Celtics 13-47 from 3 in game 7 missing shot after shot reminding me of the Rockets vs Warriors in 2018

@dios_miz It really is impossible to credit one player without tearing down another isn’t it?

@JSMonYT It's overwhelmingly better than AR.

Everyone mentions Rui’s 3pt shooting in the playoffs (which has been great) but I’ve been more impressed with his defense. Not perfect but significantly better than the regular season. Idk why he can’t do this more consistently

Marcus Smart gotta be the best 6’3 defender of all time right?

High volume 3pt shooting Rui Hachimura is such a fun player

I really wish Deandre Ayton knew how to absorb contact around the rim offensively He gets a height mismatch but then still fades away if he gets the ball. Virtually unable to punish switches

@JSMonYT Feel like it’s been months

JAKE LARAVIA MADE A 3PT SHOT

Luke Kennard’s first made 3 (and FG) since game 4. Good sign

Lakers really ran into the best two years of the Denver Nuggets. They’ve had injuries and performance drop off every year since

@Educated_Kid24 I agree and I would point some blame to them for it. Both Rui and Kennard have passed up some open looks, which they weren’t doing in games 1-3

@JSMonYT Our two best shooters having 5 attempts in 2 games is criminal

Lakers individual 3pt shooting in 1st 3 playoff games: Kennard: 9-17 (52.9%) Rui: 9-17 (52.9%) Smart: 8-16 (50%) LeBron: 7-16 (43.8%) Team %: 46.1% Past 2 games: Kennard: 0-5 Rui: 3-5 (60%) Smart: 3-9 (33.3%) LeBron: 0-9 Team%: 24.5% Lots of stuff going wrong but that's a big part of it right there

“Lakers are better without Luka Doncic” crowd rn

If the Lakers would’ve played this entire game like they did in the final 5 minutes (effort wise) they’d be up by 20

Another brutal offensive game for Luke Kennard so far

Austin Reaves looked great in his 1st quarter back after missing a month with that grade 2 oblique strain 5 mins 8 points 2 assists 2-3 FG 1-2 3PT

Deandre Ayton has 3 offensive rebounds in 8 minutes. I’d say that’s a pretty good start

@KM9401018817906 It's meant to say points. Editing software must've glitched lol

@JSMonYT Am I reading this wrong? Why does it say Kennard had 23 turnovers in game 2?

The Lakers usage of Lebron/Kennard/Smart through 4 playoff games so far has been pretty insane Lebron: 155 minutes Kennard: 157 minutes Smart: 139 minutes This to me is the biggest reason they fell flat in game 4. Would love to see Reaves back even in limited mins to help here

@Lekan_Oriade Can’t say i blame him. Averaging like 38mpg with Thompson and Okogie chasing him on defense lol

@JSMonYT Kennard ran out of breath ending of game 3 and 4
