Please, god, or the devil, keep my dude AD healthy.
Block of ad and bron was amazing thats why they get game 1
IMHO, AD is determined to win 2023 NBA Finals MVP, coz' right now has a big chance, Lakers is having good defensive players AD, Vbilt, Rui, Schroder, AR, etc.. plus other good bench players. King Lebron is motivated to get another Champ trophy ๐…coz' not getting any younger. Pres & GM Rob Pelinka, my hats off to you, you've got good players after trades…nagbunga hirap, at last!!!! Hats ๐ด off!!!๐๐๐ โค Kudos to DLo, Shroeder, Vbilt, Rui..you're doing ๐ ๐ ๐ good job! Bravo Amigos! Gogogoooo GOGOGOOOO Lakeshow! LODI Lakers, petmalu at sakalam…ganda sadepen nin u๐ ๐ โค.
AD was a monster! Had more blocks then the entire warriors crew!
AD in form, lowkey about to take the lakeshow to the finals
I was waiting for the "REJECTED BY ANTHONY DAVIS"๐ข
Itโs AD time to win finals mvp ๐ฏ
The best player in the nba when healthy
This serries is more exciting than Boston vs GSW in the Finals๐คฃ
Hahaha talo lng ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
Wow ad should win defenses of the playoffs player award he's been a monster lately huge respect for him
That reporter's question at the end tho. "Why is this a must win?"
Uhhhh…….like they'd want to lose on purpose?
Young boys running out front of Bron. m I'm Masterful
Davis was so effective in the middle with the zone defense of the Dubs because of his gentle touch, unlike Sabonis in the Kings series. You can really tell the Dubs were so puzzled as they tried to double team Davis, zone him, 1on1 match but all of these he burnt them all. There was a light at the final minute of the 4th quarter were the Dubs were trying to outrun them if Davis is crashing the boards. That way Lakers can't set their defense. But at the same time this will be an advantage for the lakers as they will counter this one too.
Ad really him
Unbelievable
AD
Somebody told AD to smash them boys ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
That's the Anthony Davis i knew from college. Anthony you are the man๐
This is the Anthony Davis that the Pelicans had !!! Yall must've forgot !!! I just pray ๐๐๐ he stay healthy ๐.
AD๐
Thats easy to do when kd and mcgee out
AD was amazing offensively & defensively, Warriors couldn't get inside and died by the 3, No one is talking about how well Russell played tonight, Vanderbilt on Steph was a good move, Reaves & Schroder are difference makers.
& Yโall gotta remember last series AD was guarded by DPOYโฆLooney is not that
So in that case AD better dominate this whole series golden st has nobody who can hold him
He just might be ready to accept the torch ๐ค
Looney quickly realized this wasn't Sabonis anymore
Chuck was not lyingโฆAD could really be the best player if he wants it
if AD could just do that every game. Lakers would be unbeatable…
please stop AD
AD iconic performance ๐๐๐๐
Ppl forget AD won a college championship with like 5 blks a game , jus watched some old clips๐ฎ

A HEALTHY DAVIES IS A DANGEROUS DAVIES
Parang c kobe lng mgsalita
Ad talent for talent can't be matched in the league but if he manages to continue to play like this for the rest of the playoffs and the Lakers win the chip then he can be stamped as the best player in the NBA
Monster But He Gotta Keep It Goin Cause Really He The Best Player In The PlayOOFFS S8 UP Anything other than winning is ๐งข
And as usual AD couldnโt do it 2 games in a row. Lakers lose by 27+ in game 2.
lmao! LA would be down 0-2 if it wasn't for the free throws
What did he have tonight???? Lmaoooo 11-7-4.
