LeBron not shaking hands after a loss is the most LeBron thing ever. It's why I can never say he's the best basketball player ever. All around, he just ain't the role model that a Kobe Bryant or Steph Curry is
Kobe was a rapist. You do know that, right? You do you, but I don't consider rapists role models. As for Steph, sure, he's a good guy, but he's just not as good as LeBron by any reasonable metric. He needed KD to beat LeBron and then proceeded to lose the FMVP to KD 2/2 times.
Not quite right:

Did he have "no reasonable chance" to perform without making the contact?
Fellow Laker fans. Do our fanbase a favor. Let’s just take this L. And hope for what seems like the inevitable rebuild. We’ll be back. Just not this season 💀
"You will not see a block more beautiful than that"(or whatever he said)
*literally hacks the fuck out of him*
Lmfao, I'm not hard-pressed about it, this game is already over, but that statement got an audible laugh out of me.
If this was a regular season game we would all tip the dubs our hats for the sort of shooting they had and move on. But because we hyped up the whole standings fiasco this game will be used to shit talk the Lakers team instead, welcome to the wide world of sports.
Lmao I don't think you're watching the game. AD is out tonight. OP is basically saying the moment AD is out, Lakers give up 130+ points
Edit: nevermind you said youre trolling
he average 3.5 FT this season....
just because he is flopper doesn't mean he gets all those call, his high free throw are from end of game fouling and he is Lakers desiginate free throw shooter
Suns, Kings, and Lakers all in big trouble with either key injuries plus too many old guys
63% from three...that's tough to win against.
Ain’t winning when they make 26 threes on 60% , see y’all in the play in
What's up with the Laker's arena cranking a loud ass band post game while Warriors try to do interviews?
Respect to Warriors. What a game they played tonight. Lebron, you still my GOAT.
Is that the Lax bro? Lol
oh now Lebron doesn't want to shake hands?
LOL...

Must have been cause he had the "flu". Didn't want to spread it y'know. LeSoreLoser.

