[All-Access] Austin Reaves hits the clutch buzzer-beater for the Lakers to win it in Minnesota. The shot caps a 28-point, 16-assist performance.
Inside the NBA thinks he jeremy lin lol
Lin got like 2 weeks at most of that run AR been doing this for 2 years now lmaooooo
Lin and AR situations are very different. Lin was on a 10 day contract about to be cut and was forced into the starting lineup. Nobody knew what he could do and for 2 weeks he tore up the league and everyone in his path. AR already has had many 30 and 40 point games before this season including games where he singlehandedly carried the Lakers without Lebron or other stars. So this performance tonight is nothing new. Also AR isn’t in danger of being cut from the Lakers.
You aren’t ever going to get Jeremy Lin hype again but AR hype is kinda like it at a small level amongst fans. It’s like that to Lakers fans though.
I get why Laker fans are hyped about him and they should be. He went undrafted, is a product of their g-league system that improved quickly and made the main roster where he turned out to be a major piece for the team next to Lebron and eventually Luka.
However, anyone saying that Reaves’ hype is similar, even at a smaller level, to Lin is crazy. In 2 weeks time Lin went from sleeping on someone’s couch, praying he still will have a job to international celebrity/icon, face of the NY knicks, and more popular than Melo and Amare. Reaves is not the face of the Lakers, and he will never be more popular than Lebron and Luka as long as either is still playing there while he is.
But Lakers fans do have good reason to be hyped about Reaves in general, especially considering his path to the NBA.
We are hyped, but Jeremy Lin level? He’s been doing this for years it’s not really a surprise. Linsansity came out of nowhere.
Yea a more comparable scenario today would be if mac mcclung balls out for the pacers right now
Lmao they really said “another random Asian guy having a good game” 💀
Wait till they find out he’s from Arkansas
They figured Arkansas is in Asia
So offensive.
Kenny’s the type of guy to not be offensive when calling him Jeremy Lin, I think he’s just really bad at analogies
Naw Kenny is straight trash for that one
They needed to clown kenny more for that
they were damn near saying it’s disrespectful and he doubled and tripled down on it
Talking about “the 50 ball came out of nowhere” like Reaves didn’t drop 45/7/7 last year the second he went into the game as a first option
Reavesanity brother!
That’s how you know these guys don’t watch the NBA this is not surprising to anyone that’s been watching Austin Reaves play since he entered the league.
Correction, Kenny and Shaq thinks he’s Jeremy Lin. Kenny especially. Charles and Ernie said he’s been pretty good these past couple years and it’s nothing like Linsanity
If they said that it’s even more reason they should’ve let those dumbasses find new jobs after TNT.
Man, you’re NBA All-Access. You’re not competing with anyone for upvotes. Why would you cut the clip that way instead of showing the entire sequence?
IKR. or maybe a couple of replays from different angle.
The Gobert abuse continues
I’m never listening to this sub again. I’ve never seen a group of people religiously defend a dude who gets religiously abused on their best attribute besides colts fans on Anthony Richardson lmao
Reaves is the first Laker since Kobe Bryant in 2005-06 to start a season with 5 consecutive games of at least 25 PTS. He also joins Jerry West as the only players in Lakers history to record 5 straight games of 25+ PTS and 5+ AST in the first 5 games of the season. West did this in 1970-71
That’s great. Why the fuck did you cut the clip this way lol
Yeah no kidding.
Boo this loser.
Let’s all downvote the nba
Lebron could never
Lmao boys look we’ve got a fucking loser over here
I dont see Brons name on that list do you?
I didn’t say he was? Your entire reddit profile is geared around making hateful comments about the at-worst 2nd best player of all time, that’s pathetic shit and also why I told you to shut the fuck up. Get some help bruh
Edit: sorry I had another look, it also appears to be geared around getting downvoted by your own teams fanbase for your dogshit ball knowledge, lol
when? i made 1 comment lol
Your username, and your literal comment history suggest otherwise lmao
its just a username bro relax
Relax? I’m chill bro I’m not the one dedicated to popping up everywhere I can to say negative things about one of the GOATs of the sport lol. Maybe if my username was u/StephIsACuck you’d have a point
you’re the one who responded to me so you obvs upset lol. go ahead and use that username. I aint as sensitive as you to care lol
He’s our white boy no one can have him 😤
Bro really is Hillbilly Kobe
ITS SNOWTIME ❄️
Lol so u got Luka, Reaves, uh Knecht, Labia as a small ball 4. Just need Alex.Len back to complete Snowtime
We have maxi kiebler
He just signed with Real Madrid
Maxi Kleber is perennially injured or he would qualify
Oh damn I thought he was injured on the bench well good for him hope he kills it out there
I didn’t mean to mislead. He is indeed injured on the bench. It’s just the last 3 seasons he has spent 34 to 43 games. Post trade, he has played 1 gam3 for the lakers
he’s been on fire, so mad that i passed up on him in fantasy 😭
greatest thing since white bread
himsanity
Gobert is responsible for Covid hitting America, is on the Epstein files and now this? Deport!
what a weird comment
It’s pretty funny, not that deep bro
Arena is so loud
wow
Laker for life
Please stop
How did he go undrafted?
He turned down being drafted in the second round to sign with the Lakers
I think it should be a point of emphasis that Detroit was as only offering him a 2-way contract. So he’d rather have a 2WC with his favorite team.
Had the Pistons gave him a guaranteed rookie contract, we wouldn’t have a chance to get him!😨
Look how lost Rudy Gobert was smh
That shit got quiet real quick LMAO
Since when has the shot clock been round? I like it!
Love to see Ayton sprint up the court like that at the end, man loves being on this team so far
