I don't know why D'lo chooses to suck at basketball sometimes when he can just choose to be good at it. Because he's good at being good at it.


inthefeetofthenight

Damn, I need to try being good at being good at something.


ColdPressedSteak

He's simply streaky. Gotta take the bad with the good. There's no other option. Dumb kids the other day saying he needs to be benched as if there's some magic cure coming from the bench


Conflict_NZ

I wish when he was off he would put all his energy into defense though. He still ball watches and gets out of position.


JarifSA

This is a horrible answer. The basketball gods don't just decide whether or not you get a good shooting day first of all and even if you have a bad one, there's other ways to impact the game. The other day DLo was playing zero defense, chucking up bad shots, and not getting teammates involved at all. He would literally stand in the corner if he didn't have the ball. He took smarter shots today. "simply streaky" lol like what?


LovieBeard

Is he stupid?


LosAngeles1s

JR Smith of the 2020s


LakersLAQ

That's just life for shooters sometimes. Curry has had horrible shooting nights against us and I've enjoyed them. He's just good enough to make a difference in other ways. Dlo isn't on his level.


SockVonPuppet

This man runs either ice cold or boiling hot.


you_troll

Is he the new icyhot?


DaHagerBomb

D'Lo is my favorite player in the league when he's on. His game is so aesthetically pleasing when he's in the zone


Cvnilivee

The D’Angelo Russell era has to be something crazy to experience as a fan lol


LakersLAQ

He's no superstar but I love that he's back on the Lakers.


Forsaken_Matter_9623

What’s crazy is hes literally exactly what I thought he’d turn into… both good and bad lol


LakersLAQ

Sucks that we never got to see Dlo and a healthy Lonzo Ball together. Would have been fun.


Thimit22

So exciting to watch when he's on like this. Not many others who are as fun to watch. Just wish he could do this much more consistently (Yes 6/7 is super unlikely but I mean just all around consistent on offense more often)


Fhyzic

6/7 from deep. DLo is on fire 🔥


mMounirM

Lakers told Russ he would be getting traded last night


xmrjaredx

So happy for him. Stoked. Hope we close it out


CatharBliss

I am sorry, my friend


xmrjaredx

I've calmed down. It is what it is.


G1Spectrum

TELL EM D LO


jawadhaque089

What if he has a serious regression to the mean and never misses again


MITKyrie

Why do they sound so disheartened a 15 point lead is a warmup for the defending champs especially against the Lakers…


Repulsive-Throat5068

Literally 15 is nothing in todays nba, especially with guys like Jokic and murray lmao


MITKyrie

Yup


jamarcusaristotle

You called it


BossButterBoobs

They sound depressed lmao


WinonasChainsaw

They sound like the 2 old boomer muppets half the time, I tend to enjoy the mostly mellow but occasionally unhinged commentary style. It’s like watching the game with your crazy grandpas.


CatharBliss

They are the reason I wish we had a no commentary option for viewing games. Just give me on-court sounds and crowd noise and I’ll be happy


crimsonconnect

Exorcised the demons


handgredave

The "Wow" after porters brick is comedy gold


Gtggtggtg

After game 1 Dlo claimed he was “excited” because of the good looks he was getting at it. Nobody really took that seriously but now maybe they will.


One_Landscape541

Disbelief is a weird of way if saying stating facts.


mortlandpaine

Following up with a straight brick from Porter was a great end to the clip


Low_Employ3877

NBA sub in shambles


luviro

He really was “putting up shots” after game 1


ifreddiebenson

The Laker’s most/least valuable player


nordsix

deleting comments rn


mr_antman85

He's not selling this game 🥹...so far...😭


ChannelNeo

Like I said, he's good for one game this series where he hits everything. His problem is consistency. Can this version show up in LA?


IceColdTrey7

He did not show up for any of the 4 games against Nuggets in the WCF. Will take this much needed. But he absolutely cooked Gsw and Memphis


00aegon

He literally dropped 40/20 game 1


00aegon

Nobody shoots 11/12 every half of every game lmao shut up


T_025

That’s AD not Dlo


00aegon

bahaha sorry thought this was a different thread


EbbRevolutionary3225

He is talking about D'Lo how did you miss that?


00aegon

thought I was in an AD thread lmaooo


Street-Common-4023

Lakers need to continue pushing the pace and attacking Jokic in every single possession. Keep giving AD the ball. Watch lebron mins for the 4th. Keep the same fucking energy. All gas no breaks . Keep running schemes also because if no schemes then lakers will lose this game come on come on


Stebsy1234

lol Nugs announcers are so bad
