“This Is The Funniest Sh*t I’ve Ever Seen”: Social Media Is Losing It As Jordan Goodwin Pulls Up A Hilarious Move After Stealing The Ball From Teammate Austin Reaves

NBA Scout Claims Lakers Can't Win With Austin Reaves in Big Three

The Los Angeles Lakers dropped to the third seed in the Western Conference following a 111-101 loss to the Boston Celtics. Despite the determined efforts of Austin Reaves and his teammates, the Lakers couldn’t overcome Boston’s dominance and ultimately fell short in their bid for a ninth consecutive victory.

From the opening tip-off, the Lakers played with intensity, clearly aiming to control the game. However, one of the most surprising moments of the game didn’t come from a Celtics play but rather from an unexpected blunder by Lakers guard Jordan Goodwin. In the third quarter, when the Lakers were trailing 84-67, Goodwin made a shocking mistake that left everyone in disbelief.

LeBron James passed the ball to Austin Reaves, but before Reaves could take possession, Goodwin suddenly intercepted it from his own teammate. The confusion didn’t stop there. After securing the steal, Goodwin passed the ball straight to a referee rather than a fellow Laker.

NBA fans were stunned by Goodwin’s blunder. While the Lakers were unable to capitalize on the possession, leading to a missed layup, the incident provided a lighthearted moment in an otherwise frustrating game for the team. It was a play that left many shaking their heads but also chuckling at its sheer absurdity.

Navigating Boston’s ‘big’ cap concerns with Yossi Gozlan
The Boston Celtics and Grant Williams could not come to terms on a rookie scale extension for the Tennessee alumnus ahead of the 2022-23 NBA season, with Williams instead electing to bet on himself. How could this play out for both parties given we’re hearing rumbles of interest from opposing teams? How does the looming free agency of Al Horford affect Boston’s cap space outlook? The backdrop for Boston’s offseason financial concerns for their frontcourt also takes shape with a likely cap spike and looming media rights deal that could transform labor negotiations ahead of the league’s next collective bargaining agreement, so what might something like a hard cap mean for Boston? To get a look at some lingering but timely issues from a teambuilding perspective, the hosts of the CLNS Media “Celtics Lab” podcast linked up with HoopsHype cap guru Yossi Gozlan to talk over the contours of the Celtics’ and NBA’s cap management concerns, with an unvarnished view of the team’s start thrown in for good measure. Your usual hosts Cameron Tabatabaie and Justin Quinn also touch on Kyrie Irving’s suspension in the context of a lot of bad NBA news percolating to the surface all at once this week.

CLAB 19: Remembering Tommy Heinsohn & highly subjective draft thoughts
We originally planned to talk out irrational gut feelings or overconfidence in 2020 NBA draft prospects ahead of Wednesday’s big event, but a legend passed in the interim. With franchise icon Tommy Heinsohn’s death arriving after a long absence from the team he never could stay far from, we instead chose to share our favorite memories of the Celtic giant. We’re joined by Red’s Army writer and resident historian Mike Dynon, who regaled us with a window into his early fandom watching the Hall-of-Fame player and coach move to the other side of the clipboard. We did manage to squeeze in at least some of the draft talk we’d initially planned to focus on afterwards as well. Join Off the Glass’ Alex Goldberg, Celtics Hub’s Cam Tabatabaie, Celtics Wire editor Justin Quinn and Celtics Lab’s Mark Allison as we work out our nagging suspicions about the NBA draft.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/celtics-lab-nba-basketball-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

After the game, Austin Reaves didn’t hold back in his assessment of the Lakers’ offensive struggles in the third quarter. When asked, he acknowledged the team’s inability to execute effectively during that stretch.

“Uh, just thought we were atrocious offensively,” Reaves said.

Despite the loss, Reaves delivered a respectable performance. He finished with 16 points, three rebounds, and two assists. Meanwhile, Goodwin struggled throughout his 16 minutes on the floor, managing just six points and three rebounds. The Lakers will have a chance to bounce back as they prepare to face the Brooklyn Nets on Monday.
