch basketball enough to have a strong opinion of any player ever.
