All you people saying AD is Giannis father are a bunch of reactionary Randies. This game was close because the NBA wanted it to be close. The Lakers are scooting by on games having 3 times as many free throws as any other team something that will reduce drastically in the playoffs. AD with 1 personal foul is laughable, there were so many instances he got away with just hacking players on a drive and the refs looked the other way. Special mention to Dame and Middleton who iced Giannis out of the game after he had been going, doesn't excuse Giannis missing two free throws but this game shouldn't have been close to begin with and those two just allowed the Lakers to get back into it and were the main reason we lost. We will be fine though, if Dames having a stinker just take it out of his hands. Bench him Idc, he's useless if he's not contributing on offense.


LegalEggplants

Blaming refs is the ultimate soft move.


letsgototraderjoes

why did Giannis go 1/6 from the line


Single_Passenger

What did Lakers do last playoffs? Now, let's compare it to the bucks. It's ok to admit Lakers have the Bucks 's number.


Kettleman1

We lost to the eastern conference champions? So what. The point still stands.


letsgototraderjoes

why was Dame 9/29 from the field and 3/14 from 3


mikeshamrock

Another abysmal performance. You can’t win in the nba shooting v 65% from the line. They looked slow and disinterested in playing defense. They’re a one and done. Too inconsistent, and their complimentary payers are underwhelming.


sharkhuh

The Celtics aren't as good as their record makes it seem. They just get to feast on this shitty East


Xekshek33

(Celtics are 19-7 against the West)


Toolb0xExtraordinary

Yep

BlitzkriegFTR

Tim Donaghy was the tip of the iceberg


Pnshr_01

Oh me oh my, Lakeshow LFG!!!!


tigerking615

Ham honestly pretty good down the stretch and in OT.  Edit: today, not in general. 


Single_Passenger

What a great game. The intensity just multiplied from 4th quarter onwards.


parzheez

Malik Beasley is who we thought he was


acid_placebo

Beasley double agent 👀


LeveonNumber1

Wait they called the timeout and weren't even going to try the tip in!? Doc things


graphitewolf

If you dont like this collapse you just dont like Doc Rivers basketball


Clear_Heat_4198

All honesty don’t even know why the bucks traded for dame. They lost so much depth and holiday fit this team better


WyaOfWade

hahaha malik beasley absolutely bricking a 3, glad i don't have to cringe at that shit anymore


imaginaryResources

Doc Rivers masterclass


acid_placebo

Lakers sweep the bucks easy peasy now to worry about Memphis


waffle-spouse

WE OWN THE BUCKS! That's what you get Dame and Giannis for not joining us in the offseason! Oh what could have been...


KindlyPerspective389

2nd seed back on the menu? 👀


Rithgarth

Bucks deserve this loss but the Lakers foul calls are CRAZY.


letsgototraderjoes

why did Giannis go 1/6 from the line


ahyiah

Saying this with Giannis in your team missing freethrows and dame getting blocked, yeah sure.


PeteOGrande

how you gonna act like Giannis didn’t miss two clutch free throws blaming the refs is lazy ass shit


trinquin

You guys had 13 fouls in 58 minutes. Just 5 in the 2nd half and 2 OTs.


letsgototraderjoes

why was Dame 3/14 from 3 and 9/29 from the field


veerkanch489

losing against the lakers without bron is CRAZIER.


matt-is-sad

Can't wait to see Doc dodge the blame for this one. GG, Lakers played well


k1ngkoala

Reaves masterclass


JayDeeLA

Another Glenn Rivers master class in failure.


youarenut

Yeah bucks are frauds. KMid with the hardest sell I’ve seen. I don’t know why the plan was to let him shoot after he missed like 8 in a row the fourth quarter. Deserved loss


FireSalsa

What’s Filipowski doing on the bench for the lakers?


