lakers body language is so bad right now
PLEASE don't screw this up guys !!

[The Bobster]

There are no circumstances where it doesn't feel good to beat the Lakers.

[jonh]

Guys, this is the game to be watching! So nice to be beating the Lakers by double digits.

[In2ition]

This would be a good time to bring in Dragan.

[The Bobster]

If they're going to use Ayton to guard James they need to put Bender back in to mach up with McGee. Guarding him with those small forwards is killing them.

[bajanguy008]

come on guys
waayy too many breakdowns in the 4th

[JeremyG]

Go to Ayton every time!!! Need easy points!

As always he can’t even get any touches in crunch time. So stupid.

[The Bobster]

Some dubious lineup choices have let the Lakers back in the game here in the 4th.

[bajanguy008]

hahahahaaa

we got a fortunate call but Ayton hitting both and Bron missing his is awesome

I'd say some bad D, and some scared offense has contributed as well. The team really does struggle to close games out. Not used to playing 48 minutes of competitive ball.

[The Bobster]

Ayton - 26 pts, 10 reb, 8/11 FG, all while taking the assignment of guarding James most of the game.

[bajanguy008]

excuse my behaviour guys but
a big Fcuk off to all those laker fans who always at these games , enjoy your drive home

[jonh]

They pulled it out in the end!

[JeremyG]

Best win of the season! Let’s get past 16!

That's always been the case. But when the Suns are winning and there are fewer tickets available you don't see as many of them.

Ayton has had some really nice moments on both ends. Doesn’t have many rebounds but I still think this is one of his best games this season.

I think an engaged Ayton is a phenomenal player that you can build around...just like you could with an engaged Dwight Howard.

So the secret is to make Ayton cover the other team's best player--every game.

And to get him involved in the offense early.

I love how LeBron's calculated passive aggressiveness is a big part of their failures this season. Couldn't happen to a more deserving fan base.

[Gladiator]

Really pleasing to check in and see a win and more particularly a win driven by Ayton at both ends of the court. Nice
