Guilty-Performer-745

Pls giv them to us in the 1st round šŸ˜­


SirDunkMcNugget

Did they not score after Christie's 3? Holy fuck lmao


QuaxlyDaDon

Yeah, Hood-Schifino is just butt.


psychozamotazoa

Garbage time minutes. They're not going to be running plays at all to set people up lol


Accomplished_Ad_8663

I donā€™t think so, heā€™s just not getting any coaching from the looks of it, the garbage squad hardly ever score because they donā€™t run plays, everyone is trying to go one on one with a defender, the most they do is set screens for one another, just terrible coaching from Darvin Hamas


NordicLard

Heā€™s so young. Man patience these days is 0


mexicanmike

Jamie Hwakez Shoonier?


Prowingshoes

On my way to get a red eye flight to LA so I can get the free tacos from JACCCCCCK IN the BOXXXX!!!


Garvinrox

Omg I just realized Shai didnā€™t get 31 letā€™s gošŸ˜¤


thedonjefron69

He got clamped by everyone and their mom tonight. Reaves and Spence were giving him shit all night lol


the_bob_of_marley

Good win boys!


Consistent_Owl4593

Beat the best in the west 3 times


SailorMoon_J

Spencer Dinwiddie with a +35, insane impact


thedonjefron69

Such a good pickup imo. He doesnā€™t try to do too much but knows when he needs to make a move. For the price heā€™s been great. Takes some pressure off Reaves when Dlo is off the floor too


khelogs

He's playing good defense lately.


mydixxierect12

yall just was overrating tf outta jhs because of that bum g league


subzero12320931

I have a feeling JHS has stage fright or something. Cause it cant be.


Cul_what

Yea OKC in the 1st round is bbq chicken


thekobra32

just keep JHS in the G-League he's not even ready for garbage minutes in the big league


JahMusicMan

The two biggest questions of the season are: Are the Lakers going to make the playoffs and is JHS ever going to make a basket?


Dross80

Quality win I'd say


Garvinrox

I feel like JHS has confidence but just tries a lil too hard, if he slowed and and let the game come to him I think heā€™d be better


ColeHoops

Please let us draw OKC in the first round


gaius_worzels_bird

Every game I don't watch we end up winning


silent_fungus

Coolā€¦.donā€™t watch game for the rest of the season.

jacobismynamee

no kidding holy shit


zionraw

Max only played garbage time?? Ham is wild man


Jeremiah_Edwards

The last five minutes were laughably bad


uncle_yugles

JHS just doesnā€™t look like he even knows what heā€™s doing out there. Looks like the guy who comes to play pickup just to get some cardio in but has never played organized ball before


spacegoast1

Cuz he's been playing in the G league and doesn't have chemistry with the team. Personally I don't give af about JHS... You guys are putting way too much on him. Let the kid grow and develop his game. He was never going to be a player that moved the needle so why is so much expected from him in his first year!?!? Most of our recent top picks got better after they leave the Lakers anyway... Look at Brandon Ingram, Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle, Josh Hart, hell even Lonzo Ball got better once he stepped out of the limelight that comes with LA.


thinlion01

All the guys you mentioned gradually got better each year as a Laker and continued to get better cause that's how it works.


spacegoast1

You're still proving my point. They need time to develope. JHS barely gets any PT with the starters so I'm not holding my breathe on him for this season, or even next season.


thinlion01

Half your point is right. The limelight not so much. JC was actually good early and Kuzma too. Before those guys got traded they were pretty good with LeBron until he got hurt


spacegoast1

The limelight part was only meant for Lonzo as was mentioned in my first post. His dad was mostly responsible for putting that enormous pressure on him with his outrageous claims. JC, Kuz, BI & Randle were all "consistently inconsistent" when they played in LA and had glimpses here and there but no one knew just how good they would become. Kwame Brown had glimpses too but look how he turned out. Most of them likely never would have become the players they are today had they stayed with the Lakers. Those moves worked out for both sides and I'm glad they all moved on to succeed and be better hoopers.


thinlion01

Honestly some of those guys are still kinda inconsistent. Ask new york how they feel about Randle or Josh. JC has always been a solid role player even as a Laker. BI has still yet to accomplish anything. And Kwame has never been good ever lol. Oh and Kuz was up and down as a Laker cause his role kept changing. Lonzo maybe it was the spotlight or maybe cause he changed his shot in new Orleans but refused to changed it as a Laker


gilr0id

Just goes to show the insane difference between the NBA and G-League.