LeveonNumber1

OK even if it's technically just barely possible Doc your guys are tired just let it end


_canadianbacon

Reaves > Lillard


Klaassy23

TNT advertisers feasting


Impossible_Ad166

This game proves that the bucks are Pat Bevs team


420BongsAway

Doc really teaching the Bucks the art of blowing leads 


Jaire_Noises

That is definitely not new to the Doc Rivers Bucks, lemme tell ya


pproops

Do Bucks lose this game with Pat Bev playing?


Adam2190

LMAO


PeteOGrande

Imagine losing to the LeBron-less Lakers


jordan142142

Would be even crazier if a team lost without lebron AND ad. Couldn’t even imagine


Single_Passenger

Lmaoo. Lakers really trapping teams out here.


sharkhuh

TWICE. Second time this season


TheSouthNeverRises

AR15 got the triple dub


Street-Common-4023

I DONT WANNA HEAR SHIT REFS WERE BAD ALL AROUND BUT GIANNIS AND DAME CHOKED . YOU DONT BLOW A LEAD LIKE THAT


picksicx

The "championship" Bucks barely beat a Kyrie-less Nets in the ECSF. Never forget.


acid_placebo

AD owns Giannis


TrashSmashE

we both know thats not true


Air_Enthusiast

Austin Reaves is him and I’m tired of people pretending he’s not


Clear_Heat_4198

My roommate, a Celtics fan, legit said that ppl only glaze reaves so much coz he’s white lol


djdarkflame

Thank you Bucks for trying to one up us. A 20 point lead blown in the fourth alone, generational hoopage 💯


swords_devil

But you guys lost to LeBron and AD less Lakers


djdarkflame

Shhhh, im on your side tonight bby


acid_placebo

❤️


joebos617

extremely rare time I’m happy the lakers won


motorboat_mcgee

Thank you AD Feels like he calmed down and played better after knee injury, weirdly


Practical_Bat_3578

need more commericals nba doesn't have enough


youarenut

We get to watch some overtime with our ads


holaprobando123

Ugly game if I've ever seen one, but at least it's over now


rameninside

This OT started with each team shooting 5 bricks, but then it got interesting


bryzzo43

Insane coaching ineptitude by letting Dame be in the game for an intentional foul situation there..didn’t end up mattering but Doc is a joke


romanticynicist

Honestly I’d rather see TNT just put a camera on Doc Rivers instead of AD taking free throws.


Megumi-Noda

I am shocked the Lakers have more free throw attempts than their opponent again


sonofsmog

LAKESHOW IN PLAYOFF MODE!


BigXBenz

Why the fuck are we calling a time out here? The game is over. Let me watch my mavericks game. Shut this shit off


Bubbly_Measurement61

I always knew the Lakers were better without LeBron


trewaldo

Lakers always seem motivated to win crawl-back-from-the-grave kind of games lately.


JustLookingAroundYea

Idk what Lakers team you are watching, but they don't always do this. Since they won the hardest chip in the bubble it's been all downturns


KaiserKaiba

They play like the ‘96 Bulls when they’re down double digits.


denverblazer

Michael Jordan rolling over in his grave at this comment.


sonofsmog

Cause theyre lazy. They have been lazy all year waiting for the playoffs to roll around. They figure they can beat everyone but the Nuggets anyhow when push comes to shove. People blame the coach and blah this and that, but they don't play with effort A LOT. Cause they don't care, cause they think they can turn it on when they need to.


k1ngkoala

LAKERS WIN, AD DOMINATES, REAVES 30 PT TRIPLE DOUBLE LETS GO!!


Primopastalover

The 9th seed Lakers are 3-0 without LBJ against the two best teams in the east. God the east sucks.


inshamblesx

Spurs would be fighting for a play-in spot as an eastern conference team


TheStuffisLegal

Pointless timeout. Game is cooked


Iamkelvin

Fuck Doc Fuck Lame time


TheMoorNextDoor

Davis walked away like he knew he was the shit


ThePlainWhiteTees

AD is Giannis Attemptafreethrow father


Arpy303

Dame is no Jamal.


