    My WMC (and I'm NOT blaming the loss on this) but daaaaaammnnnnn the Clippers got away with a lot of shoving. DeAndre Jordan literally two-hand shoves on EVERY screen he sets. He puts two hands on the guy and legitimately shoves him away. I mean... how is that NOT a foul? It was enough that it caught my attention so I started watching closer and EVERY Clipper shoves people CONSTANTLY. Talk about a f***hole coached Doc Rivers team... If Doc Rivers was trapped in a hole in the ground I think I'd leave him there.

    ^ You think you would leave him? Are you even a Lakers fan man?
    You should find a shovel and finish "the job". And after that, pour out some concrete just to be sure.

    Doc is the worst. I remember last year in the playoffs he was talking about how they got some really tough calls and how he never complains. Haha that was the funniest s*** I heard in a long while. He's the biggest cry baby of a coach I've ever seen.

    BUT BUT THEY STILL NEVER BEAT OUR STARTING FIVE.

    Yeah cuz Kendrick Perkins is Bill Russell.

    1-2 bags of lime and 4-5ft of earth is the only way to fully get rid of the green stain left behind by a C bag. Concrete is a nice touch but no need to spend that much money, that hints too much at constructing a tomb. No, a steaming pile of any animal s*** on top will suffice as a marker once it petrifies.

    Don't think about that Rock!

    Look over here!

    Look! Kobe's retiring! Come watch him play a few more games! Look please! This way!

    Don't look at the dumpster fire over there of less than 20 wins! Nope! Not that way!

    Kobe! Retiring! Let's all cheer!

    ^^ Yep. Byron's Scott's minimum amount of wins this season with this squad should have been somewhere around 30-32. I think most of us here thought and expressed that at the beginning of the year. I know I did.

    The fact that he could only coach this squad to half of that number is beyond pathetic. It's unacceptable. He's gotten worse not better and that's hard to fathom. And it's all our young guys' fault according to him.

    I don't know if I can watch another year of this crap with him at the helm. I just don't know. It's maddening.

    I was just thinking and remembering back in the CL days that we used to have a thread called something like Best Nightly Performers for Every Game. We would all pick who was the unsung hero for that game that made the difference in the win. THinking about our team this year and now it would be a complete joke. The thread now would be who was the biggest reason why we lost instead of won.

    Man.... times are tough for us. I'm not and I'm sure others are not expecting to get any sympathy from other fans basing because we don't want any either. But dang, looking back on the good times we sure had it really nice. The things we were complaining about :D, Sasha being only a practice performer, Luke being the human victory cigar, why aren't are team getting us fans tacos on a regular basis, I hope Phil puts in DJ when our starters sit, and I know their are countless others.

    This franchise has been a gold standard for so long that I believe it will get back to some level of respectability. When or how remains to be seen. We'll all be there to witness it again. Our misery too shall pass. Think of the Knicks who have not won a championship for over four decades. I doubt ours will be that extended...

    You play with fire (tanking) you can get burnt. **** with the Bull (tanking) you can get the horns. That f****** tank can be aimed right back at you, Jeanie and Jim on Figueroa and Chick Hearn Ct.

    Hero or Zero thread? It just became the Zero only thread so it's merged with WMC where pretty much all after-game comments go now.

    @therealdeal brought up some great points about the kid needing to give better effort yesterday during the game; I agree. irrespective of Byron's coaching, they do need to give better effort. I know Byron's motivational tactics are nothing to be inspired by, but that shouldn't negate from giving 100% effort.

    That said, we have three more games of this garbage...ugh!

    If it's me, I'm pulling the young guys aside and saying "Any second that Kobe isn't on the floor is our time to shine and our time to prove we're a core worth building around. And when Kobe IS on the floor, it's on us to go get boards and defend at a high level. Let's go out like champs even if we have to play with Kobe right now."

    I'll play well in SPITE of Byron. Take that frustration out on the opposing team. Sure Byron is a nightmare and playing with old-Kobe is no fun, but I'm going to work my butt off instead of being a sourpuss on the floor and giving the fans crap to watch.

    Today was a shame because it was such a fun game up to the mid-fourth quarter when they just went off on threes on us. Ah well. Great to see Kobe have one more epic performance. Too bad we couldn't contain them at the end.

    Used to get up at 4.30 am to watch our games for years , made 4 trips to LA to attend games , now I barely care anymore after these 3 pathetic seasons .

    f*** JEANIE BUSS , f*** JIM BUSS
