Christian wood has been balling these past few games damn

[–] Drewbacca_Hrrrgrgrar@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Magic fans, convince me Paolo is in a slump and this isn't who he's become. It's painful to watch.

[–] RealLanceStorm@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I bet on the Lakers to win and even I was like "whoa" at some of those calls last half of the 4th lol

[–] Ifinishfast42@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

+- a bad stat tbh but the +10 from Suggs and -12 by Paolo matchup perfectly

[–] ps3ud0rand0m@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Garry Harris’ perfect game will be overlooked cause the Magic decided to drive straight into AD and chuck it up for the last play

[–] ruburdingus@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

waste of a gary harris masterclass smh

[–] swords_devil@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

some of you guys need to chill, I know you guys hate the Lakers

but don't attack other team after they lose and call them trash after praising them for whole night just because they lost a close game

[–] eelposse@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Got Lebron to go over his minutes restriction again, and Magic get the Lakers at home like next week. Playing the long game here.

But damn I stayed up to 1 EST to watch it come down to a straight drive into AD. Suggs did so much great then just went a little too HAM at the near end.

[–] thatonezorofan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Looks like Suggs REALLY fucking hates the Lakers lol. Bro was DOWN BAD for that win.

[–] KUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUZ@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Im a bit shocked about how lock down the magic defense is. and as i said before I LOVE how passionate suggs was on defense all game. He looks like a top 10 perimeter defender in the league the way he played. We were sluggish for the first 2.5 quarters but the magic absolutely put the screws on us defensively and if paulo shot somewhat normally it would have been a win for the magic.

No animosity against the Magic. Im hoping they pitch a defensive shutout tomorrow and make kawhi and george look small tomorrow.

I assume the final product will be much better than we’ve seen, but this first week or so of Lakers basketball has been not great.

[–] EveryShot@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah but last season we started off utter dog shit and made it to the WCF so at this rate we could win it all! “Please God of Basketball. I haven’t asked you for anything since the 2016 Finals 🙏”

[–] G1Spectrum@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

AD playing like a First-Team All-NBA player

[–] Cul_what@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Our two best players were AD and Cole Anthony

[–] mypeaksandmyfreaks@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

despite darvin hams best efforts, the lakers won

[–] mysteryman403@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Anyone else see Suggs crying after the game so badly? What was that about

[–] ech0es13@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

This Magic team should be 3-0.

Fight me.

[–] JayQuips@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lakers try to win a game in comfortable fashion challenge (impossible)

[–] StefCika@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lakers' defensive gameplan of leaving everybody open and hoping they miss paid off

[–] Mono789@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Good lord, AD is amazing.

[–] edwardhyeung@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

MAGIC FORGOT ABOUT GARY HARRIS SMH

[–] KaiserKaiba@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lakers nearly had their own version of the Clippers-Jazz game tonight. Ultimately, they’ve just looked really uninspired and lazy. And their coach’s decisions and rotations continue to confuse me.

As for ORL, good fight from them and Harris going off like that I did not expect

[–] MazKhan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lebron has been dreadful from quarters 1-3 so far this szn but he's been killing it in 4th quarters lol

[–] ChannelNeo@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Franz and Paolo were a combined 9-31 tonight.

I could care less what the Lakers or refs did or didn't do. You can't win games being that awful.

Not sure what bug has bitten Paolo, but he doesn't look as engaged or involved. Maybe having a back to back will straighten him out instead of give him too much time off.

[–] Kaameel@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Laker fan here, y'all's offensive was ugly tonight (besides Gary MJ Harris) but goddamn are you boys DAWGs on D. Fun game! Good luck for the next one .

[–] hugsandpugs@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I've been lowkey impressed by Christian Wood on defence I can't lie.

[–] CelinedionWaiters@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lakers games are great for non-Lakers fans. They've been putting on (albeit sometimes ugly) bangers so far this season.

[–] HeavenlyE@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

If only the Magic had someone shooting 100% for those final plays

[–] ItsAboutDatTime@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man even though it's a win, this Lakers team is just not fun to watch at all.

[–] EveryShot@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Why’s that?

[–] Vermillion_Crab@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Seems like Lakers only taking ugly wins this season.

Wood has been good so far. It's so frustrating seeing our guards just look up and wait for the ball to fall their way. At least Wood has been crashing the boards so AD isn't always alone fighting for the rebound. Him being a threat on the 3 also makes sure his man stays close to him and avoids closing in on a driving Laker. Hope he sustains this level of energy for the rest of the season.

On the other hand, I dunno what's happening to AR. Maybe it's fatigue or maybe his confidence is shot with all those bricks. He needs to find his groove back if we want easy wins.

[–] Cul_what@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Fultz and Suggs are dawgs fucking hell I was always off my seat when they got the ball

[–] necrolic_8848@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Need Franz and especially Paolo to figure it out.. easily have faith in both. Love the way the team is playing as a whole

[–] ChannelNeo@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

By the way, weird schedule quirk : We play the Lakers again this Saturday. We also have lost seven straight against them.

[–] Whitecrewneck@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Shout out DLO

[–] Kvsav57@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lakers not named Anthony Davis are allergic to rebounds.

[–] BigSteeze7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Still poverty, I hate this team. Paolo needs to get his head out of his ass if he wants to become the next superstar that leaves us for the Lakers.

[–] Yommination@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Suggs is a dawg

[–] WadeCountyClutch@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Man, this game was hella sloppy! Ham needs to never play reaves and Dlo together, again and needs to have a big whether it’s wood or Hayes next to AD!!
