Poor LeBron James that’s two games in a row his teammates have all but disappeared on him. Chris Paul took a bit of a hit tonight that might hurt the suns going forward. If the Lakers can’t get some help around LeBron James though it won’t matter. Hopefully Anthony Davis comes back soon it was really obvious that he was missed tonight.
He is not the old Lebron anymore that could shoulder the whole team. It sucks to be in that position right now and he badly needs Davis' youth to be the aggressive type while he can dump all the assists to him. Chris Paul though is looking great. First was a hesitation shooting at three and he didn't force it but somehow he cannot stop himself and did it and it hits. That's a good sign that his shoulders are already healing. Same with Bron and AD, Booker is also effective when CP3 is around. The Lakers need to figure out a way to win Game 6 even as AD is questionable to play.

I guess even if Lebron could have scored 40-50 points, then they had lost anyway because his teammates had a disgusting performance. Look at their stats, they made 16 turnovers while the Suns made only 4, and the Lakers field goal percentage was only 34%.

The Lakers 2020/2021 team reminds me the 2011/2012 team, was a disappointment and they had a lot of allstars on the team and they were ready to beat the Heat in that season, (Wade, Bosh and LJ) Looks like the injury thing is a big problem with this match-up. When CP3 sits because of injury, they lose. When AD or LBJ sits because of injury, they lose. When AD is on the floor (in their last 2 wins), he scored 34 pts each but in their 2 losses he scored only 13 and 6 points respectively.
The series is tied and the Lakers have 2 options if AD will not play on Game 5. If they want to win its either LBJ step up on his performance or other players must step up to fill the gap that AD left. Take note that the Suns have this Big 3 of themselves (Booker, Ayton and CP3). A Point God, A scorer and a legit rebounder. It will be hard for the Lakers to defeat this young Suns team if they lose either one of their superstars.
Yes, that's exactly it. I think injuries in this NBA season are pretty high, a few years ago we didn't see a lot of players getting injured. Both, CP3 and AD make a huge difference in their respective teams. I'm really surprised with the Suns, I never imagined they can turn the game. LeBron James is not able to carry the Lakers on his back alone...I don't know, but if AD doesn't come back and LeBron James doesn't play a lot and stand out, I think the Lakers can lose this series

The Lakers 2020/2021 team reminds me the 2011/2012 team, was a disappointment and they had a lot of allstars on the team and they were ready to beat the Heat in that season, (Wade, Bosh and LJ) This 2011-2012 Lakers team is more disappointing compare to the current roster of Lakers now. Just by seeing that picture, you will know if they are a championship contender or not. All of them won championships already. For me the 2011-2012 are more disappointing. Well, the current roster of Lakers aren't that disappointed for me. Its just that, their superstars are always being injured and their supporting players can't step up if they aren't playing because of their injuries. Looks like the injury thing is a big problem with this match-up. When CP3 sits because of injury, they lose. When AD or LBJ sits because of injury, they lose. When AD is on the floor (in their last 2 wins), he scored 34 pts each but in their 2 losses he scored only 13 and 6 points respectively.

With 36 years old, LBJ can't carry the whole team like what he did on Cleveland. The Lakers are exposed on this game. The team can't win without AD and LBJ can't carry the team because other players can't step up. No one can fulfill what AD can bring into the court. Now the Suns are one game away from giving LBJ his first 1st round exit in the playoffs in his whole career. AD playing in Game 6 is still questionable for me and if he will play he isn't 100% healthy either. The chances of Lakers winning on this series are very low already unless one of the players step up and help Lebron at least to score.

wow, seriously that this AD injury was so serious? I thought he might come back in game 5. Without AD, LeBron James will have to play very well as CP3, Booker and Ayton are good players and have good potential. These are the times that separate the men from boys, and the player's experience is essential, LJ and CP3 have this quality. I even believe it could be embarrassing for LeBron to lose in his first round of the playoffs in his life, with a good team like Lakers. I even think the Lakers can win this series without AD, but for that, LeBron James has to play really well and other players such as Schröder, Drummond, Gasol and others need to help LJ. After the Cavs come-back against the Warriors in 2016 NBA finals, I have no doubt anything about basketball, because anything can happen

Lillard was so hot, he was fighting all night and bring the game into double OT, unfortunately, the team came out short as they have no defense on Jokic. It's a very bad move by Nurkic, he should stay patient as he is the only one who can stop Jokic in the paint.

Nets ended Celtics 123-109 and finished the series off, 4-1. Harden-KD-Irving trio was great again. J. Harden made a triple-double (34 PTS, 10 REB, 10 AST). Now they are the opponent of Bucks. It's going to be a great series that's for sure.
But the most competitive game of the night was Nuggets - Trail Blazers. Nuggets managed to be the winner after overtime (147-140). Lillard had an insane performance (55 PTS, 6 REB, 10 AST) but still they couldn't win.

I think The clippers will win 4 straight and will end the series with 4-2 score.
What do you think about this possibility? In game 5 of the series, Clippers are -7 at home, so I guess Luka's magic is already over or the Clippers have already seen it.
Also, Jazz are looking to end the series tomorrow, so goodbye Memphis.

