Mar 13, 2017 at 8:18 PM - ElginTheGreat: Bring on George. I'm all for it.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:18 PM - The Showtime Mamba: If Fisher can't capture my attention as a commentator he couldn't reach me as a coach as a 18 year old nba rookie.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:19 PM - Cookie: Nice find by Russ
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:19 PM - ElginTheGreat: Not a big fan but you might even convince me to take on Blake Griffin at this point.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:19 PM - RandleROFY: Larry might not be, but we will see.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:19 PM - Weezy: I can't be too harsh on Fisher, none of these guys can be happy to have to call this game. Plus fish is employed by Spectrum so he can't get to real
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:20 PM - RandleROFY: It doesn't have to be Blake. We just need 1 star and the rest will follow.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:20 PM - Weezy: F*** Blake Griffin
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:20 PM - RandleROFY: Elgin, do yourself a favor, though.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:20 PM - ElginTheGreat: Randle - yeah. I think we will need the top pick to get Larry to give up George.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:21 PM - RandleROFY: And check on Butler's contract for Chi
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:21 PM - RandleROFY: And compare it to what George will get paid next season
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:21 PM - Cookie: No flopping, crying wiener Clippers on this team
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:21 PM - RandleROFY: From just a cap perspective, we can add more talent to our team and around Butler.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:22 PM - RandleROFY: Fiscally, it just makes more sense.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:22 PM - ElginTheGreat: I don't like Blake but I can't deal with another year of being one of the worst teams in the league.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:22 PM - ElginTheGreat: Randle. Those are good points.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:22 PM - RandleROFY: From a talent standpoint? Butler us about as good...
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:22 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Respect Fisher a lot, but it feels like he is grinding out a paycheck.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:22 PM - RandleROFY: Is
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:23 PM - Cookie: Man we can't finish around the basket
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:24 PM - Cookie: We are clueless
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:24 PM - Weezy: I don't think Blake makes us better. Without CP3 he isn't as impressive, and on a crappy roster I can see him crumbling. He's mentally weak, hes disappeared in big moments, broke his hand punching a guy, acts like a fake tough guy, he has Clipper stink on him
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:24 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I would allow Blake Griffin into the p & G even though he screams douche.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:24 PM - RandleROFY: Russell is struggling.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:24 PM - Cookie: Bench Russ again
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:25 PM - RandleROFY: It doesn't even have to be Griffin.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:25 PM - Weezy: I don't think Blake adds wins, just someone I hate I have to root for. Oh and he's injury prone
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:25 PM - RandleROFY: Just get a proven All Star this summer.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:25 PM - RandleROFY: 26-28 that will help us.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:26 PM - Weezy: Who is available this summer? Any players I would want are not available til '18 I think. Hayward, Westbrook, George
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:26 PM - ElginTheGreat: I agree with getting anyone who will help
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:26 PM - RandleROFY: It would have to be a trade.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:26 PM - RandleROFY: And sacrificing some of the youth that we have.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:27 PM - ElginTheGreat: I agree with the knocks on Blake. I still see us making a run at him.

