Idk what’s going on with Klay but to me I feel like that’s a mental/confidence thing by the way he was missing. He’s too good of a shooter to miss open shots that badly.
It was sorta like the Twilight Zone in seeing a team with the shooters and history that this core squad has just chunking up shots hoping they fall.
I still thought it was a poorly officiated game. There was more contact on no calls on both sides than there were on half those fouls in favor of LA. I think it was the 3Q but GS was already in the penalty with over 5 minutes left in the period - that’s insane

They were in the penalty pretty early in the first quarter too I believe. I can recall one play where the Lakers player was driving on Klay, Klay was literally just moving with him with his arms straight up, and when he took the shot attempt was off-balance which I guess was enough to assume Klay bumped him. Another was Russell falling over for some reason trying to make a pass, Draymond just standing there doing nothing wrong, and was called for a push. I'm surprised Draymond didn't get himself a technical for his foul trouble aside from the one he did get with the ball-in-Shroder's-face moment.

Was there any word on what Schroeder said that got him ejected? I could see him mouthing but I couldn’t make anything out of it
I know Marc Jackson was pretty aggravated with the ejection
I’m wondering if he had been chirping and the official(s) told him to knock it off and whatever he said to Draymond must’ve been the final straw

Don't know what he said or anything but I just thought ill throw this out there because your bought him up and I get so much push back on this irl with a lot of Laker fans. Schroeder(or however you spell it) might be one of the most underrated guys in the entire league.

I’m a hawks fan I’ve loved him since he came into the league - he was my favorite hawk at the time and continues to be one of my favorites jn the league. I think bron likes him too |

At least at first, then you could see he was saying something, so I’ve got to imagine the ref heard something foul to decide to give a T. Probably shouldn’t have given either a T since nothing escalated from it. |

Didn't expect LA to win the series. Denver is on another level though, wouldn't surprise me if they sweep.
I think whoever gets Miami will go 7.

That was the theme from an officiating standpoint Side note, funniest thing I read today was someone suggesting GSW trade Curry to LAC for draft picks |

Denver has look unbeatable most of the playoffs but I just don't know if I would bet against Boston now. Tatum looks like he's in another league when he gets going

Genuinely curious how long the “process” takes in Philly.

Makes you wonder how many other players are like Ja, just not having it seen on IG Live.

I mean how f*cking hard is it not to have yourself in a video with the gun? Dumb enough to keep having it but he just keeps showing it off.
Lakers honestly stayed in that game more then I thought they would
Spurs just hit gold for the third time

Not a huge Lakers fan but Reaves is from my hometown and seeing his success is pretty awesome. He was a standout in high school and I saw him play a few times so him getting a championship would be a huge deal here

Jokic is incredible. An incredible facilitator.
And how bout Miami? Jimmy Butler seems to get better with time

The problem with Miami for me is,theyre just not consistent enough. I don't think many would be shocked at all if they dropped 4 in a row to Boston after that big win. This is the same team that couldn't catch a beat up Nets team at the end of the season or couldnt even get past Atlanta to get the 7th seed and barely snuck into the playoffs but all the sudden knocks off the number 1 team overall and has looked great ever since,they gotta be one of the most streaky teams I've ever seen in any sport. I haven't watched a lot of them since the Bucks series,is Hero even back or gonna come back this year? Add him to this...wow.

Tonight was one of Denver's somewhat off nights,I think this one gonna be real costly for LA just like game two was for Phoenix. I told my friends I didn't think LA had a chance to get by game 6 when the series started and after these two games I'm still not seeing them get more then the one or two at most.

All I know is I checked the score last night as I was getting into bed and it was tied at 81
Checked again before I put my phone up and Denver was up 96-84. Definitely not shocked at Denver being up 2-0
If LAL win their two at home then we’ve got a series. But if it’s 3-1 coming back to Denver it’s OV