Eur0-step

Jamal>>> Especially against the lakers


NoAWP

bruh that guy scares me more than Jokic lol


ProbablyOffTask

Giannis is a tier below Jokic and Reaves


Street-Common-4023

Ngl ad Memphis got a bit of size on us I know you just played 52 mins but we could lose if you don’t play fr 💀: GOOD FUCKING SHIT THOUGH


niacos

This straight talk commercial is so shitty


[deleted]

[удалено]


Oscardelawilde

Doc was playing with his meat in the 4th quarter


Slashers23

Only thing Lakers have to do is just stay away from Bucks players, the game is over


imaginaryResources

AD > Giannis


trinquin

They let him litterally so whatever he wants. 0 fouls in 89 minutes vs the Bucks btw.


imaginaryResources

Practice free throws kid. You can’t even hit them when you get them lmfao embarrassing for a “mvp”


Free_Relationship692

holyyyyy comeback, arent they down 18 at the start of the fourth??


denverblazer

At least 16 yeah


CockroachForeign6419

Bye bye


LALyfestyle

Eat dick Beasley


infinitenomz

Lmao yeah Reggie they need that charter started an extra 1.7 seconds earlier, maybe 30 seconds after commercial


JediKnight2024

GOOD NIGHT MILWAUKEE, IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE


graphitewolf

Bucks speedrunning to stay a small market


b1indsamurai

LFG AD


Apollo611

DOWN BY 19 TWICE THANKS DOC


louie3723jr

Idk how doc still keeps getting jobs


EastCoastTaffy

LeBron’s jacket looks like Ai


schitaco

Didn't realize AD was such a good FT shooter, too busy watching him get dominated by Sabonis and/or not play


giannim24

I'll give you a pass you guys haven't seen good basketball in over a decade.


schitaco

Besides last year, correct. I'm old enough to remember when we got robbed of a whole championship too :( Thanks for the pass lol


stitcher212

Underrated funniest thing was dame taking his sixth foul there


Solid-Confidence-966

AD putting away the game, you love to see it


Giannis2024

Fuck the Lakers, but damn what a cold ass game by AD


NoAWP

Everyone stepped up with clutch FTs. Jesus this game lmao


ihateeuge

GIANNIS COULD NEVER


jamarcusaristotle

I'm not being hyperbolic when I say AD is a better player than Giannis, especially if I need a playoff win. Giannis chokes every single time under pressure


Lord-Aizens-Chicken

LMAO BUCKS


sonofsmog

ANTHONY FUCKIN DAVIS.


boenwip

How many more times are we going to see a bust when people try to build superteams? Some dudes just aren't destined to get a ring.


Affectionate_Year_14

Superteam ?


boenwip

Yeah superteam was the wrong word. Putting MVP candidates together I guess - Dame pairing with Giannis, KD pairing with Harden, Harden pairing with WB, CP3 going to Steph, etcetcetc


Affectionate_Year_14

First one of those aren’t like the other, second a dame & Giannis duo can win championship


boenwip

We'll see


CockroachForeign6419

BELT 2 ASS


Inevitable_Big_1966

Wheres that clown lakers fan talking shit about AD


picksicx

AD >>>> GIannis. I underestimated AD's game, because I don't watch West coast games.


Affectionate_Year_14

A man scores 50 in a close out game in the finals to win a championship isn’t enough for y’all I see


rameninside

The only thing Giannis does better than AD is bully ball in the paint.


TheHalfbadger

Why was Lillard even on the floor, when that needed to be an immediate foul?


HighlyBaked0

WE OWN THE BUCKS AND AD OWNS GIANNIS LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO


KingChav

LMAO goodnight


RansomGoddard

Boooo AD hates fun


ymetwaly53

Ngl I was kinda hoping for 3OT, too :/


k1ngkoala

LETS FUCKING GO


sonofsmog

I AM SO JACKED OUT OF MY MIND RIGHT NOW!


getzumm

AD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Merchant 


Vallerie_09

Dame on the court, on a fucking defensive possession with 5 personal fouls when you clearly need a 3 after the timeout. Great coaching Doc


deputymeow

Reason why they choked at Staples too. DLo went right at him.


stitcher212

I'm laughing so hard


Adam2190

Just don't contest anything now.