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 8:27 PM - Cookie: No blocking out
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:28 PM - Cookie: 19 point lead
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:29 PM - Weezy: I've already said what I'd give up for PG. Randle and Clarkson, or Russell and pieces. The draft pick if we get it. Can't give up 3 position players and gut our team though, like Randle, Clarkson AND Zu. That leaves us needing a backup guard, PF and a C
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:29 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Our moves have to be dominoes falling rather than trying for the jack pot (Lebron etc). A shame our team is so amorphous.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:29 PM - The Showtime Mamba: No leader, no defensive identity, no closer etc.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:29 PM - RandleROFY: Agree. You only give up 1 main asset
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:30 PM - RandleROFY: 1 OF top 3 pick, Russell or Ingram.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:30 PM - Cookie: We can't play defense and don't have nearly the shooters we need.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:31 PM - RandleROFY: This game is over.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:31 PM - RandleROFY: Poor Luke
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:31 PM - lakerjones: Well that escalated quickly
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:32 PM - Manve77: 0-16 run
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:32 PM - Cookie: These shots are terrible
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:33 PM - Juronimo: This is depressing
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:33 PM - svtzr: LOL METTA
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:33 PM - svtzr: Tank tank tank!
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:33 PM - Cookie: Metta to the rescue
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:33 PM - lakerjones: Wow MWP sighting.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:33 PM - Juronimo: Artest in the game. White flag waved
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:34 PM - lakerjones: Only down 28 folks
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:34 PM - Cookie: Metta to the line
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:34 PM - Weezy: Damn we suck. We are the 2nd worst team in the league again
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:35 PM - The Showtime Mamba: MWP for two steals this game please.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:35 PM - Manve77: better play Moz then Ron)
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:36 PM - Cookie: we've given up 61 points with 4:30 left in the half
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:36 PM - Cookie: Nice block by Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:36 PM - Khmrp: 30 or 40pt loss tonight?
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:36 PM - Weezy: That defensive change in the starting lineup did wonders
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:38 PM - Khmrp: Luke just as cluleless as boron, just nicer bout being clueless
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:38 PM - Weezy: I wouldn't go that far
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:38 PM - Cookie: Look at those faces on the bench
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:38 PM - Weezy: B0ron was the worst coach ever
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - RandleROFY: Team is on life support.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - Khmrp: Hes still adjusting lineup this late in the season....that screams not knowing
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - Juronimo: Im done. I cant watch this anymore.

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Boron burnt bridges while he was still on them.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - RandleROFY: Magic has a mess in his hands.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - RandleROFY: On
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:39 PM - Weezy: I'm not sure these lineup changes weren't demanded from the front office
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:40 PM - Khmrp: Well thats y i said luke just nicer but overall still clueless
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:40 PM - RandleROFY: It's possible, Weezy
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:40 PM - Weezy: Magic talks about wanting Zu to start, he starts. He talks about getting a good look at Nwaba, he start starts.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:40 PM - Khmrp: We had weird random wins over good teams with boron too...just saying
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:40 PM - RandleROFY: You're right.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:41 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Our players have gone from passive aggressive to jut passive and apathetic.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: Luke is a rookie 36 year old coach tho, B0ron had years and years of time, not the same
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:41 PM - alam1108: three steps forwardv 5 steps back
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:41 PM - sirronstuff: the skillset to manage seasoned vets and champs is totally different than managing inexperienced rookies/young players.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: Cuz opposites attract!
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:41 PM - The Showtime Mamba: DAR is either the key to making the team work, or we need to dump him fast.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:42 PM - Khmrp: Well poop stinks, just stinks differently from each person lol
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:42 PM - sirronstuff: did someone call me?
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:42 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Luke deserves time, but yes it does feel like he is running out of ideas.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:43 PM - Manve77: -28 ...another a** rape(((((
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:43 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Well it is Denver...
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:44 PM - Cookie: At least Metta is trying
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:44 PM - Khmrp: Give up 30+, can barely score 20....solid effort
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:44 PM - Khmrp: Makes me wonder if they actually practice or practicing sucking
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:45 PM - Cookie: Great pass Metta to Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:46 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Metta is all the veteran leadership we needed, he said in retrospect.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:47 PM - therealdeal: I've been half watching the game and half watching OJ vs. the People on Netflix
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:47 PM - Cookie: I'd take Metta over Deng any day. Especially cause we pay him peanuts
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:47 PM - therealdeal: is this as embarrassing as it looks?
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:47 PM - The Showtime Mamba: When Shaq watches people dunk, i'm sure he imagines himself dunking.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:48 PM - Cookie: It's probably worse Real
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:48 PM - The Showtime Mamba: It's another tinman game.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:48 PM - RandleROFY: Yes
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:49 PM - Weezy: Yes, real
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:49 PM - therealdeal: what's with all the young kids on the bench? No heart?
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:49 PM - RandleROFY: It's disgusting.

