The Rui Rhetoric: “If he’s not hitting shots, he’s USELESS.” Midrange: 99 Career Playoff 3FG%: 48.6% (#1 in History) Lakers’ Career 3pt Shooting: 2023-24: 42.2% 2024-25: 41.3% 2025-26: 44.3% Idk…KINDA seems like he’s ALWAYS hitting his shots. So wtf are you whinin’ about

Dalton Knecht looks a Hot Mess in Southbay’s Playoff game right now… Two straight turnovers, gets scored on, almost a 3rd TO off his own dribble in the span of 3mins…

Cam Reddish finally gets to be himself. 😂 Crazy that he’s still only 26yo.

“AR &amp; Luka are two of our Closers. &amp; we just all try &amp; sprinkle in &amp; do what we need to do Defensively to help those guys out.” So much respect for LeBron, man. He was the Clear Number Two tonight- But he continues to Prop Luka &amp; AR up as The True Big Two.

24yo. 6’7, 7’0 wingspan. 40% 3fg (this yr &amp; Career). Yucky contract - but he’ll still only be 27yo when it ends &amp; his deal will just be the Full MLE then. If the Lakers don’t want to give up their 1st &amp; can flip Vando + DK for him? Yeah. Don’t Pooh-pooh Patrick Williams.

What in God’s name… Is THIS?!? 🫨🫨🫨🤯🤯🤯 Even before the Left-handed tomahawk- I’m still marveling at the quick 2nd Bounce to sky for the board… Holy shit. Adou really is a Generational Athlete.

“Come on, Smart - you gotta be better.” - Marcus Smart, to himself. Project Bring Smart Back At All (Most) Costs Next Year.

• 9 Straight Wins. • 12 out of their Last 13. • 21 Games Over .500. • Best Player in The Game in 2026. • Highest Scoring Duo in the NBA. • GOAT Adapting &amp; Doing What It Takes In His Twilight. • The Role Players Are ROLE-in’. So Many Moments This Year. Special Season.

That’s a pretty looking, fluid stroke by Adou. Was known as a Shooter in HS before his crazy growth spurt also caused his Hands to grow to such an extent- It messed w/ his shooting mechanics and he’s had to re-acclimate &amp; adjust himself ever since.

Kuzma isn’t the Shooter or Efficiency monster Rui is. But he’s the VASTLY superior and more mobile Defender. I actually think he’s the Rui + Vando fusion we’ve been searching for. And I think he can be had for Pennies on the Dollar given MIL’s situation.

Watch Mañon &amp; Thiero on this entire play. These dudes are Selling Out nearly every time down. These dudes MOVE differently.

No one has a more Accurate &amp; Precise Scramble Pass off the floor than Marcus Smart. Candidate for Lakers Sequence of the Season.

After knocking down 2 more 3’s tonight- Vando is now just 6 3pters away from surpassing his TOTAL amount of 3PM during his first 3 yrs with the Lakers. He’s also just 8 3’s away from hitting a new Career-High milestone in Total 3pters made in one season. Keep Shooting, Vando.

Drew Timme had a great game tonight (31 pts, 11 reb, 4 ast) &amp; I actually think he’s beneficial to a GLeague squad in helping get dudes organized and setting up Healthy Offense. BUT- In what world is he ever doing this in the NBA? We don’t even let AYTON do this.😂

Jarred Vanderbilt | “Finally 3” &amp; D Vando knocked down 3 3pters for the FIRST time in his Lakers career vs HOU. He’s hit at least ONE 3 in 5 straight games. He’s 7/13 from 3 (53%) since he returned to the Rotation. S/O to Vando for putting in the work &amp; sticking w/ it.

Tap &amp; Shoot. This angle of DLO’s No-Dip clutch 3 is the wildest one I’ve seen yet- You really see how instantaneously he launches the ball upon receiving the pass. It’s almost all one motion. 🤯

Rui Hachimura: GOOD Defense on Ace Bailey &amp; Collier?? 😱 It’s True. And here’s the Rui-lity: Rui Defending Onball, Man-to-Man, No Screen? Sometimes Really Solid to Great! Rui Offball and/or Chasing Dudes Off Screens? Always Horrible. Let’s have him do the former more often.

There was NO FOUL called here. If this had been SGA- Flagrant 2, EJECTION on Defender AND Defender’s Unborn Child.

“My Favorite Player Ever is Kobe. *Motions to LeBron* As you know.” - Austin Reaves via Mind the Game They don’t call him “Hill-Billy KOBE” for no reason. 😤😮‍💨🐍

We just witnessed the Best Playoff 3pt Shooting Display in Lakers History (when taking into account Volume). And it came from a Japanese kid from Toyama, Japan: Rui Hachimura. 33/58 3fgs | 56.9% 3fgs | 3.3/5.8 3pm Appreciate it fully. No “Buts”.

