    We were tied for the most wins with the team we played tonight because we have sucked badly the last three... No inside game without All Lefty Randle tonight. Too many threes taken... Every loss it seems we can't get out of third gear. We're there yet everything is an uphill climb. Defensively we just don't go after it.

    ...not that bad as the previous seasons but could be enough to land in the top three in the draft. Tonight's game is a microcosm of the season, cut the deficit down to single digits and be within striking distance. Then inexplicably give up a small (five to seven points) run to the opposition.

    Last season, down early and it's game over...no chance all the way through.

    Isaiah Thomas leading his team to victory with big 4th quarters over, and over, and over again. C Bags are now 2nd in the East at 32-18, so glad we didn't settle for such a mediocre player by giving him money that would seem in comparison to the time, like a mega bargain right now. Supposedly Thomas is the worst defensive player in the entire NBA by some advanced statistic I forget, but whatever, sure doesn't seem to be costing them wins or showing up in the eye test. We're in this mess because of the 2007 free agent plan playing out also from like 2012 on, where we refused to sign decent players and only went after stars. Then when we finally do throw 2nd level money at middle of the pack players, it's on Deng and Mozgov. Smart moves.

    But it's ok, we have Magic now. And he's proven his acumen outside of his playing days from his coaching excellence, mastery of social media, respect for team ownership, and edgy and controversial broadcast opinions.

    Comments like that only put the Lakers in a worse position in potential trade talks for a superstar. Not that he isn't being Captain Obvious but savvy GMs will prey on Magic's lack of FO experience and desperation.

    Love Magic! Hoping for better than this bottom basement performance from J.B. and Mitch for the past several years. When you are scraping the bottom there's no place to go but up, unless of course you are J.B. and you just stay at the bottom humiliating Dr. Buss' legacy even further.