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 8:49 PM - Weezy: Yeah I'd say no heart is accurate
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:50 PM - Weezy: This team has no idea what winning feels like or how to do it, all they've ever known is being a bottom feeder lottery team
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:50 PM - Khmrp: Or as some put it...its normal for young teams to look this pathetic
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:50 PM - RandleROFY: None. If they're playing like this, and they know their under evaluation, ship them all out.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:51 PM - The Showtime Mamba: We aren't getting Kidd for our Bynums though unfortunately.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:52 PM - Khmrp: Send dlo with hou 1st for the 6th and 7th pick lol as krl luts it
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:52 PM - Weezy: I still think they have decent value to the right desperate team that's gonna lose their star for nothing.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:52 PM - Khmrp: That will wake up the rest of these jokers
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:53 PM - Manve77: I don't want any picks. Just by the ready made stars and role players. Like Cavs do))))
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:53 PM - Weezy: I don't know how much seeing someone being traded away would wake any others up when every trade exept
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:53 PM - RandleROFY: Trading Lou should have woke them up.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:53 PM - Khmrp: Sure if we had a lebton on tje team
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:53 PM - Weezy: Except one takes them to a better team
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:54 PM - Weezy: Is threatening to trade young players off of the 2nd worst team in the league really a threat
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:54 PM - Khmrp: Thats y u send dlo to sac lol
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:54 PM - Manve77: draft picks are either immature underfed kids, or lazy and cocky teens with no shot and no ballz.(((
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:55 PM - Weezy: Some of these kids might even be happy to get out of the LA spotlight as I don't see any real desire to live up to the pressure in them
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:55 PM - RandleROFY: I don't want it to be a threat. It probably is going to be a reality.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:55 PM - Khmrp: Well when they visit dlo in sac theyll see how miserable he is hahaa
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:56 PM - RandleROFY: I don't want it to be a threat. It probably is going to be a reality.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:56 PM - Weezy: I don't know, Cousins is gone now, sacto might be fun now
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:56 PM - trodgers: This is a "fire Luke" night.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:56 PM - sirronstuff: www.fireluke.com
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:57 PM - therealdeal: I have no desire to dump the kids, but packaging them for a guy? Bring it on.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:57 PM - Khmrp: Naw its still sac lol
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:57 PM - Khmrp: Well at least city of sac might not be as fun as la
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:57 PM - RandleROFY: Down 24. At the half.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:58 PM - trodgers: Everyone looks awful tonight.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:59 PM - trodgers: Luke's letting Clarkson Hero Ball, and he has the young guys playing more tentative than ever.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:59 PM - lakerjones: Agreed.
Mar 13, 2017 at 8:59 PM - Weezy: Yup
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:00 PM - trodgers: If I were Luke, I'd get thrown out to see if the guys would play loose without me.

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 9:07 PM - Cookie: We suck
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:07 PM - sirronstuff:
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:07 PM - RandleROFY: Pretty much
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:08 PM - therealdeal: sort of just looking out of the corner of my eye but looks like it's getting worse
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:08 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Clarkson's short jumpers decay my purple and gold soul..
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:08 PM - Cookie: I can't see any positives for this game
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:09 PM - Manve77: come on, pass to Zu. Let him get 30+20 or smth...)
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:09 PM - RandleROFY: This game sucks. This team sucks.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:10 PM - RandleROFY: Lol
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:10 PM - Khmrp: TO dont work luke
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:11 PM - Cookie: Nice D that possession
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:12 PM - therealdeal: Clarkson just throwing stuff up at the wall
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:12 PM - therealdeal: good thing it's working
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:13 PM - LakerFanIam: Shaq & Fish are more boring than the game...
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:13 PM - Weezy: So we have 37 wins in our last 148 games... 149 games after tonight
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:13 PM - Weezy: I didn't wanna do the math, but I'm bored
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:13 PM - RandleROFY: LOL!!!
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:14 PM - sirronstuff: +4 with Metta in the game. Obviously our best player. Blow this crap up.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:14 PM - RandleROFY: What a joke.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:14 PM - The Showtime Mamba: We need to simulate game conditions in practice. start with a 30 point deficit.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:14 PM - Manve77: can we get Gasol back or smth?
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:14 PM - Manve77: Nevermind...just stupid thoughts...(
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:15 PM - trodgers: We suck so bad.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:15 PM - Manve77: We are oficially the new Philly (((
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:15 PM - Weezy: I wouldn't wish this on Pau, I like him
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:16 PM - The Showtime Mamba: They had a puff piece on truehoop about the Nets, it actually made them sound more organised than us. Ullp.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:16 PM - RandleROFY: Rob, we need a miracle.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:16 PM - Cookie: Nice shot BI
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:16 PM - trodgers: You think Clarkson has some dirt on Walton?
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:16 PM - RandleROFY: Gosh Randls
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:16 PM - trodgers: Or is this simply how we're taking?
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:17 PM - trodgers: "tanking"
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:17 PM - trodgers: Denver can't believe how awful we are.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:18 PM - RandleROFY: Z
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:19 PM - RandleROFY: I like Nwaba. Keep him

