I think that’s a silly question. Every coach in the history of basketball has found someone to bring off the bench before today. Do the Lakers have the worst bench in playoff history?
if they did they would be playing them right? again both are averaging more than 40 mins per game! They are going to wear down eventually; Minny is big and physical and thats just too many minutes for LBJ at 40; hes still playing at a high level but its too much! I look on the Lakers bench and i dont see anyone who can play and give them quality mins without hurting the team...
 
0 points in the 4th ????
:eek2:

You see how I posted all during the game and afterwards today and didn't use any I'm at the beach or I'm on a date excuses and showed love to the people criticizing the Lakers for smoking this? You gotta be built different to deal with scrutiny in real time. You also have to really be invested in "your" team. Not everyone is. :ssshhh:
 
the refs didnt replay the foul; Minny challenge the out of bounds call! the call was reverse because the ball went out of bounds because of a foul! therefore the ruling was a foul; they can challenge fouls though; but Minny in this case didnt challenge a foul because there was none called...

That's our point. They didn't review the foul, because they can't. Just like you can't review Timmy Jr's foul against him.

:roflmao:

Don't deflect. I don't have to hide behind my woman. The difference between me and you, you want people on this message boards approval. And your feelings get hurt when they talk bad about the Heat as they're losing. And deep down you know Riles has done a horrible job. So you just don't post. :lol:

Heat play tomorrow, last game of the season. Nobody expects you to be here posting under this login.

I'll be here don't worry
I don't feel any kind of way because there's no expectations for this season

I’m talking about minutes period not “quality minutes.”

I’ve seen Kerr strategically sit Curry to miss two minutes of game time and get six actual minutes of rest. You don’t just keep your best players in all game fatigued. JJ fucked up.

:lol: @ “I don’t use any I’m on a date excuses.”

I got home at 10am and watched the Warriors highlights. Can’t stay home every Friday and Saturday night watching the NBA. I was glad to see Steph & Draymond pulled it out but I was more concerned with another type of pulling out all night.
 
Not only was the bad inbound pass bad, Austin was wide open a second before that but Bron didn’t want to pass it to him. :rolleyes2:
Rui was open on the left side corner right beside him a couple plays before that and was hot but he threw it cross court to DFS, Lebron was tired out there
 
That's our point. They didn't review the foul, because they can't. Just like you can't review Timmy Jr's foul against him.
if there is a foul called they can review it; but if there isnt one called then you are right they cant; however the review rule clearly states: if a challenge is called they can look at other aspects of the review, like fouls, to get the call right...
 
I only watched the last few minutes but not making one substitution for an entire half sounds like bad coaching to me. No way that optimizes what you get out of your players. Those 5 players would likely be better down the stretch with some strategic rest.

reddick playing luka and lbj damn near the whole game then peeps expecting one who's supposedly out of shape and the other who's 40 to save them in the last minutes of the 4th is asking a lot lol
Jackson Hayes started the game but got benched after 4 minutes because he was letting Rudy Gobert throw him around after the first quarter JJ Reddick just stuck with the same guys knowing that was a bad idea

I look on the Lakers bench and i dont see anyone who can play and give them quality mins without hurting the team...
:puzzled: :puzzled:
 
Orlando crowd is dead. It's three minutes left in the game... the fuck is wrong with them?
They know the inevitable....
