[Highlight] Rockets can’t score, and Lakers run out the clock to take a 3-0 series lead!
Thank you Stan Van Gundy for declaring this game over. Way to jinx the Rockets into an epic collapse.
To be fair, everyone but Smart gave up.
Smart deserves a ring in his career
No doubt about it.
What Smart brings to the lakers is the spirit of endless hustle, truly lead by doing with amazing basketball mindset
To be fair, we all thought it was over
true - except marcus smart. smart was only laker/person still believing.
They were up 6 with possession and 25 seconds on the clock. They didn’t even need to score, just run the shot clock out and you win. Generational choke.
And they could mess up at least once and still win. Somehow they messed up twice.
Jabari threw it away the second that left his mouth
Funny that he admitted jumping the gun, and decide to not calm the game when lakers was on the edge of winning in overtime
Both the Van Gundy’s dickbag haters and I despise the both of them.
Low iq take
Rockets looked like their soul was taken lmao. They were literally in shock how multiple old men were handling them.
Rockets on Lakestein Island
hahaha
Reed Shepard looked like someone just died on the court
It’s gonna be sad to go from picking on Reed to picking on Wallace Dort AC Ajay SGA 1 mpg of McCain
ayo
Rockets look like they just saw lemonparty for the first time.
I’m equal parts disgusted that you made me remember that, and happy that someone else remembers the days when the deep magic of the Internet was written
This made me remember that my friend group used to prank each other with meatspin on each others laptops
JJ also looks like he got 10 years older, bro looks like he needs a facelift
It’s almost over thank the lord
Careful u/dpatel211 , KD will find you
What’s Katie gonna do?
Not if he goes to the game. Seems KD skipped the bus ride entirely.
Yeah not being on the bench is genuinely fucking insane
This probably one of KD’s burners lol
KD can’t even find his own team
LOL
Laker legend Marcus Smart brought them back for a W
At this rate in these playoffs, soon to not be a joke
bron had some bad turnovers down the stretch but he gets a pass bc 29 13 6 from a 41 year old in the playoffs is insane
Bron was gassed af
He could barely get up the floor in the last minute. Probably one of the weirdest endings ive ever seen in general.
He had some brain dead moments, but also an alleyoop to his son in meaningful playoff minutes
Fucking crazy
He was gassed at the end there, you could see it in the last timeout in regulation, everyone was in the huddle and he was just staring in the void
most everyone out there ws gssed. sengun was smoked. the scene where bron sengun and jabari piling on, Bron rolling him over. Brin Rui and kennard got them close to the end, amart willed the tems corpse over line. rockets youth helped keep their legs longer, but inexperience doesn’t win jump balls.
Marcus Smart is becoming a Lakers legend if he keeps performing like he has been. Never thought I’d say that.
Hopefully he follows Lakers legend Rajon Rondo to lead us to a chip
Fitting way to end this miserable season.
Tari’s mom going thru it on socials offt
Ridiculous Lakers played 5 against 8
Lebron being the inbouder is kinda dumb because Kennard and Ayton are scared of the ball
Yeah I understand they wanted his height and passing ability but Bron should have been the receiver
Lebron turned the ball over multiple times because Kennard didnt want to get the ball. He’s been great this series, but he plays so timid.
Issue is LeBron’s often the best choice for everything. The best inbounder. The best receiver. The best rebounder. The best rebound sealer. The best lobber, the best lob receiver. The best cutter. The best at finding the cutter. One of the best clutch shot takers and play handlers. So yeah in this case it didn’t work out
Marcus Smart was showing crazy BB IQ, just put it all on the line too effort wise.
Seemingly the only Laker keeping his head while exhausted besides Lebron
I think I could sustain myself for another 10 years just off of seeing Shane Goons face at the end of the game lol
He has a generational flop game tonight and it wasn’t enough.
The rockets are completely unserious. Its crazy to have all these young talented players and just watch them standing around as lebron in a wheelchair runs circles around them.
Real talk I think having such an immature coach broke the young teams back as much as losing players
It’s crazy how Durant will once again succeed in pushing his failures off onto anybody else. If it was Bron or Curry in this position ain’t nobody would be blaming JJ or Kerr
They ready for the big dawgs!!! What a gritty ass win

I can’t believe they lost
Braindead team
Let’s go!!
Bro I literally looked at the score on the NBA app, and saw 101-96 with 25 seconds left. I said ok rockets took this game, cause no way they lose this. I check the app again and was shocked to see 101-101 with .9 seconds left. Like huh. Y’all gave the rockets way too much credit. Some of the ugliest basketball I’ve seen in a long time. Wow.
Somebody needs to investigate Tate and Ime.
Rockets snatched defeat from the jaws of victory
Basketball gods were asleep at the wheel when he flopped his way to the post and hit that foul bait shot near the end
MARCUS SMART BABY
Marcus smart took over in OT. Lakers definitely needed him.
Franchise killing loss
Couldn’t understand what SVG was saying all broadcast with the Rockets balls in his mouth the entire time.
