    Yeah its just obvious tonight, they simply will not give Amen a call, you can't just be quiet about it and take it.

    These lineups are a joke.

    Tate shouldn’t be playing.

    Sengun playing like a clown.

    Sengun and Jabari are so weak down low. Loose balls and they can't grab the ball!

    like I said earlier, I don’t care if Durant gets a tank dell injury from playing and it’s his last game ever, he has to play.

    We must go back to tank mode so that the league gives Spurs and Mavs 1st pick

    Got to love how when Tate gets his tech Jefferson flat out admits if LeBron did it there wouldn't be a tech...

    This is like a blow it up kind of a game. Like there is no way this isn’t an indictment type of game where it dawns on you how pathetic a team you actually have.

    We can’t expect to win a playoff game with Tate and Holiday playing significant minutes. Neither are scoring threats in the least.

    Tell me this isn’t fake this is just the wwe… we’re playing bad, but the Lakers are playing worse since it’s taking everything that rest can do to keep them in the game and they’re given everything to them making up stuff. It’s ridiculous

    If Ime Udoka loses this Series he deserves to be fired. Even in Game 7 loss versus the Lakers Loss or OKC sweeping the Rockets. Ime Udoka deserves to be Fired. Absolutely clueless in drawing up plays. Ime in a timeout called asking a Assistant to hand him a clipboard like he is showing off. Can you draw up different plays instead of Sengun at the 3 point line Iso?