Lakers need to get Luka and LeBron a Big Man this Summer. The Big Man they should trade for:

Anthony Davis: 17 pts | 17 reb | 4 ast | 3 blks | 2 3PM Mavs have won 3 In a Row. Hell yeah, AD. Stay Healthy.

🎥: An Unexpected 6’8 3&amp;D Wing- There’s a player in the NBA- Who plays like a mini-fusion of: MATT BARNES + LONZO BALL (??) And when you take a closer look at his game, you’ll see why. 🔗: The 3&amp;D Wing No One Suspected-

Every Year, it’s TRADE RUI For: • Bruce Brown (+ a 1st) • Jerami Grant (+ 2 1sts) • Kyle Kuzma (this was me 🤢) • Cam Johnson (+ 1st; shooting 27% 3fg) • Nikola Vucevic (🤮) Meanwhile, Rui: 16.3 PPG* 2.0 3PM* 58.6% FG* 52.4% 3FG* *All Career-Highs

ADOU THIERO vs Jaylen Brown. • Physicality • Strength • Fluid Mobility • Motor &amp; Endurance I even included Brown’s Makes on Adou; just to show you how tough they were. My goodness. The Lakers truly have a Burgeoning Defensive Demon on their hands. What do you see?

Cooper Flagg... Looks like the Prime, Rookie/Sophomore version of: AARON GORDON. Idc what anyone says. And this is NOT a slight. Cooper looking like Prime Aaron Gordon at 18 is GOOD THING.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker: 18.6 ppg | 3.1 reb | 3.6 apg | 0.9 spg | 0.9 bpg 46% fg | 36% 3fg (2.3 3pm) Now THIS is a player worth giving the 2031 Unprotected 1st for. THIS is the TWO-WAY POA Defender the Lakers NEED. (Now would ATL do it? That’s another question…)

I don’t think there’s any current FA Center who’s actually better than Christian Koloko. Mo Bamba is prob “the best” due to his freakish length &amp; spacing ability- But in terms of mobility &amp; lob threat, it’s CK. Heck, CK was already miles better Defensively than Mark Williams.

Yeah. Get me Precious Achiuwa. If no Horford, quick pivot to Poster Precious. Maybe they can even get Both? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Rui Hachimura was in his “Kawhi Aspiration” Midrange Bag last night. These are some beautiful looking off-the-bounce Pull-Up jumpers. Show Me The Middies.

BEHOLD: The Lakers FOUR Made Field Goals in the 2nd Quarter: • Marcus Smart Hail Mary • Rui Tough Contested Layup • Luka Tough Contested Drive • ISAIAH JOE TIPPING IT IN FOR US WE NEEDED A THUNDER PLAYER TO HELP US SCORE 😭

Jaxson Hayes had his SECOND Between-the-Legs East Bay Dunk as a Laker tonight. His 1st? 2 yrs ago vs the Raptors. Which one was Cleaner? 🤔

Highest 3pt % in the NBA This Season: 1. Tari Eason (50.9% | 2.5 3PM) 2. AJ Green (49.3% | 3.3 3PM) 3. RUI HACHIMURA (48.5% | 1.9 3PM)* *Career Highs in Both 3FG% &amp; 3PM. The Lakers have a Samurai Sniper 🥷 🎯

“We want 2 1sts &amp; Dalton too.” - Nico “No. 1 1st. Luka is fat. And we don’t know if he’ll re-sign. Want me to ask him &amp; his agent?” - Rob “NO! Ok. Deal.” - Nico Live Look at Rob Pelinka in those super secretive Luka negotiations:

Wait… Is MAXI KLEBER just the PF version of JAKE LARAVIA? • High Motor Hustle &amp; Physicality • High Basketball IQ • Good Positioning • Good Connective Playmaking • Inconsistent Offensively/Shooting-Wise • Makes Winning Plays *Westbrook ‘Ahh’ Lightbulb Moment GIF*

🎥: Jake LaRavia | Defense. Specifically on Jimmy Butler. So… Why wasn’t this 6’8 hustle dude (who guarded a PG, SG, &amp; SF at different times in the Opener) just STARTING over Gabe Vincent instead? #NoMoreGabeGalaxyBrainsPlease

What are the Lakers gonna do at Wing?? Start Rui??? Well, I have a wild Pitch for you: How ‘bout - while we wait for LAL to Trade for a Wing Defender- We turn back to the OTHER Forward on our team who will be coming off his 1st Healthy* Offseason in awhile: JARRED VANDERBILT.

“AR & Luka are two of our Closers. & we just all try & sprinkle in & do what we need to do Defensively to help those guys out.” So much respect for LeBron, man. He was the Clear Number Two tonight- But he continues to Prop Luka & AR up as The True Big Two.
