I don't go bashing Lebron, but every single Laker fan poster in here who were ADAMENT that this would go back to Denver 2-2.

mmmmm.....MMMMMMM

This crow is DELICIOUS

"Lakers found their adjustment and will take control of this series"

"No way Nuggets can sustain this"

"Lakers can't be beat at home this postseason"

"Lakers know how to win, Nuggets don't"

But hey, Lakers played it close and almost got the dub. Another moral victory. Up 4-0 in that for the Lakers

AwesomeBrian · 05-22-2023, 10:24 PM

Lakers in 9! Book it!

You leaving too?

Bubble Alpaca vs. Himmy will be fascinating.

Curious if they'll stick Butler on him.

Bam's basically a dollar tree Yoakur. Similar playstyles.

I like the Heat's overall depth though, especially now with Herro returning, but it should be a close series.

Adios LeBroom!

15 down at half and the W on the road; just Wow. Four more boys.

I really did not expect it. They've seemingly gotten more focused with each round.

Once he retires they probably won’t even watch basketball anymore. They won’t have anything to talk about.

Those last two Laker shots made my week. Lakers lose and Leflop misses the last two shot. Priceless!!

Ferg1945 · 05-22-2023, 10:27 PM

What will Nick Wright have to say tomorrow?

fabiani12333 · 05-22-2023, 10:27 PM

This sweep doesn't hurt LeQueen's legacy. He's 38 years old -- what did you expect? It's amazing he's still doing what he's doing, leading a team through the playoffs.

If he were in his prime, he could have made the difference in the series. But this is the Jokic era -- he won two of the last three MVP's after all.

You’re not so lucky. It’s fun to see people like you to know how much better I am and the ones closest to me are doing. Tell us more how an athlete deserves to get hurt or whatever you all were saying

What is, things that Joel Embiid would say if he was on the Lakers.

Makakilo Cards · 05-22-2023, 10:27 PM

Tired of all you Lebron haters acting like you're real Laker haters. We all know you won't be around in 5 years.

The play-in Lakers battled the #1 seed Nuggets really close, the #2 seed Celtics are getting curb stomped by the play-in Heat.

Onepocketj · 05-22-2023, 10:29 PM

Guess I gotta root for the Nuggets to win it once in their history

That's part of being a modern NBA fan -- hatin' on LeBron.

It's good for the NBA and its fans that he's still good enough to lead a playoff team.

He did start walking off.

Ego was hurting obviously. Then he saw a little kid in the crowd shed 1 long tear, LeBron turned around and gave some of the weakest congrats we've ever seen.

Don't overthink this like some did.

A sweep was just beautiful.

Congrats Nuggets. A deserving West Finals champion. Giving me Spurs feelings.

Heatles in 7.

No way I'm betting that. Just my 2 testes.

I just laugh it off most times. They’ve had to watch lebrons dominance for 20 years and witnessed him cemented #2 as the greatest player to ever step on the court. And he’s still got a little left in the tank.
