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.

Preseason games are probably as good as regular season Gleague games

I slept halfway through the game. I thought it was over in favor of the Lakeshow.

You realize this is just pre-season right? Calm down

Kusomura, an overrated bum who got a $51/3y deal:

3 pts on 1/5 shooting, 1 reb in 19min.

Talk about all the delusional Faker fans who keep overrating that dude lol.

Nurk looked awfull 1 for 11 and got rejected by AD 4 times.

Can’t wait for this banner and the “ Lakers beat Kings starters without AD/Bron/Reaves” one

[–] mercfan3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

😭😭😭😭

Omg, I went to sleep at half time. Beautiful.

The NBA.com title for the game is “Durant outshines LeBron”. Bro scored 21 to Lebron’s 19 but went -5.

[–] DEEZLE13@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

AD alone probably would’ve beat that team

Lakers fans have gone quiet after 1 pre season game 🤫.

BolBol needs 20lbs if he wants to be a PF because he's not good enough to be a PointForward.

He doesn't set screens, he can't box out, he's not a great passer, he doesn't have great handles. And he buys every single pumpfake

I don't think we need to use the word "destroy" for a pre season game

[–] LastNightNBA@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Why are the post game thread titles so dramatic

[–] monkey-pox@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nice job winning the preseason championship!

“Lakers clearly the better team.”

Lakers fans

[–] NotClayMerritt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cam Reddish and Christian Wood are horrible players and yet they represent depth for this team who already struggles defensively. Not good team building.

[–] jobeeeeeeem@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol atrocious coz none of those 3 were PG. They waived SPJ, JHS and Vincent sat leaving only DLo, Reaves and Lebron who can really play point and it was just preseason and those 3 won’t play to finish a game that has no bearing. Can’t wait for the season to start!

[–] CloudMacGrath@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I'm just glad to watch basketball live again.

Can't wait for Tuesday. Everybody loves a grudge match

[–] Dirtylittlesecret88@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They played cam reddish at the point guard position
