Whether a team is under or over performing, who's gonna be a complete opposite by the end of the season compared to now?

The Lakers. They’ve played a mostly soft schedule and have been propped up by historical free throw numbers by the refs in all but two of their games… and they lost both games where they didn’t get ridiculously blatant ref help (including the 44 point blowout).

Either the refs will continue to rig it for them all season, or they’ll be lucky to make the play-in.

This is such a tired take. Lakers are 3rd in dunks, 5th in lay ups and almost dead last in shooting 3s.

Lakers are 6th in free throw rate.

Literally lakers type of system matches the rest of the leagues system.

There’s almost no favorability it’s all style of play.

To top it off you bring up lakers not getting favorable calls against the Sixers? You do know Embiid gets the whistle more favorable than any laker player right?

People dont realize our two main paint defenders are Bron and AD who both are good at not fouling.

The players who blow by Dlo Reaves or Prince get funneled to Bron and AD who either put up a good contest or give up an easy shot, rarely do they fall for a 11 pump fakes or try to hack player once they get beat.

Let them sound like idiots repeating the same rigged shit over and over.
