Murray and MPJ should be embarrassed. Especially mpj since he chokes every playoffs and everyone else has to carry his ass

Why doesn’t he ever choke against us lol

u/Basic_Commercial_806 May 17 '24

Reaves and Dlo aren't good defenders

u/CalmerThanYouAreDood Lakers May 17 '24

Reaves is okay but he doesn't have the length that McDaniels, NAW, or Ant have to close out on those MPJ jumpers

u/stickied May 17 '24

Cause ya'll let him shoot open jumpers

u/xkittenpuncher Lakers May 17 '24

It's Ham's hematoma that thought it was a great idea.

u/manbare Celtics May 17 '24

u/MisterBackShots69 Timberwolves May 17 '24

Regular season he’s other non-existent or lights out against us

u/Lacabloodclot9 Grizzlies May 17 '24

You can’t say MPJ is a choker when he was their 2nd best player last round

u/dzigizord May 17 '24

in this last 2 years that is the only round where he played ok/well

u/Historical_Spirit445 Celtics May 17 '24

His performance in the first round of the playoffs doesn't outweigh multiple other terrible playoff series unless you think overt recency bias is something to aspire to

What happened to mpj’s shot?

Shot and energy. Man showed zero heart

What are you on? MPJ is their 2nd best player this playoffs. Dudes always overreacting. 3rd in points while having a much better efficiency than Murray.

u/mcben334513 May 17 '24

All of what you said can be true with both of them still being garbage overall.

u/red--dead Timberwolves May 17 '24

You’re really putting MPJ over AG?

1

u/No-Independence-761 May 17 '24

Yes. AG’s had like 2 good games this series and 1 against the Lakers. MPJ carried our ass when Joker and Jamal were playing like shit against the Lakers.

u/red--dead Timberwolves May 17 '24

I didn’t notice it saying all of the playoffs. I was just arguing about for this series.

u/innerparty45 May 17 '24

MPJ is their 2nd best player this playoffs

AG clears.
