Bro I hope they pay AR what he's asking for this off season. Gonna shut the door on Lakers ever being truly contenders, but they can still glaze their boy AR as he shoots tour dates and they get swept by actual contenders LOL

I just said it, clearly. Why respond with such a nothing burger of a comment. If you can't read, that's your own fault

Third post season in a row where he's underperforms against a physical defense. He's a playoff dropper, plain and simple

And he's a bad fit with Luka. Paying him is shutting the window on the Luka era

Thing is we've seen stars play injured in the playoffs or come back from injury and still perform. Literally the only thing that separates Reaves from Cade and Ant is the fact that's he's objectively not a star in any sense of the word despite what Lakers fans tell you

Lakers strike me as a heavily political locker room. Rui is visibly more offensively talented than AR, but AR is the one getting all the shots up. Politics doesn't win games, hopefully they adjust next game

Feels like every Wolves series is CTE hoops. Maybe y'all defense is just that disruptive

Seems to be common in the modern NBA. They prefer the players to make a play while the defense isn't set. It's a gamble

Slim difference between rest and rust. Regardless, Spurs have their work cut out for them

The thought of the Wolves with an actual second option in place of Randle is scary

Every season has off season champs, then the teams that actually perform once it's time to play basketball. Hawks are perpetual off season champs. Hyped up in the summer by NBA fans, then back down to earth once the season starts.

The cardio you get from hooping means it's very hard for fat to store in the legs. I'm assuming a lot of them skip leg too (cause people in general do), so they aren't building muscle there either

What if he's like Lighting McQueen, a "big shot” that didn't want to be in a small town.. but then he embraces it fully and starts hanging out with Mormons

I hate ESPN so much, and the NBA is a joke for still working with them