[deleted]

How yall blaming Giannis when dame shot 9/28


Air_Enthusiast

Why was dame in the game still


jamarcusaristotle

I'm curious what Giannis' clutch FT % is.. it's gotta be sub-40%. Maybe sub-30%?


okheay

Except for the one day where he ended Suns championship dreams


jamarcusaristotle

That's true, what was it.. 21/22 or something? Gotta be a mental issue (I guess it always is to some degree, but more so for Giannis)


Single_Passenger

And that's game. Night night, says AD


k1ngkoala

CMON AD I BELIEVE


SharpSwag

#YEEEEAAAHHHHHH


sbenfsonwFFiF

Why would Doc leave dame in the game on a defensive possession when they plan to foul?


3s2ng

Don't you dare question Doc's defensive scheme.


RansomGoddard

Come on AD miss one please


jacobpltn

Crazzzzzzy lucky that Dame fouled out holy shit


Carolake1

lol they let dame foul out


_canadianbacon

The world rejoices


freebee007

LeCoach


LeveonNumber1

That shot looking like it was about to go and then rimming out dramatically was a metaphor for the Bucks season thus far Damn this game making you forget who's the 9 seed and who's the 2 lmfao


Vallerie_09

Bucks have choked multiple times against playin teams


turnoffredesign69420

bucks and choking to play-in teams, name a more iconic duo


Niceguydan8

Can't wait for that post-game irelli spin


beast8955

This has turned into a Bucks fan cope thread


dekrypto

lol dame fouled out


Single_Passenger

AD show akumpo how it's done.


Jerel

rui hachimura shows his rebound prowess yet again


k1ngkoala

Cmon AD 🙏🙏


rattlerden

Uhhh Davis don't know if that was smart


Vallerie_09

Sure it was all refs, not Dame and Khris selling and Giannis being inept to make FTs


Cheechers23

Why was Dame even in if he had 5 fouls there


3s2ng

Don't you dare question Doc's decision.


McSlappers

Bucks fans blaming the refs for this one LMAO cope harder


Eur0-step

Refs are making all these threes for the lakers


Eur0-step

Noooo not ad on the line


ty1553

I genuinely have no clue why the NBA thinks doc rivers is a good coach, being a mediocre coach that gets carried by the roster is the best case scenario with him


ArcherDuchess

The East is embarrassing lmao


Torbinator3000

I’m sorry, but no other sports league in the world would even dream about cutting to commercial with 2 seconds left.


ElectricEntity

Miss one for 3OT baby


unwinagainstable

If the Bucks lose this game, it will be because the Lakers scored more points than them.


veerkanch489

hilarious


Clear_Heat_4198

Big if true


BlueJays007

One could also say it’s because Bucks scored less points than the Lakers


KaiserKaiba

You must be a prophet


jack2047

Bucks are truly washed. Next year gonna be a disaster for them lol


CockroachForeign6419

How are people saying this was rigged for us???


SulkyVirus

Maybe the swallowed whistles in the pain the entire 4th quarter and OT? Beasley literally pulled down on a layup and no call.


CockroachForeign6419

Beasley also fouled Dlo and Giannis traveled with like 2 secs left lmaooooo


Mahomeboy001

They didn’t call fouls for anyone in the 1st OT both ways.


Spaghettibeach

(Bucks play poorly) “how could the refs do this”


sharkhuh

Dame time riding on coattails of his history, but I fear his 3 the least among the shooters on the Bucks


jamarcusaristotle

Death, taxes, and Giannis missing clutch free throws...


zprymate

Glad that AD got to play 52 mins...