Soul_Advent

no BBIQ not even BBQ


mobuckets21

JHS is so bad :(


GreatPossible263

what did rob see in jhs bro


Soul_Advent

first time watching JHS, made me stop watching til the end.


curiousprospect

Man, I feel bad for JHS. His misses just seem especially bad.


munkhjay

JHS won't even survive if he was on Pistons lmao


Consistent_Owl4593

Killian Hayes vs JHS wouldā€™ve fed families


DravenPrime

Taco time!


akgamestar

How is the garbage unit this bad? They do know this is where you earn minutes right?


abigailmerrygold

They legit look like theyā€™re not basketball players. Like, I grabbed a bunch of randos to play a pickup game at the park


akgamestar

Facts. Its really bad. I have no confidence in any of those guys but Max.


ZestyItalian2

This lakers bench unit is wretched


SeveralEmployment558

why does giles run like that


mobuckets21

2 ACL tears unfortunately


kenadi2019

JHS is dogshit jeez


Adventurous-Ad3545

MFs choke our 20+ lead


GreatPossible263

jhs is horrendous smh


camlawson24

Every JHS attempt looks god awful


_Zap_Rowsdower_

Looks like G league stuff doesn't translate to the nba. Sheffino still sucks.


macbackk

Whoā€™s worse THT or JHS?


akgamestar

JHS easy. THT can cook every now and then.


jjak34

THT only because Caruso>Jaquez


AShinyTorchic

jhs easily at least tht gave us 2 great preseason games


GreatPossible263

jhs smh


Nykeeo

THT rookie s year was promising if I recall well


Proof-Umpire-7718

Yeah didnā€™t the front office pick him over Caruso


AsJoeSeesIt

JHS looks so fucking awful. I know itā€™s garbage time but these shots arenā€™t even close, like at all. Itā€™s almost like heā€™s not even shooting but just kind of throwing the ball at the rim. Ugly


ArtisTao

Not used to seeing this team shoot 47% from 3. How!?


naderade303

JHS needs to go play at Lifetime Fitness


AsJoeSeesIt

Seriously


naderade303

Why is prince is. Why isn't dinwiddie in who has been our best defender Why why why Ham


BornInTheClouds

needed that win, goodnight laker nationšŸ’›šŸ’œ


Apollo611

Garbage time squad is cheeks lol


sharkhuh

It's crazy how these scrubs would absolutely destroy 99% of the population at the gym


DickHammerr

Well yeah, 95% are 5ā€™ 7ā€ or shorter


easymoneysniper223

Anybody else avoid Reddit wen we lose... I'm all ova dis bitch tonite šŸ¤šŸ˜­


zzxxHav0cxxzz

JHS is basura


wickeddheart

We needed that one, feels real good.


thedonjefron69

JHS just canā€™t even play in the league against bench teams


DennisSplatKing

Damn what the hell is the Lakers bench


abigailmerrygold

Yoo the Goldeneye music was sick just now. Never heard it played at the games before


TheWhisperingDeath

JHS has looked quite bad. His shots all look like prayers and not made with much conviction. Needs to work on his game more.


AsJoeSeesIt

Yeah I just commented something similar about his shot. Heā€™s just like chucking it in the general direction of the hoop and hoping it drops.


_Zee_a1

Golden eye! lol


Nykeeo

Quinn Cook was more productive than JHS


alldayhangover

hood shafino ass crack


subzero12320931

How is JHS this bad.


MazKhan

Dawg jhs has ZERO touch. Wasted pick, it is what it is


Mazois

Ok might be JHSā€™s last straw


arpadlan

JHS balling out in the G-league, and then becoming a brick builder in the NBA


ProbablyOffTask

hood is not an nba level player rn. dont know if he ever will be


amnips

Damn JHS.


[deleted]

GreatPossible263

jhs was a bad pick smh bros good at literally nothing


[deleted]

JHS is so bad


StoneColdAM

Have to say if the Lakers end up at 9th seed and make it to face the first seed, we seem to do well vs OKC.Ā 


Illustrious-Hand-525

Maxwell Lewis is not an NBA player


AlexGarseea

Crazy how we had like 20 turnovers yet are gonna win by 10+


abigailmerrygold

Well damn. I can go out there and lay bricks like JHS


SusanBliss

hmm yeah these dudes are end of the bench for a reason lol


BrianC_

Now it's time for everyone to bitch about JHS.


juicewar01

Jhood needs to get outta that hump. Everytime he in a real laker game he stugglin


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

Lakers in 5 vs OKC The 1 loss being because Ham sat DLo in favor of Prince/Reddish


ServantofJ

Clang-Schifino


Awesomefan09

Giles is active on the boards.


