Lakers are really taking this game seriously, aren’t they?

Can we stop trying to fucking lay it up if we're not getting any calls? Go dunk on that asshole.
Nurkic doesn't know how to dunk. We were warned by Blazers fans.
I said a soft “dunk the ball” but I’m not as upset because I know he doesn’t have the athleticism.
Yeah, I don't know who was expecting Nurkic to be some kind of explosive finisher in the paint. I didn't need Blazers fans to tell me that.

Small thing but I like that Vogel is in the ear of the refs rather than just standing and watching the play unfold. That, and his time out calling so far, gives me hope that he’s a much better match day coach than we’ve been used to lately.

Some breakdowns on PnR coverage but I think our defense was actually solid
The 1st quarter for sure was just them getting buckets on live ball turnovers and then cheapies at the FT line

Bron n AD hitting 3s in the 2nd are shots I live with
As mentioned Reaves was doing work so credit to him

The rims, the court, and now the clock... Please never play a real game in this building.

I don't want to hear about the Lakers improved depth if they're playing Wood and Reddish 20mpg.

Honestly, our team is deeper than theirs.

Bench looking legit. We have depth, ladies and gentlemen! In Ishbia we trust.

The difference is the Suns playing 5 guys who know what they're doing out there together. That Lakers lineup looked like 5 guys who just met at LA Fitness.

Lol. Eubanks is going to be a starter if he continues like this.

This, talking heads keep saying it but I felt like they mostly upgraded their bit players more than they added depth.

Schroeder -> Vincent

Troy Brown-> Prince

Who ever was there back up center last year -> Wood
