Is there really any question who the main man is on this team?

Give me a break! You can’t call a timeout in the middle of a scramble for the ball. This is fixed!

My stream skipped and I missed it all. Why am I not surprised the Suns get screwed on a late call against the Lakers?

Clearly the NBA wants the Lakers in the final 4. Suns got the defensive stop the NBA said we don't care.

It’s pretty obvious who the NBA wants in the tournament.

This is a loss tonight. The league wants James and the Lakers in the "finals". Who are the refs?
Called it.

20 turnovers.

That's been a problem all year that's going to have to be addressed.

KD had a decent look…I hope Tim Washington is proud of himself for handing the Lakers the game

Not a fan of the fix is in narrative in this thread. I get the refs were bad but did anyone watch the 1st half?

Team still hasn't won a single game all year when they've fallen behind by 10 or more points.

When the going gets tough, this team fucking quits.

They need to add rules where that can be overturned. That’s an inexcusable way to end a ball game. Horrible call.

When you give up 21 offensive rebounds and have 20 turnovers, you're not going to win many games against a good team.

Dude, first half doesn’t matter when it’s tight at the end. You don’t get penalized. The score is what it is. You officiate it correctly and play it out. Why even play the 2nd half then?

I didn't see any quit in the second half.

Stupid mistakes, but not quit.