Possible, for Clippers to win this series, lest we forgot they are the favorites in the beginning, it's that the Mavericks won surprisingly in the first 2 games and take home court advantage. But Clippers storm back and take the next 2 games so momentum shift for them. Luka is injured if I'm not mistaken, that's why the line open up at -7 at sport bookies and most likely Clippers can cover or will win the 5 game. Same with Jazz, they have sold Memphis defense and Ja Morant is check already.

Very possible that Clippers already noticed what's the Mavs weaknesses, without those 3 point shots They are not doing well, plus Leonard and PG's keeps on attacking the basket they'll share the ball and really feeling that there's no tomorrow for them. Also, Jazz are looking to end the series tomorrow, so goodbye Memphis.
If Memphis will not find the way in stopping or limiting Mitchell for sure this will be the end of this series, Knowing how great Jazz playing at home with Mitchell anchoring the offense, really giving tough job to whoever player that will guard him..

Memphis could stop Mitchell but can they stop Conley, he was really the one who made it easy for the Jazz as he is very talented in managing the floor. Not only that, his offense as well is very efficient, he can shoot 3s if he wants to score. Clarson as well have find his rthym. Knowing how great Jazz playing at home with Mitchell anchoring the offense, really giving tough job to whoever player that will guard him..
Jazz will win this, they beat the Memphis on the road, it should be easy for them to win at home.

It's questionble and not completely out there's a chance that Lakers will let him play if his condition is much better. Lebron still have role players who can help him if indeed he carry this game, Kuzma needs to help in producing points while Drummond needs to defend and gather more rebounds. They need to play defense and protect the rim, without AD, Gasol needs to step up and help. Well, the result suggests the other way around. LeBron with absolutely no help at all from his teammates. Schröder and KCP didn't even have a single score. All of them are shooting bricks with absolutely no defense at all. Harrell didn't have enough minutes. All in all the Lakers as whole seems lost in the last 2 games. However, the series isn't over yet. Let's see what would be the Lakers plan to win the series. It's just so surprising to see the 2 conferences champions exiting in the first round lol.

This is the NBA playoffs game for you and we will see more of this kind of action in the second round where the Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks will face each other. this is the best match so far since they both beat their last opponent with no mercy especially the Bucks where they beat the defending eastern conference champion. Game 1 will start on June 5 you better watch this first one so you will have an idea how intense the next games would be.

We also have to add that Clippers two best players Kawhi and Paul George are shooting very high percentage even at road and they started to blend and adjust. They can allow Luka to score if they want, and cut the support, just like what they did in the 2 games that they are in the road.
Luka needs help from guys like KP, he can't go it alone scoring 40 or 50 points per night. And now that he is not 100% and on the road games, it makes it difficult for them to salvage their series against Clippers.

KP is the problem here, he is not consistent and they are allowing the Clippers to score in the paint area. Both Leonard and George are so athletic, they have the height so they can go inside and score. With the way the Clippers are playing, there's a big chance that they will win the Western Conference finals now that the Lakers are struggling. If the Clippers will win in game 5, this series will be good as over already.

I agree with you, Nets have the offense, but Bucks have the best defense so far. Giannis and Lopez could dominate the paint, I'm not sure how the Nets will stop them in the paint. For their defense, Holiday can Guard Kyrie, while Bucks can also make some good outside shooting with the young guns and Middleton. I can't wait to see the game 1, FYI, Nets are the favorites to win the series, they also have the home court advantage.

Nets still rely on their big 3, but Bucks has more options now and Giannis doesn't need to carry the scoring load as Middleton can cover for him. So it will be offense vs defense, big 3 against Giannis all around play. I wonder though who will P.J. Tucker guard on the big 3, he has help the Bucks this year with his defense and corner 3, would love to see him against Durant in the post. That will be interesting, or lock down his former team mate, James Harden.

Poor LeBron James that’s two games in a row his teammates have all but disappeared on him. Chris Paul took a bit of a hit tonight that might hurt the suns going forward. If the Lakers can’t get some help around LeBron James though it won’t matter. Hopefully Anthony Davis comes back soon it was really obvious that he was missed tonight.
loosing Anthony davis during the playoffs series really hurt the team, its not that lebron can't carry the team but, if any team loses a part of the team that have impact, it will really change the way they play, because its their rotation, they will need to adjust immediately which is very hard, especially the are in the playoffs, but if AD can play in game 6 we might see a game 7.

Really huge for the Lakers, we have seen how the Lakers without him in game 4 and game 5, they have no answer on the Suns' offense, in short, King James can't carry the Lakers anymore, they need AD and AD is really the best player in the team. There's still plenty of time, if Davis could return in game 6, then it should give the Lakers a chance to win, but I'm not sure they'll play the same energy they do in game 2 and 3 as Davis lacks practice and he is not fully confident when he comes back.

There's still plenty of time, if Davis could return in game 6, then it should give the Lakers a chance to win, but I'm not sure they'll play the same energy they do in game 2 and 3 as Davis lacks practice and he is not fully confident when he comes back.
When AD was out due to injury in the elimination, they lost a lot of games and that's already proven that without him, they will struggle. Father time is catching up on Lebron and i do agree that he can't do it alone, when was the time he does it alone hehe? I don't think it's a good idea to force AD to play on their next as it might aggravate his injury and do further damage so i think it is better for him to take some time off and let the other guys step up. It would be nice to see the Lakers win the series without AD and bring him back in the WCF fully rested rather than forced him in the second round.
