BOX SCORE

Lakers starters played until halfway in the 3rd quarter. No Booker, no Beal, and Durant only played in the first half. Lakers bench was atrocious. Cam Reddish, Christian Wood, and Rui Hachimura combined for 7 points. Collectively they were a -93.

People complain about superteams, but we all really want superteams haha

We want multiple superteams. One team beating on all the others a la KD Warriors isnt fun.

Actually I kinda prefer an old school Spurs like team to face off against the super team like those spurs Heat Finals. One team with superstar free agents teaming up, and one team with chemistry and good fit and continuity playing unselfish basketball.

I understand the sentiment against teaming up, but Tim Duncan was a Doc Rivers decision away from teaming up in Orlando and then was fortunate enough to pair up with Kawhi for his last runs. A lot of luck there. The reason super teams form in the first place is to beat the insanely well constructed teams like the Spurs and the Warriors.
