Sweet revenge for Julius.

fabiani12333 · 04-30-2025, 11:55 PM

Edwards 0-11 from 3 tonight. He averaged 10.3 per game during the regular season -- up from 6.7 last season. For a guy so athletic, why is he chucking so many 3s?

Lakers were favored to win the series and they lost in 5 on your homecourt. That's an embarrassment

mnvikingstwins · 04-30-2025, 11:57 PM

LeBron? Luka? WHAT HAPPENED?

yiguiri2002 · 04-30-2025, 11:57 PM

Lakers in 5 indeed

I mean, it only means that the Wolves will sweep them. It's totally happening.

OKC is going to have smooth path until they meet Boston in the Finals.

That wasn't the conversation.

The conversation is that the Lakers weren't championship contenders. Folks wanted to leap right to OKC, not even pausing on the fact that the Lakers wouldn't be able to beat half the teams in the west playoffs because they are anchored by a 40 year old and a guy who got traded for being fat.

SGA played 76 of 82 games. He was also +7.6 in on/off.

By Bye Luka & Lebron you two have a long off season to cry up a storm.

boxbuster7 · 05-01-2025, 12:05 AM

The Timberwolves deserved to win the series

that said...I never understood the hype around this la team - they don't have a center

Ismael80 · 05-01-2025, 12:06 AM

Always a good day whenever the Lakers loose. And good for Gobert having this monster game. That man has unnecessarily been ridiculed/ hated and made fun of for no reason at all so it's especially nice he did it against the Lakers & Luka who said he just loves torturing him.

I don’t know about unbeatable monster, but a team with the best point differential in league history should probably garner a little more respect. Such is coastal bias.

houston and detroit are fighting uphill battles, uncommon disparity. Clips/Den planned for 7, and i think edwards/curry is the end game, BAM

Starman101 · 05-01-2025, 12:20 AM

That had to be the worst elimination game of all time

0 defense. No sense of urgency whatsoever. Lakers were not getting blown out early

Still don't understand wtf happened with the Lakers with all due respect to Minnesota

No. The Lakers definitely won that trade, and it's not even close. Unfortunately, the Lakers went from NOT being a title contender with AD to NOT being a title contender with Luka. At least for this season anyway. We'll see what happens in the future. Luka will have plenty of time to lead them to a chip. Hopefully, LePhony will be gone soon.

blackvodka · 05-01-2025, 12:32 AM

I'm hoping Gobert can keep this momentum up and carry it over into the next round.

They gave up a lot of picks for him and he has had some struggles, but he came through when the Wolves needed someone to step up tonight.

Only eight players for LA even played tonight. Your margin of error is really slim with no bench like that. The Lakers front office has work to do.

Glad to see the back of the Lakers.

Hopefully next season is LeBron's last. I doubt he retires when he knows the Lakers will stack a squad next season to try for his 5th title.

Minny played great and Randle was surprisingly a beast at times.

Ant has really impressed also with his playmaking coming a long way.

Minny vs GS/Hou next. Another solid series.

Playoffs have arrived now that the waste has been cut.

Agreed on all points. Crazy who Ant has already knocked out of the playoffs the past 2 playoffs and who he may still also knock out.