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 9:19 PM - Cookie: Zu cleaning up our messes
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:20 PM - RandleROFY: Russell missing chippies
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:20 PM - revgen: Shoebox bringing us back
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:20 PM - trodgers: Nwaba is exactly the kind of player we need on the roster - at worst at the end of the bench.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:22 PM - Cookie: Nice move by Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:22 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Agreed Trodgers, he is that number 11 player in a great team.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:23 PM - The Showtime Mamba: It is not just this game, Shaq cannot do commentary, he is just not that kind of talker.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:23 PM - Cookie: Make your free throws
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:23 PM - Cookie: Russ misses both
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:23 PM - revgen: C'mon DLO
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:24 PM - revgen: Luke took out Zu. Tank is on.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:24 PM - Cookie: JC and Russ are both black holes this game
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:24 PM - sirronstuff: only down 21, this is doable
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:25 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I can't remember having so many frustrating players on one team.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:26 PM - Cookie: Our team IQ is lower then our 72 points
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:26 PM - revgen: I can. Kwame...Smush....Sasha...Young Rookie Bynum...
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:26 PM - revgen: Kobe made the crap look better. We don't have that luxury.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:27 PM - Cookie: Nice clean up by Nance
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:29 PM - RandleROFY: We looked better that quarter.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:31 PM - revgen: Defensively, we've made improvements each quarter. Nuggets scored 35 in the 1st. 32 in the 2nd. 26 in the 3rd.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:33 PM - Cookie: Not a good way to start the quarter
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:36 PM - sirronstuff: Just need to play 4 more quarters, and we have a shot!
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:36 PM - Cookie: We've given up 102 points already with 9:42 left
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:36 PM - Cookie: Good ball movement there
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:37 PM - Cookie: We need shooters desperately . Our guys miss wide shots all day
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:37 PM - Cookie: If we aren't going to play defense at least we need to score
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:38 PM - Khmrp: Nobody in this team knows how to defend screen and role even if their lives depended on it
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:40 PM - Khmrp: They all look like luke on d when he was playing
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:40 PM - Cookie: Nice pass from Russ to Zu.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:41 PM - sirronstuff: 9-11 for Zu doesn't suck
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:42 PM - Cookie: Nice shot by Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:42 PM - Cookie: BI gets hot all day on shots
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:42 PM - Cookie: Hit not hot
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:44 PM - trodgers: He doesn't get hot much
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:45 PM - sirronstuff: Denver getting 3 happy

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 9:45 PM - Cookie: No unfortunately not
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:47 PM - trodgers: Zu's coming out party at least.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:48 PM - revgen: And against good competition like Jokic too.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:48 PM - Cookie: Nice hustle rebound by Brewer
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:49 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Zu better than Moz forever now hopefully
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:49 PM - Cookie: Zu bank
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:49 PM - John3:16: Zu has 22 and 10 in 25 min
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:49 PM - Cookie: Nice ball movement by Denver
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:50 PM - Exonyte: Zu is really something eh?
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:50 PM - John3:16: 24
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:50 PM - Exonyte: any reason why deng/moz arent playing? (havent been watching any games this season)
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:51 PM - trodgers: Only 25 times has a teenaged big scored more points than Zu tonight - at least in the last 50 years.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:51 PM - Cookie: They suck and we are developing our young guys since we are out of the playoffs
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:52 PM - revgen: Ticky tack foul on Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:52 PM - trodgers: Sorry; only 14 times.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:52 PM - Exonyte: makes sense. those 2 are really cashing the money for sitting on the bench then sigh
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:52 PM - Cookie: 14 times Trodgers. That's impressive
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:54 PM - trodgers: Watching Ingram's shot - there's something wrong with it, obviously. Is it too much backspin? Is it not enough arc?
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:54 PM - trodgers: Is it that it's coming from across his face a bit, so it has side to side movement on it?
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:54 PM - trodgers: For real, Cookie
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:55 PM - Cookie: More Zu less Tarik
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:55 PM - John3:16: Ball will help Ingram with his shot.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:55 PM - revgen: Even Hibbert can't stop Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:55 PM - Khmrp: Our guys must be allergic to defense
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:55 PM - Cookie: Hibbert would just fall on the floor
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:56 PM - therealdeal: I'm watching OJ vs. the People and this game and I'm not sure which is more shocking
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:56 PM - trodgers: A 66% FT shooter isn't going to teach Ingram anything about shooting.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:56 PM - trodgers: Now only 8 times has a teenage big scored more than Zubac tonight.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:57 PM - Cookie: Dumb turnover by Randle
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:57 PM - John3:16: I was joking T. Ball's shooting form is ugly
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:57 PM - Exonyte: 25-10
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:57 PM - trodgers: Haha. We could have the ugliest shooting forms ever - with Nance in the mix.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:57 PM - Manve77: Zu. Keep him. Ingram too. Throw away everybody else.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:57 PM - trodgers: Only six 25/10s from a teenage big.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:58 PM - Cookie: Feed the Zu monster

