Watched the Lakers play like ass and *wrestlemania spoiler* >!Paul Heyman betray his best friends!< smh
Naz Reid.
Sushi guy put up a better fight
… but we’ve got Jaden McDaniels
[When you’re in Cancun but you’re subtly checking how the fat boy did in his first playoff game as a Laker](https://i.redd.it/dvhklkrwqpve1.jpeg)
This game wasn’t remotely close.
go tell all the girls!!!!
Bring on all the hot takes!
They got LeBron, but we got Jaden Mcdaniels.
I was nervous even being up 27 lol, but a huge win we needed that.
AWOO BABY

Wolves depth is up there with the best in the league
Belt to ass successful hate watch. thanks minny.
Look at me. I’m the 3 seed now.
Jaden McDaniels is a certified playoff riser. What a game from him!
I was about to finish the game for solidarity until I saw Alex Len with that sorry ass alley oop attempt lol
First KD now LeBron. Ant is the NBAs Randy Orton
If the Wolves win this series, the Lakers should have to transfer them all chips won while in Minneapolis
The amount of open threes the lakers allowed is disgusting
Last year, I felt like Ant was way more expressive in the playoffs, emotions always on his sleeve.
This Ant is locked the fuck in. Neutral expression, strictly business.
On one hand, Minnesota is not gonna shoot 50% from 3 every game
On the other hand, those were some open ass shots
Series ain’t over but it’s crazy how many lakers fans online were acting like this was an easy matchup for LA. wolves are a great team
A win is a win but if I’m Minnesota I treat that like a loss. I think the lakers figured something out putting Bronny on Luka Garza. One of those small adjustments that can change a series
Lakers learned why the Nuggets wanted no part of the Wolves.
yall don’t even have any lakes
I just love that JJ intentionally fouled to set up a zone like he had the ultimate ace up his sleeve. Then the wolves scored an easy layup in 2.5 seconds.
Minnesota took their first timeout at 4:33 of the third quarter
Nuggets fan here, it brings me immense joy watching another team have to play the timberwolves in the playoffs instead of us
Luka on Edwards doesn’t seem like a smart assignment.
