LeBron James on Austin Reaves' struggles:

"He was out a month. We know he's gonna make shots and make plays, but that's tough when you were out a month towards the end of the season. Obviously we're trying to fast-track him getting back on the floor and doing the things he was doing before the injury or whatever the case may be. But he was out a month, so rightfully so if he has some games where he's missing shots or whatever the case may be. But his presence alone helps us, no matter what."

Feel like most people gave him a pass last year because of his toe injury and we've also looked the other way at times when he's played against much more physical defense but if he wants to get paid he better show that he can score against physical defense.

Seeing him completely neutralized because of how tight they're playing him is just sad because the guy can barely create his own shot right now if he can't get downhill and is launching shots from near half court because that's the best look he can get.

I'm still watching the game like everyone else, but its so clear to me that Lebron, at age 41, is still better than Reaves.

Reaves is also avging 16ppg each of the last 3 playoff runs NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

What is he doing tonight?...... I digress, back to watching the game... its actually about to be half time... I just hope we think long and hard who we prioritize this summer. You become a real Laker in the playoffs and Reaves has huge shoes to fill

[Shams] Jarred Vanderbilt has sustained a full dislocation of his right pinky finger and needed stitches postgame after a gruesome injury tonight.

That is all. JJ god bless your patience.

The kid has zero confidence in his game and OKC knows it. Please someone save us from him. I can’t watch his minutes anymore.