 

Mar 13, 2017 at 9:58 PM - Exonyte: wow trodg
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:58 PM - trodgers: Drummond, Howard, KAT, Davis, Okafor, Griffin. Well, and Zu.
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:58 PM - Exonyte: 5/6 of those are beasts
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:58 PM - Manve77: Where are you getting these stats, Trod?)))
Mar 13, 2017 at 9:59 PM - trodgers: basketball-reference.com - searchable.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:00 PM - Manve77: thanks
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:00 PM - trodgers: They called Zu "Zu Alcindor" during the telecast tonight.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:00 PM - revgen: C'mon Zu. Gotta make those.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:00 PM - Cookie: Make your free throws Zu
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:00 PM - trodgers: Welcome, Manve.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:00 PM - Cookie: Thank God that's over
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:01 PM - revgen: Only Zu and Metta had a positive +/-.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:01 PM - Weezy: 129 points allowed..
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:01 PM - revgen: Zu's +/- is significant since he played 30 minutes.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:02 PM - trodgers: Time for some soul-searching. Even if this is the tank in full effect, it's awful for our players' psyches.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:02 PM - scnottaken: Our defense has more holes than a chain link fence.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:02 PM - Weezy: Agreed, trodgers, all these kids know is tanking/losing
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:03 PM - Exonyte: is the tanking ever gonna stop lmao
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:03 PM - Weezy: It's going to become routine. That's how you turn into Philly or Brooklyn
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:03 PM - sirronstuff: @dloading with the worst +/- on the team at -33. Way to show the coach his decision was wrong.
Mar 13, 2017 at 10:05 PM - Khmrp: Did he meet his per36? Lol

 

Mar 15, 2017 5:12 PM - Cookie: Zu needs to finish that
Mar 15, 2017 5:13 PM - Cookie: Nice move by BI on Ariza
Mar 15, 2017 5:14 PM - Cookie: Good find by Zu to Randle
Mar 15, 2017 5:14 PM - Cookie: I miss Ariza
Mar 15, 2017 5:15 PM - Cookie: Come JC. Stupid
Mar 15, 2017 5:15 PM - lakerjones: Zu is setting folks up well.
Mar 15, 2017 5:16 PM - therealdeal: Zu was just haaaaaalf a second late on that pass to Julius. As he plays more that read will come faster
Mar 15, 2017 5:16 PM - lakerjones: Randle is playing well so far
Mar 15, 2017 5:17 PM - lakerjones: Turnovers
Mar 15, 2017 5:17 PM - Cookie: Jorden you need to catch that
Mar 15, 2017 5:17 PM - therealdeal: Ingram late on the pass and not in the right position to get Clarkson the ball. Nice play though
Mar 15, 2017 5:17 PM - therealdeal: Julius took that shot on the way up. Weird.
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - therealdeal: great look by Ingram
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - Cookie: We need shooters
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - therealdeal: Clarkson has to hit that
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - lakerjones: Another good pass from Zu to Julius
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - Cookie: BS foul
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - therealdeal: nice
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - lakerjones: Yeah, Clarkson needs to improve the 3s
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - therealdeal: Zu and Julius look like they can vibe a little with some time together
Mar 15, 2017 5:18 PM - lakerjones: that's true realdeal
Mar 15, 2017 5:19 PM - therealdeal: Julius with some poor effort on that transition defense.
Mar 15, 2017 5:19 PM - Cookie: 2 fouls on Zu
Mar 15, 2017 5:19 PM - therealdeal: bad call on Zu
Mar 15, 2017 5:19 PM - therealdeal: but he's jumping a little right now instead of playing fundamental d
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - lakerjones: Going small
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - Cookie: Randle playing the 5
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - therealdeal: Russell in for Zu?
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - therealdeal: interesting
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - lakerjones: Nice take Julius. He's playing very well so far.
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - Cookie: Nice move by Randle
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - therealdeal: nice
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - lakerjones: Wow, 11 points in five minutes!
Mar 15, 2017 5:20 PM - lakerjones: Tough switch there
Mar 15, 2017 5:21 PM - Cookie: We are too short out there