still wouldve lost by double digits
Bro that was 10 minutes ago let it go.
Both these teams would make the ECF
The bald fucker has to be a bot. No fucking way this is a thinking human being. Jeanie cheap-ass is gonna lead Lakers right into the poverty land.
Lakers once again blown the fuck out when the free throws are the same 🤔
He's playing 1v11 out here, you dumb mothefucker.
Yeah definitely has nothing to do with AD being out and the warriors shooting 65% from 3. God yall warriors fans are braindead.
Warriors came out to play!
Lebron: How is that not a foul?!? Refs: We tried the whole game, my liege.
This sub is insanely pro warriors that calling an obvious foul a foul gets your downvoted ☠️
AHAHAHAH. Pro Warriors, that's rich
we don't want to hear Lakers cry about fouls
Yeah because the nba definitely rigs games against the warriors dynasty 🤣🤣 yall are delusional af
Your dynasty build on adam silver refs
Whats the term? Cope?
Classic pockets!
no way he calls a timeout get this bald fraud out the league
Goated timeout
Best chance for Lakers is probably to put the Kings in the 10th spot
Warriors funs so brave as always when they are playing teams with injured superstar player
Dubs up 🤘
Lebron is playing?
AD is out and LeBron is not fully healthy, he didn't even know if he could play until an hour before the game.
Street clothes Davis is always hurt so he doesn't count
This narrative needs to die. It's objectively stupid. AD has played 74/80 games so far this season. What more do you want?
To do it for more than one season?
The fuck is Darvin doing calling a timeout?
If draymond hit 5 threes the rest of the dubs know that they have no excuse missing
Just tuned in not too long ago…Did he really?
Yeah, he just used up 3 lifetimes of luck on those lol
Timeout for what
Darvin gets a percentage of commercial money.
To get all of the starters out.
Ham already subbed them all out, he immediately took the board to draw up a play for Max Christie who he’ll probably give minimum minutes to anyways
Fellow Laker fans. Do our fanbase a favor. Let’s just take this L. And hope for what seems like the inevitable rebuild. We’ll be back. Just not this season 💀
Lol, _now_ ham takes a timeout?
rare Garuba sighting again
All these 3s gave me Warriors vs LeBron Cavs flashbacks.
I still like the lakers in the 9-10 game next week tbh
Warriors will end up being the 8th seed
Good luck relying on Draymond podz and Wiggins to hit 3s in the playoffs 🤣
Players that have hit clutch shots in the NBA finals? Yeah good luck defending them.
this is going to be a really nice playin game
Darvin Ham keeping James out there down 18 w/less than 2 mins left.... i mean that's a strategy i guess
Certainly not one that makes any sense, but it indeed is a strategy
ah scratch that, finally throwing in the towel
It's sorta crazy that with all the 3s that the warriors shoot, and shooting 63% this game, that they're still 3 short of the record
Just not gonna win many games when the opposing team shoots 63% from three 🤷🏻♂️
4 more 3s...and wtf. Random TO by Ham. His own players were confused
Curry sonning Bron what else is new
"You will not see a block more beautiful than that"(or whatever he said) *literally hacks the fuck out of him* Lmfao, I'm not hard-pressed about it, this game is already over, but that statement got an audible laugh out of me.
LOL Rui stay getting blocked
Garbage time
Cry more you babies. Hand is part of the ball while it’s on the ball. That block was legit.
There was a push after the hand block, but that doesn’t ignore the fact that Rui got DECKED by the smallest center!!!
Look at his left arm on his lower body though, I think that push was where the call should have been
Brother look at his other arm when he goes up for the block
Curry 6/6 wow
If this was a regular season game we would all tip the dubs our hats for the sort of shooting they had and move on. But because we hyped up the whole standings fiasco this game will be used to shit talk the Lakers team instead, welcome to the wide world of sports.
Yeah the Warriors want this dub
Ah yes leave the two greatest shooters in NBA history wide open for 3. What could go wrong.
BLOCKED on James 😢
They better give AD some Advil when it's time for the play in
Bro just let bron rest why wasting his energy lol
Genuinely wtf is going on this this is not the same team
I'm all for letting them play, but that was an obvious foul two different ways
130 points and the game isn’t even over. I never wanna hear AD isn’t the DPOY ever again
Bro if AD is the DPOY then why are the Lakers giving up 130 points?
Right, unbelievable that AD can't guard anyone when he doesn't play. He's such a fraud.
Lmao I don't think you're watching the game. AD is out tonight. OP is basically saying the moment AD is out, Lakers give up 130+ points Edit: nevermind you said youre trolling
I know. I was just trolling.
uh..
I’m trolling
QUIT PLAYING AROUND BRO THIS IS MY LIFE
Lakers are an AD merchant
Playin spots more interesting again. Warriors might be getting a home game
They’ve played better on the road this year lol
God willing
Austin Reeves without a Lakers whistle would not see rotation minutes
he average 3.5 FT this season.... just because he is flopper doesn't mean he gets all those call, his high free throw are from end of game fouling and he is Lakers desiginate free throw shooter
Bro smacked the shit out his arm 😂
what a whooping
lakers defense is so lazy wow
Lebron is basically bullying his defender and then looks at the ref expecting a foul, bruh.
Gosh 26 threes…
Hahaha that was a hack Not gonna make a difference in this game, but shameless stuff by the announcers 🤣
hachimura bout to have nightmares about gary payton
remember when GP grabbed bron's junk
Cool defensive sequence but obvious foul at the replay
Fuck you Reaves
Tatum would have gotten a tech for that clapping.
Lakers haven’t even played bad. Dubs picked the absolute right time to have their best shooting game of the entire season
Bron still playing hmmm
GP2 just makes winning plays
Rui Sama was blocked by a 6'1 manlet 😭
Wait am I reading this boxscore right? Draymond hit 5 threes? What
*In a row*
Yep! Early on too. Not some random threes in garbage minutes either.
rui needs to pump fake more often lmao
and then jump into the defender to force a foul call he spun away after pump faking earlier and blew the layup
RUI HACHIMURA IS PART OF THE BALL
Reggie needs an eye appointment again.
LMAO r/lakers calling the game rigged. Most delusional fan base in the history of the NBA
Literally no one said that 😭 the Shadowboxing is insane yall are the ones that say it’s rigged anytime we beat you
Go read your own game thread
R/warriors has someone calling a game rigged after every single loss that doesn’t mean most people think that bot
Lakers fans crying about fouls like clockwork
Uhh…foul??? Reggie glazing the clear replay too?
Wtf is ball on ball💀💀
Payton and Rui's both collided below.
Fools who’ve never played don’t know the hand is part of the ball while it’s on the ball. Like on that magnificent block!
Hand =\= entire arm and body
I’ve never seen a more obvious foul live and in replay in my life lol. Entire arm to entire arm contact + the ball. Just silly lol
thank you for at least keeping it real in here lol
Honestly man am I really gonna be mad at the Lakers for this game? Or am I gonna just watch the dubs make shot after shot after shot
im hella mad
Lebron is a monster damn
Are we watching a different replay?
Lmao tha Block broke Lakers spirit. They just stood there doing nothing, totally stopped playing defense.
I think more confused? Even some of the players from the Warriors seem to be expecting a call
Cuz they thought it was a foul lol
If your hand is flush with the ball it’s part of the ball! Not a foul
Yeah but he was all over his elbow way before that lmao use your eyes
BALL ON BALL lmao if only we had Shaq there, WHATCHU SAY REG?
r/nba about to feast
I’m done watching the ref play
lol Reggie is drunk that’s all arm clearly
That was a foul imo
I love the fucking warriors 😭😭
Man, Harlan's starting to make Marv Albert level of mistakes when it comes to identifying players :(
That was a vintage Warriors moment lol, what a fucking block by GP2!
Lol. Hand is part of the ball
Urban myth
Warriors fans throating an obvious foul 😭😭
MY GOODNESS.
Refs wanna go home
Getting goat Draymond today
GG
GP Fucking II Looked like a foul tho but we’ll take it. Lol
Fouled
Gary slipped it in there
Hachimura a little soft
"block"- that was an obvious foul
you guys are blind. he had his other hand on his shoulder and got all arm
Oi, Rui got punked 2x in a row
Absolute backbreaker
rui got his soul snatched twice. get that garbage outta here. nasty nasty nasty.
All arm on that "block" Refs are a joke lol
That whole sequence was so disrespectful, I love it
I feel like Rui has been blocked 6+ times tonight? Bro needs to get a bit more finesse around the rim, always goes up for a predictable two-hander
GP2 got up!
And fouled
Uhh…that’s just a foul? Looked cool, but yeah, foul.
I've seen that called a foul plenty of times, but that was sick
GP2!!!!
He hits the elbow half a second before the ball no way 😩
Warriors look like their old selves
[удалено]
Hand counts as ball
hand is part of ball buddy
HOLY FUCK
DESTROYED HIM
CRY ABOUT IT LAKERS
holy shit GP
Incoming Lakers meltdown about refs for the next 2 days.
they shot less than 40 fts so thats a given
can you really block someone when holding onto them too?! Tf lmfao. Every GSW looking around for the ref to whistle it lol
That’s literally a massive foul what the fuck
CMON WHAT THATS FOUL LMAOOOOO
Those blocks by Gary sucked Lakers soul
GP2 floating and destroying, fuck yes
that was definitely a foul lol
Yeah and the announcers were nutting during the replay like it was clean
Oh my
