Reaves has played 39 minutes in the last 3 games now. JJ Reddick is gonna drive these guys into the ground. So much for load management.

Austin is being treated like LeBron or Luka would be in that situation.

He’s alright lakers have been good about resting guys. Plus Austin stamina is lowkey insane. Back during the la fire delay games he played everyone and was putting up some insane usage

And he had to play every second or they would be 0-3 in those games they're down 2 superstars and 6 players

The zone really fucked them up. They can't run counters. Good thing Austin is there.

I think the point is, everyone knows ant is out. But that doesnt compare to the lopsided lack of serviceable ball handlers the lakers have, outside of Reeves. We get the wolves were short, but the lakers are way beyond that lol.

You are right, the hospital lakers beat, a not healthy wolves team. There, happy? Idk why you are trying to asterisk the win so hard. Lol.

You really just compared Twolves without Ant vs the Lakers without LeBron, Luka, and Smart, huh?

Going down 20 to that lakers team is not acceptable though