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 5:21 PM - therealdeal: I hate this switching defense
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:21 PM - lakerjones: Russell with that lazy pass
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:21 PM - therealdeal: it's lazy
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:21 PM - Cookie: Bad pass Rus
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:21 PM - therealdeal: it's Luke throwing a white flag out for these kids not to have to fight over screens
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:22 PM - LTLakerFan: DAR 1st pass ....no look turnover
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:22 PM - therealdeal: I really don't know where that kid's head is at
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:23 PM - therealdeal: for the record Trudell on the radio today said Russell doesn't have a lot of off-the-court distractions
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:23 PM - therealdeal: he's just struggling to figure things out on the court
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:23 PM - therealdeal: Mychal Thompson was dubious, but that's what Trudell said anyway
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:24 PM - Cookie: Already down 8
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:24 PM - LTLakerFan: BI!
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:24 PM - therealdeal: nice possession for BI and Russell there.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:25 PM - Cookie: I can't stand Harden
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:25 PM - trodgers: No one can stand Harden.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:25 PM - therealdeal: jeez good defense by Ingram there better shot
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:25 PM - trodgers: I see Clarkson tore it up as the initiator.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:25 PM - therealdeal: wow great transition defense there........
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:26 PM - therealdeal: nobody stops the ball and instead fouls him. Jeez.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:26 PM - therealdeal: great Nance d
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:26 PM - Cookie: Second dumb Russ in 2 minutes
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:26 PM - LTLakerFan: Russell another sloppy pass TO.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:26 PM - therealdeal: then a dumb Nance foul
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:27 PM - therealdeal: it was a good idea from Russell, but the execution was off
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:27 PM - therealdeal: oooo JC atta boy
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:27 PM - Cookie: JC Circus shot
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:27 PM - therealdeal: great nance d
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:27 PM - therealdeal: good fast break
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM - therealdeal: late rotation by BI
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM - therealdeal: genuinely this transition defense is horrendous
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM - LTLakerFan: Great pass on break from DAR
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM - Cookie: I wish we had the ball movement that Houston has
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM - Cookie: Nice steal by Russ
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM - therealdeal: good d by Russell dropping to the level of the ball
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:29 PM - Cookie: Nance why walk away from Lou

