[Highlight] Austin Reaves drives, misses the layup, gets irate about not getting a foul call, and Alex Caruso soars for the powerful dunk at the other end (with a replay).
Lakers’ timeout in the 4th quarter.
Reaves took on the persona of Luka in this series
Give him some credit. He’s always been like this.
It is with a heavy heart to conclude that Austin Reaves is a playoff liability.
There was another play where he flails all over Hartstein looking for the foul and starts having a tantrum for not getting the call. I want this bitch off the team.
If you don’t want AR on this team for his playstyle… I have some bad news for you about Luka.
and Lebron also lol, like where was he last 5 years when Lebron and AD didn’t get call
Reaves getting traded after this series
Nope. He is Donkey’s mini me🤣
I know that’s the consensus in this sub, but that sure looked like a foul on Hartstein to me. Clearly smacks his elbow
Lmfaooo immediately looked for refs
Keep looking for the foul in Cancun
Reaves, biggest foul baiter in the league btw.
TBH there’s really no distinguishing between the most egregious foul baiters. It’s all bullshit
there’s a noticeable difference between guys who shoot 15 free throws a game while making no baskets and looking lost offensively aside from just driving and flailing and luka/shai/whoever who are good enough to score without the ft’s
Also doesn’t help that every laker that does it starts bitching to the refs and gives up a layup on the other end lol. Lebron, Luka, AR all do the same thing and its like 10 free transition points a game and totally kills any chance they have to make runs
People will not admit this but it’s true.
There are players who are unguardable because if you don’t foul them, they will drop 40+ on your head with or without FTs.
Then there are bums who make their dough from flopping and get exposed in the playoffs.
I don’t disagree, it’s a part of the game. But reaves is IMO the biggest culprit of the “foul baiting” in the league currently. Even though I don’t have an issue cause both Kobe and MJ hunted the same things reaves and Shai do.
There’s 3 levels, 1. Hunting fouls “Shai and MJ/kobe)
Advjia doesn’t flop, he just charges in and gets slapped around
Yeah its SGA who is the worst
Just say you started watching basketball after curry or say that you don’t watch it past highlights and clips. Cause SGA doing the same shit every all time great did
Without question
He and Smart are probably tied.
Was he going for the foul? I thought he was arguing it’s a goaltend? (Which it wasn’t)
Reaves’ irate/jumping wasn’t the problem for the fast break dunk as he’s the furthest, Rui and Bron was
This is the core problem of the Lakers.
This is the Lakers’ core 😬
This is part I don’t like the current Lakers, all of them throwing their hand up complaining and not get back to defense. If you think you got fouled, go foul harder and make the ref know about it. Not just standing there doing nothing
Anyone notice Marcus Smart shoulder checking Dort as he ran down the court? Sneaky snake! 🐍
LeBron definitely taught him that one
celtics fans still feeling brons belt
Thunder “fan” simping for LeBron lol. What a fucking fake ass fan
LeBron taught him to not only complain but also better not get back on D
Lakers lost the plot
Ah yes. Who needs Luka, when we got AR right here.
At 0:18 you can hear JWill say “Old ass” to Caruso! 😂
I think AR is looking for a goaltend here? But clearly no foul or goaltend
That’s the Lakers since LeBron came to LA. Bitching about every no call and not going back on defense. It’s only fitting that Caruso made the dunk with LeBron at him.
Laker fans/kobe guys wanted lebron gone because of the money he makes LOL… Good luck if he does leave with Reaves on a max or near max as your number 2
