Takes

Need a proper investigation into the courtside newborn’s parents. How do you let them in the building without being skeptical or at least giving them some ear muffs on the house? Did the baby buy a ticket?? Lakers new ownership just letting anyone in to Crypto???

Saint Petersburg, FL

Shoulda gone to bed when the newborn sitting court side went to sleep 💤 that’s on me

Lebron gave the rockets a free win before their trip to Cancun

Wow ayton surprised me😧

The lakers just can’t close this series out even when AR is back game 6 it is now after looking like the lakers could have swept them

Really wish the Lakers would have won this game because DeAndre Ayton was fantastic tonight.

@laclevelandgurl

lakers istg if you do not win this series i will lose my mind. lebron pls stop trying to make threes you can’t make. nice seeing AR on the court again. can his bf please come back and join him too we desperately need it.

imagine how being the first ever to lose a 3-0 lead would affect lebron’s legacy

Wouldn’t it be funny if we are to be the first team to choke a 3-0 lead lmao

@DarthPlagueisTheWise

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to finish this one last night, but the Lakers come up short on finishing the series

Typical Lakers loss

Sadly I will not be able to make the lakers in 5 meme 😔 infact the Lakers might lose a 3-0 lead the way this is going! LeBron really needs to clutch up and GIVE THE GOAT MORE.MIMUTED bronny james sat out way to long give my goat some minutes 6/10

@underwoodforheisman

One word: Yikes. Ayton carried us tbh

Maybe the Lakers should just let Luke Kennard lead the team and not Reaves. He shot awful lol. Such an unserious team. Rockets might just be coming for the first reverse sweep in NBA history.

Partially Watched

I only watched the first half because a thunderstorm came and took my power from me so I went to bed. Not ideal circumstances. But the lakers refuse to close out this series and it will probably go to 7. From what I saw in the first half, it was not great basketball. Pretty sloppy with some bad shots. AR returned tonight but it still was not enough.
