Go Lakers !!!

Magic squeaked by the lakers after Luka hesitates and defers to LeBron and LeBron bricks the game winner.

Out of curiosity. Are the Lakers fans ready to move on from LeBron if no title again this year? I have not kept a pulse in their neighborhood.

I have been ready to move off of him. He is hurting the team by keeping Bronny with the team too as they have dropped decent players to keep LBJ's kid on the roster. Drafting him was a negative for the team despite appeasing LBJ and letting him make history as a father/son combo.

I can't wait to see the quality of players we could get to replace both LBJ and Bronny with. We could have used some help while LBJ took his time at the beginning of the season. So much time, missed games, that he isn't even eligible for a lot of the player honors this season.

He is playing out of his mind for a player of his age. No one has ever played so well at 43. But the team would do better with some younger players, IMHO.

If we’re lucky, we’ll eclipse the 85 point mark in this game.

Jerry Buss is rolling in his grave seeing his kids kowtowing to LeBron. The Lakers should be above that.

Lake show is a family show.

Who is more clutch, Luka, Deandre or Leflop?

Only Jeanie now that the team has been sold. The other siblings have been paid off, and she has retained 15% of ownership in the team, including her governorship which lets her continue to run the team on a daily basis.

Suns trainers awful this yr

I just want to see good effort throughout, win or lose. No standing around. No one-on-one play unless you have an advantage and do take advantage. I'm talking to you, Jalen Green.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Unfortunately, I’m pretty okay with not pulling the trigger to buy the Suns Team Pass when I was about to about three weeks ago.

 

[SactownSunsFan]

Any idea on what Jordan Goodwin's status is? You know he'd love to stick it to the Lukas.

I'd gladly take 100% effort.