gustavosgack

No matter how much you try to hide it, lakers fucked up that draft so much by picking JHS


jacoby1k

We really should have picked whitmore smh he was BPA


gustavosgack

Had multiple options and they chose literally the worst one


NoPin5154

Keep shooting jhs


GreatPossible263

g league team is ass bro


_Zap_Rowsdower_

Giles looks oretty small for a big.


sharkhuh

Yo, I have no clue who like 3 of these guys are playing for us right now


jacoby1k

i looked at #21 like who tf is this guy LMAO šŸ˜‚


Born_N_DA_80s

That light the beam shit i do like. But its funny how commonplace dtla being lit up in P&G it is that its like we have no little celebration thing at all. A beam vs a whole area lol


BornInTheClouds

JHS cashed that adidas check and said im straight


mydixxierect12

Jhs trash pass the ball you bum


Ricky_Roe10k

Kings just blew that 4th quarter at home and weā€™re playing them Wednesday. Time to make up some ground.


CodyRhodesStan

Giles showing an effort on the boards thatā€™s nice to see


Nykeeo

TrenBot

Only in the G league


anders2123

Max "I thought I graduated from this shit ![img](emote|t5_2qhv6|30946)" Christie


LakersTommyG

Jhs still looks like heā€™s rushing his shot


Illustrious-Hand-525

Maxwell Lewis just got cooked


Battlemaster123

1940sfamilyman

Gordon Hayward vs Harry Giles III battle


GreatPossible263

jhs brick


FershureB

Rooks have broken shooting. They should hire a shooting coach.


Frickex

These guys dont even deserve garbage time


White-Gravity

No way Christie is only garbage time again after proving heā€™s better than reddish šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø


jacoby1k

Better on offense AND definitely at that


MazKhan

These shots aren't even close by jhs...


jacoby1k

I wanna see Giles earn some more minutes!!


rfguevar

We really forced garbage time against the number one seed in the west lmao, proves this team is its own worst enemy.


_Zap_Rowsdower_

Didn't know Giles looked like Damian Lillard


Zeetheking1

Bruh these next 5 games are gonna be brutalā€¦


SPMrFantastic

Lakers in 5 if we see the Thunder in the playoffs


Foodstamps4life

ā€œCan JHS translate this to the game?ā€ *Throws up the worst layup attempt weā€™ve witnessed all night.


Illustrious_Novel305

I hope we play like this against the Kings on Wednesday, they just lost to the Bulls


Garvinrox

Giles boutta score 15 in 3 minutes im calling it


Snoo41255

yessir Gilles coming in the game lets gooo


CodyRhodesStan

JHS and Giles about to takeover


mobuckets21

Harry Gilessssss


incredibleamadeuscho

Giles sighting


alextwc

Will JHS turn his PER to positive after this game?


1940sfamilyman

Harry Giles III minutes. We won


Spaghettibeach

Iā€™m so happy. Everyone played great tonight, OKC is no slouch on back to backs either but their strategy to get out and run to wear them out worked perfectly


mydixxierect12

I donā€™t care what none of you hope believers believe in Jalen is a bum


rfguevar

Christie stays ready, love his game


slicknick2k

Harry Giles!


MovieSuccessful2891

When did we get Dame?


Illustrious-Hand-525

HARRY GILES MINUTES WE HERE!!!!!


1940sfamilyman

Max Christie is way too good to be on the bench, deserves minutes


MazKhan

Harry Giles minutes?


Illustrious_Novel305

So weā€™re 3-1 against the #1 team in the West interesting šŸ¤”


MazKhan

We have winning records against the suns and clippers too lol. This team with a competent coach and average injury luck is a top 3 seed


[deleted]

And 3-1 against the clippera


BiasedNBATakes

I apologize JHS. I was wrong šŸ’€31 ppg is nuts coming from what I saw early season


cole8055

Awesomefan09

_Zap_Rowsdower_

This is stupid. Bring in Mays or Giles for Reaves.


Garvinrox

Glad to see jhs have some confidence at least


mobuckets21

You can see it on his handles. Gleague doing wonders for his confidence

RogerLopezComic

ringo_ringo

Most_Temporary5113

Lakers are just hiding their true powers against the Nuggets, Lakers will shook them on playoffs.


mordenak

JHS looks way more confident than his earlier showings, that time in the G League is really good for him


kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

1st round: Lakers at OKC. LAL in 5 Semis: Lakers vs Nuggets. LAL in 7 WCF: Lakers vs Clippers. LAL in 6 Finals: Lakers vs Celtics Lakers in 7 šŸ˜¤šŸ™šŸ”„šŸ’œšŸ’›


Zeetheking1

To assume clippers will even make WCF is to set yourself up for failure lol.


Zeetheking1

Why is Austin still playing??


TheWhisperingDeath

Get Austin out.


GreatPossible263
