[LogicMan]

Fantastic game.

agreed.

both teams played hard. LBJ had a big night but them Blazers have no quit

 

[bksballer89]

Lakers are the only team who made the Blazers defense look decent

The only thing giving me life right now is watching Twitter torch bumass Danny Green and KCP.

Both 8 seeds win game 1

WOW

Porzingis doesnt get hosed and........maybe.

Damn LBJ must have thought he was playing with the 07 Cavs out there tonight. Everybody sucked ass for LAL except him.

Lakers still without a playoff win since May 18, 2012.

AD was nasty tonight. He should be embarrassed. Dude need to come out and drop 40/20 in game 2

Yeah that was a horrible take lol

The positive for the Lakers is that they just need to shoot a little better.

Negative is this been the story since seeding games started about 3 weeks ago and it isn't getting better

The bubble hurts the Lakers in a big way imo, but i think the Lakers can turn this around with a must win in game two

Maybe give Quinn Cook some minutes. He's a legit 3-pt shooter. The other negative is that Dame can hit any shot anywhere. With Dame, CJ, and Carmelo, the Blazers simply have better shotmakers right now.

Probably correct on both

They need to step up the defense big time, and a lot of things besides just shooting

Sad reality:

Portland didn't play that great...and still won.

 

[Kold]

Gotta give the Blazers props here. We gotta shake back. KCP gotta go, and Ant HAS to play more at the 5

 

[Kold]

This will go unnoticed, but we had Dame on lock, the whole 2nd half...until he well, exploded

Portland was better prepared from top to bottom.. Vogel will be fired if the Lakers lose this series
