The 2025 NBA playoffs

[Phrazbit]

Kuzma was the worst player in the entire league this season in terms of win shares, the only players even in his realm of suck are rookies, teenagers and 20 year olds, .100 is baseline league average for the stat, Kuzma put up a -.024, one of only 3 players to post a negative number in the stat.

Yeah, it's almost makes you think they weren't the problem.

Pistons really had that game pretty well in hand and just inexplicably fell apart in the middle of the 4th quarter. A 21-0 run to go from up 7 or 8 to down by double digits and game over in about 4 minutes.

It was a huge swing. Detroit wasn’t ready for that.

Kuz is in the playoffs?

 

[BirdGangThing]

minnesota putting it on the Lakers???

minnesota putting it on the Lakers???

The Lakers look too slow to handle the TWolves. At least they did in the 2nd quarter.

 

[95pro]

Lebron is just non existent on defense.

Loving the wolves cooking them now.

 

[BirdGangThing]

lol lakers need anthony davis more than they need luka - at least when it comes to playing the minnesota timberwolves

 

[95pro]

McDaniels is coming along for the wolves.

LeBum grabs Ant as ant is face guarding him full court.

 

[Russ Smith]

Man the Lakers don't get back on D and Minnesota is just crushing them by pushing the ball up and then kicking it out for transition 3's

 

[BirdGangThing]

luka is so lazy on defense he's just literally pushing people in the back

 

[BirdGangThing]

ant taunting the living hell out of luka after draining the 3

 

[BirdGangThing]

i'd still take randle if we could get him

 

[BirdGangThing]

that's a wrap

 

[Dback Jon]

Love the beat down
of LA

 

[Cheesebeef]

The Lakers still have a bunch of picks. If they get their asses handed to them, maybe we can make some hay out of a Reeves/boatload of picks and something else for KD.

 

[BirdGangThing]

if the lakers lose to minnesota is lebron legone?

 

[Cheesebeef]

i'd still take randle if we could get him

I kinda want that to happen only to see @Phrazbit spontaneously combust on site, somehow getting rid of one loathed player (KD) for Randle who he hates even more.

We should get Kuz while we’re at it.

I think they only have their 31’ 1st because somehow Dallas didn’t demand it.

I’ll take that, Reeves, Kencht and their 2033 pick then.

McDaniels is coming along for the wolves.

Ended with 25 tonight

 

[Hoop Head]

McDaniels is coming along for the wolves.

His ascension helped with the KAT trade. His scoring hasn't stepped up much, went from 10.5 ppg to 12.2 ppg, but his rebounding jumped from 3.1 rpg to 5.7 rpg. His steals and blocks also increased from 1.5 to 2.2 a game combined. He's a bigger version of what we wanted Mikal to be as a great wing defender next to Ant. He had a great series against us last season and he's started well now. He's an X-Factor for Minnesota because he is long and quick enough to guard anyone.

I hope Minnesota can knock out LA in 5 or 6. Stealing home court in game 1 is big. They got good experience last year but they need to keep focused and finish the Lakers before Luka and LeBron can hit back.

 

[Phrazbit]

I dislike so many players on this Wolves team, but I would be immensely happy if they crap all over these Lakers.

Redick: Wolves' 'physicality' caught us off guard

The Lakers acknowledged after Saturday's 117-95 loss in Game 1 that they were wholly unready for the raw, bruising physicality of the Wolves.