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 5:29 PM - therealdeal: BI blew that defensive coverage on Lou
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:29 PM - therealdeal: Transition defense transition defense transition defense... just f***ing awful
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:30 PM - therealdeal: Cook I think that was BI. BI switched on that for some reason, but both of them should have communicated.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:30 PM - Cookie: He did Real but once the switch happened Nance should have picked him up.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:31 PM - lakerjones: Russell with a million turnovers already.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:31 PM - therealdeal: what I mean is they both switched on and then they both abandoned the ball. Someone has to stay and since it was BI's guy with the ball, I blame him. I think we're both right.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:31 PM - Cookie: Just our usual s***ty defense
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:31 PM - therealdeal: neither guy talked enough on the switch
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:32 PM - trodgers: I think we can all agree that this benching DAR is doing wonders for the team.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:32 PM - trodgers: Guys are locked in, making sound plays, knocking down their shots, and making the right play on D.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:32 PM - trodgers: Kudos, Luke.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:32 PM - Cookie: Stupid possession by JC
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:33 PM - therealdeal: good skip by Russell, just slightly off the mark and then JC holds the ball for 7 seconds
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:33 PM - Cookie: Like hard and should complain on any foul
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:33 PM - trodgers: At least Nance is doing work.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:33 PM - therealdeal: good take by Russell
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:33 PM - Cookie: Nice clean up by Nance
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:33 PM - therealdeal: where's Nance's help with Nene around the rim?
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:34 PM - jbiggs: kept em below 40
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:34 PM - trodgers: Help defense? I don't think we've learned that yet.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:34 PM - Cookie: Man we suck
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:34 PM - jbiggs: nice job boys
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:34 PM - therealdeal: JC doing a great job moving the ball.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:35 PM - therealdeal: I don't think anyone on the team stops the ball as much as JC. Randle is the only one close
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:35 PM - LTLakerFan: Where's Cookie ..... tell Luke we'Re too small out there
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:35 PM - Cookie: JC pound the ball enough and it will deflate
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:35 PM - jbiggs: lmao almost spoke too soon
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:35 PM - jbiggs: i havent watched any nets games this season, but do they look like us
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:36 PM - Cookie: I already did LT lol
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:37 PM - LTLakerFan: I know..... he needs to hear it agai.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:37 PM - trodgers: These young bucks...
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:37 PM - trodgers: I would trade losing all the games for the rest of the season if we can beat Harden tonight.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:37 PM - trodgers: I don't care if it's Brewer who puts the team on his back.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:38 PM - Cookie: It doesn't help that Zu got 2 fouls quickly
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:40 PM - LTLakerFan: Is Black dressed?

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 5:40 PM - jbiggs: louuuuu
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:40 PM - Cookie: I think he is LT.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:40 PM - Cookie: He could always put TRob in
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:41 PM - trodgers: DA's going for a double double - points and TOs - tonight.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:41 PM - LTLakerFan: DAR trying to get his a** traded 4 TOS in 7 minutes.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:41 PM - trodgers: Maybe 3x2 - with missed FGAs
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:42 PM - trodgers: I'd look for a trade, too, if I were Russ.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:42 PM - therealdeal: flop flop flop
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:42 PM - trodgers: In fact, if I were any Laker, I'd be looking to get traded.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:44 PM - Cookie: Maybe we fans can get traded to a better effort giving team also
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:44 PM - trodgers: Mark it down: only down 16 when Tarik checks in. It's comeback time.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:44 PM - trodgers: *sigh* This team has mostly destroyed my confidence in them.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:46 PM - Cookie: I expected to lose a lot of games this year because of the young guys learning curve. Not because of lack of hustle and heart.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:47 PM - LTLakerFan: Lou's torching us. Of course.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:48 PM - Cookie: I can't believe Randle got that back
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:48 PM - Khmrp: 4 to already feom pur savior
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:48 PM - LTLakerFan: O MM G Randle LOLOL
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:50 PM - therealdeal: looked like a charge to me
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:50 PM - trodgers: Savior? Jordan? Because he's the big dog now.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:50 PM - Cookie: 4 on 1 and Randle doesn't pass it
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:50 PM - therealdeal: should have passed it to Clarkson
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:50 PM - trodgers: Or maybe Young. He started and lit it the f*** up.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:50 PM - therealdeal: bad defense by Randle
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:51 PM - therealdeal: bad offense by Clarkson
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:51 PM - trodgers: It's bad all around.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:51 PM - therealdeal: great rebound
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:51 PM - Cookie: Nice rebound by Randle
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:52 PM - trodgers: We'll give up 70 or 80 by the half.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:52 PM - trodgers: Let's say 70. And we'll be down 25 or so.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:52 PM - Khmrp: All this experiment is just making things worse....walton=clueless
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:53 PM - LTLakerFan: Doubt it was Walton's idea.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:53 PM - trodgers: I don't think so either.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Khmrp: Not saying hes bad coach, just clueless
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:54 PM - trodgers: There's not really anything worth watching this season.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:55 PM - trodgers: Zu Alcindor enters.

