I don't know if I care more about the Wolves winning or Luka/James losing.
This PBP guy is awesome, quips so far:
“held him like a grudge”
“Got his air fryer out ready to cook”
There was another good one I can’t remember
Just called a really bad inbound pass by the Lakers “a little room service”
”LeBron is not a complainer.”

Compared to Donkic and Ant he’s not but they are next level
No surprise Wolves come out flat
finch needs to realize we are infinitely better on offense not playing Rudy in this series from the jump. It leads to stagnant iso ball and no one is in flow. It doesn’t play to our advantages in this series at all

We are bigger and more athletic than the Lakers so I’m fine with Rudy out there so we can defend the perimeter. We need to get out on the break after every Laker miss.
Well this is over not even halfway thru the 2nd

problem is we don’t as they just iso Luka on Rudy bia pick and roll. He doesn’t switch well onto Luka which is exactly how the mavs killed us
Doncic is sandbagging. I get he’s having some poopy butt issues but he’s out there and he’s a drama queen so we need to guard him appropriately

Luka is gonna win more than he loses. We paid too much for Rudy but he’s a monster presence on defense
Doncic is somehow super sick but of course can still complain to the refs about every call. And the Oscar goes to…
My God you have to respect Doncic for his talent but that dude is a dick.

dude has such a punchable face
ANT MAN!!!!!!!!!!!
The WOLVES on a 13-1 run to go up by 12 with 39 seconds left.
The Wolves are now 19-5 in their last 24 games.
Lebron with 38 points and 10 rebounds not bad for a 40 year old but the Wolves 3 head monster of McDaniels 30 points, ANT 29 points, and Randle 22 points is a tough combination.
Points in the Paint
Wolves 56
Lakers 26
Rudy and the Wolves front line are doing their jobs not allowing the Lakers to get easy baskets.
The Lakers were better than the Wolves tonight from the 3 point line and still lost.

Is he a bigger whiner than his own teammate?

Yes! He gets out of bed and thinks he’s been fouled.

He does his fair share, but in comparison to most I wouldn’t agree with the label either. ESPECIALLY compared to Luka, and yes unfortunately Ant.

LeBron is the flopper.
Saw this:
I don't know why Minnesota fans are shocked the Wolves won last night. Alex Rodriguez's teams never lose in Minnesota, in the playoffs.

Well, I've seen this game before. Wolves and their fans have hope, but that's about it. MN gets within 4-5 and then LAL gets it back to 8-9.

Ant going to try carry the wolves to the finish line
Dončić has still not committed a foul.

WOLVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wolves out score the Lakers 32-19 in the 4th quarter to win 116-113
CLUTCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heck of a challenge by Finch.
Whoever the announcer is was audibly shocked James committed a foul.

I thought the Jordan love fest was bad in 90s. Though LeBron love fest makes Jordan’s look hateful.

Trusting Ant to challenge is big.

I stand corrected. Wow.

ANT is a Bad Man! 😁
Refs finally got one correct at the end & had the courage to make the call. Not OVER yet though. But looking GOOD!

WOLVES
I watched the Denver and Dallas series last year on a whim, and have been watching the series against LA this year (again on a whim), and I found myself actually watching most of the game where I normally just sort of tune in to sports... I haven't had this much fun watching basketball since my childhood (although I think I said that last year at this time haha)...
I think MJ peed a little laughing at those stats.

0 PTS0-2 FG12 MIN-13That's the alleged joke of a GOAT's stats today in the fourth quarter.

Father Time still undefeated. He can’t play 46 min and it was braindead from reddick to try gamble and think he could

It was their only move, the Lakers depth is brutal, they have none.
Their only chance at coming back is a complete Wolves collapse. They don't hold the cards to make it happen on their own.

You have to try play 2-3 min without each of them and hold it together. Lebron moreso than Luka. The same as they did in game 1. And given Luka is doing everything on offense, having them sit there in ISO offensively does nothing and Lebron is nowhere near the same guy in 1v1 defending, particularly when he’s tired. You get something out of vando, Goodwin or Vincent at least as a spot up shooter for Luka rather than a tired ass Lebron who can’t get to the rim or have the legs to shoot a spot up.
jj gave into LeBrons ego. At some point you have to sit him. You can get away with it with players that are ants age, not at 40 even with as good of care as LeBron takes of his body
In the first half Randle only plays 10 minutes (3 fouls), McDaniels only plays 6 minutes (3 fouls) and the Wolves shot only 6 of 30 (20 %) on three pointers but lead by 10 points (59-49).
Rudy Gobert is unstoppable leading both teams in points and rebounds. He has 15 points on 7 of 10 shooting with 8 rebounds (4 offensive).
The Lakers have NO answer for Rudy Gobert!!!!!!

On Finch that they haven’t took advantage of the the Lakers having no height and working it to Gobert…the Lakers have no answer. That said it has to be all lobs and players driving and dishing. He can’t make a shot outside of a layup or dunk. He’s also killing it on the offensive boards.
Rudy with 19 rebounds 7 offensive
Amazingly inconsistent officiating in this game
lakers have no answer for Rudy!
LeBron elbows Reeves in the face and they call a foul on Walker. Sure bro
This team is better with the KAT trade there I said it
The Wolves close out the game on a 16-8 run to win 103-96 and take the series!!!!!!
So much for the Wolves can't beat Luka they just knocked him out in 5!!!!!!!
Rudy put up 27 points on 12 of 15 shots with 24 rebounds (9 offensive).
Randle scores 23 points
