It's the first team i rooted for naturally while just watching the game, without even trying to find a team. I can't support another team, it's emotional attachment and not a logic thing tbh.why? as an impartial observer, what is it about that organization that attracts you? fusion is the only mavs fan on this site that i know of and that's because he lives there...is cuban that irresistible?
Also, in my experience, fans who move teams for their favourite player (90% Lebron but have seen it for KD, Jokic, Luka etc.) and invade team fandom spaces online when their favourite player moves tend to be the most insufferable elements in any team fandom. They pretend to care about the team but the second anyone else has a bad game, they do the ''Trade Luka, playing with the bums on this team is ruining his career" **** which is such a weird thing to say in a discussion place for fans of the team.

'mal put us on his back in the 4th today. Omg, the difference having multiple clutch closers on our team makes....

Hope this turns out to be true. Lakers have been great at home in the playoffs though.
While Jokic becomes the first ever to score 4 consecutive 20+ point triple doubles.
Another stat that the media is holding on to desperately - conference final sides that go 0-2 are 6-56, but LeBron has been involved in 2 of those 6.

Lebron’s 3s are basically turnovers at this point and those 4 points he missed in the air in the second Q when Lakers were up by about 10 killed the momentum. AD had a terrible shooting game as well.
A below standard game for Jokic, especially defensively. The team also needs to figure out a solution if possible for him getting too gassed to continue going to the bucket in the 4th.
The game was lost for LAL in that sequence when Jokic was rested in the 4th, there was zero resistance for LA to score and Lebron starts chucking threes for no reason to squander possessions even though he is 1-21 from 3 in the 4th quarter this post season.

Poor ESPN man. Think about them if it's a Nuggets-Heat Finals

They really can't back up their big performances tho. LeBron and AD aren't able to backup like they used to.

Plus the Stanley Cup is gonna be two of Carolina, Florida, Dallas and Vegas
Hard to think of these sides as "small market" given the size of the cities compared to Europe

being great at home won't win them this series though, they have to hold serve and then break through on the road...that's a big ask especially when they are down 0-2...
I've always thought that losing a road game that should've been won often results in a catastrophic defeat when returning home. But no statistical basis for this hypothesis.
