Celtics fans having PTSD about this

6 turnovers

He was Marcus Shart today.

Yo!!! you also reposted. some reason that other post game thread got removed.

I didn’t understand when you first commented this but now I do.

Here is my gold star to you. 🌟

Reed’s clutch middy to ease our monentum and strip on Bron for the easy two were ice cold plays.

Crazy how LeBron and Reed have now traded steals off each other in the final minute of two separate games to completely turn momentum. Great scripting by the NBA writers.

Reed had a potential 6 point swing by himself in clutch time that pretty much sealed the game.

Of all the time Lakers shot like shit in 4th quarter.

If I was a rockets fan this would make me even more infuriated for blowing game 3

What if Houston and Denver both come back and win their series lol the memes will be delicious

Nobody liked what Ime had to say publicly after game 3, partially because nothing sounds good after a loss like that one.

But I did think he had a sharp line for moving on to the next game when he said he told his team, “Don’t let this one beat you twice.”

Amen shot poorly but his D was incredible IMO

You could say that about the Laker crowd too

Really disappointing compared to some eastern playoff teams notably NY and BOS

No just good defense on Rockets’ part. Nothing to do with heart.

I’d much rather see Bronny on the court than Vando

A game where the other team is bombing you with 3s and JJ got Ice Cold Luke and the Cadaver of Vanderbilt out there instead of giving LeBron his 4-6 minutes of Bronny power-up time smh

Think Lebron was legit missing that spark in the first half lmao

Bronny could’ve had 5 points

I honestly was shocked that I didn’t see him

Frankly if we take it to 7 i’ll be pleasantly surprised

I’d prefer Lakers to win but I’m pulling for a game 7 just because that’ll be the biggest game of the season. Potential first ever reverse-sweep in nba history on Lebron with Luka/KD possibly getting rushed back.

Cinema

Caught that too lol. I was in disbelief.

Unreal bball IQ lmao

I was losing my fucking mind at that shit

Thought Im the only one noticing that, literally thought what a low IQ move for not delaying the ball

I genuinely thought “there it is, there is the series right there”, becuase they had like 35 seconds left after he got blocked, get a 3, cut it to like 1, foul, now its back to a 1 possesion game. And you know they’d miss a FT at least

We are not prepared for what happens to this sub if this is the first blown 3-0 lead in NBA history

Would genuinely be a “you either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain” moment for Lebron if Lakers blow this. Bro completed Basketball and could’ve retired at any moment, but to become the first team in history to throw that lead is just crazy man.

Warriors blew a 3-1 lead once and could never hear the end of it, can’t imagine what this would be like

Lebrons legacy is sealed but him being the first player to blow a 3-0 lead would haunt him forever

Skip Bayless would instantly die of euphoria

You didn’t love JJ drawing up an ATO for him instead of Rui or Kennard at the 6 sec mark? You don’t love the 12 FT and flopping?

Reaves is a foul baiter and he isn’t actually good in the playoffs like pick a struggle

Honestly happy for him. He had such a rough first few games with lots of missed open shots which culminated with the massive turnover at the end of regulation in game 3. Got nice revenge against Bron today.

Ime discovered the WILD adjustment that you should play the guy who’s basically your only capable ballhandler that can shoot more, and definitely during crunchtime.

He started ³⁄₁₁ with 8 points.

Those final 4 points were absolutely clutch though.

Sengun keeps mentioning it in his answers to the media, but nobody else seems to remember they fought back from 3-1 to force game 7 just last year.

Ngl while still losing this series would be embarrassing, but at least you’d pushed to at least 6 and maybe 7, better than getting swept after what happened in game 3.

Rockets with KD:

0-1

Rockets without KD:

2-2

They’re figuring it out themselves.

The same way that we did last year with the 3-1 comeback attempt against the Warriors.

At some point I’d love for the young core to get a series lead and not do stupid stuff.

I mean most of this core had this near exact experience last postseason lol

mods gotta wait for approval from Lakers fans

First one got deleted for some reason

First thread was removed by mods.

A win for OKC as well if this goes to 7.

Just let these two teams beat up each other more, before one gets the honor of getting swept by OKC in the next round lol

It was a mini miracle the lakers were up 3-0 to begin with

You gotta assume they can get 1 more game to close it out but this is one of those series where a 0-3 comeback seems more plausible than usual. Very similar to 2023 Miami Boston

That’s Dorian Finney-Smith money

Maxi making $11-12m too lol

Lakers dont have a lot of playmaking once Kennard has been absolutely clamped. Cant rely on Lebron the whole game. Reaves shot horribly. Smart has his usual 50:50 bad game.

Bron has lost his legs in both games.

We’ll be able to count games where he’s better from 3 than from the field on one hand. Cherish it

Both teams could be perfectly rested with Luka/KD and they’d get swept.