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 5:55 PM - LTLakerFan: Why clueless if the word came down from Magic and Rob?
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:56 PM - trodgers: It's how tactlessly it's all handled that bothers me.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:56 PM - LTLakerFan: Aree.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:56 PM - LTLakerFan: Agree
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Khmrp: Just inserting players expecting different results with no sets or scheme
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Cookie: Nice steal and pass to Randle
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:57 PM - therealdeal: Zu immediately picks up his 3rd foul
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:57 PM - trodgers: Maybe Julius will score 50 tonight though.
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:57 PM - Cookie: Zu in 2 seconds later a foul
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:58 PM - therealdeal: Nick Young 0-5
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:58 PM - LTLakerFan: Again likely not Luke's idea to be playing D leavers and castoffs
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:58 PM - trodgers: @therealdeal That's called starting!
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:58 PM - therealdeal: we run so little weak side action...
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:58 PM - trodgers: "Byron Scott discusses why the word "tanking" should never exist in a team's culture because players will begin to accept losing as the norm."
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:58 PM - Cookie: Nice screen by Randle on Harden
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:59 PM - therealdeal: Ingram pass to himself
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:59 PM - Cookie: Randle very active tonight
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:59 PM - Cookie: Nice to see
Mar 15, 2017 at 5:59 PM - Khmrp: The o and d hasnt improved one bit...cant blame magic or rob for that
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:00 PM - LTLakerFan: Going for 40
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:00 PM - therealdeal: Julius strong right now
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:00 PM - Cookie: I'm loving Randle's effort
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:01 PM - trodgers: Great effort. Must've hung out with BI though; hit the FTs, young fella.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:01 PM - Cookie: Zero D
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:02 PM - Cookie: JC just let him dance on by you
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:02 PM - therealdeal: weak side again
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:02 PM - LTLakerFan: KH if his rotations have been blown all to hell not totally on him at this point. You expect finely oiled machine with what's left out there?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:02 PM - The Showtime Mamba: We can't even threaten the youngsters with trading. As noted Economist Andrew Bynum stated, there is a bank in every town.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:02 PM - therealdeal: no rim protection. no communication. no movement
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:02 PM - trodgers: @Showtime Classic line.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:03 PM - trodgers: We're scoring well. Just a shame that we can't get within 100 miles of playing defense.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:04 PM - Cookie: 0 for 8 on threes. If we could start hitting a few of them it would help
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:05 PM - trodgers: C'mon, BI. Can't get blocked, young fella.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:05 PM - therealdeal: Ingram should have passed it
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:05 PM - trodgers: Russ can't hit FTs now. He's clearly mentally destroyed.

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:05 PM - trodgers: Thanks, Magic.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:06 PM - trodgers: BTW, when there are numerous questions about your ability to play the PG spot, so you offer to play off the ball, and they bench you, that tells you...
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:06 PM - trodgers: ...that they don't respect you very much.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:07 PM - trodgers: BI, young fella.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:07 PM - Cookie: Nice pass from Randle to BI
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:08 PM - Khmrp: Hou probably score more pts from 3 then we as a team will in total
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:08 PM - trodgers: Wow. Ingram has 12 and 3 in the first half, too.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:08 PM - Cookie: Nice JC
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:09 PM - ElginTheGreat: Yeah. We've pretty much crushed Russell and are tanking his trade value
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:10 PM - Cookie: Dumb play by Harden
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:10 PM - trodgers: Much better second half.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:10 PM - Khmrp: Suppose to prove people wrong, if you getting worse we dont need players like that
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:10 PM - trodgers: Second quarter...oops.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:10 PM - jbiggs: seems like were down by a lot more
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:10 PM - trodgers: @Khmrp: this idea that there's a player with a set ability level, and they just have to overcome all obstacles to do it is insanity.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:11 PM - trodgers: There's no shame in, I don't know, caring about your players...and nurturing them...especially if it helps them perform.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:11 PM - trodgers: Randle and BI: 34 points on 18 FGA.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:12 PM - LTLakerFan: Tarik putting his arm on Russell's shoulder and talking to him as they walked off the floor at half. Good teammate.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:12 PM - trodgers: Tarik should punch him in the face. Toughen up, kid.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:13 PM - LTLakerFan: LOL
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:13 PM - Khmrp: @trodgers....i dont really know y dlo is benched but if you show up like this, doesnt help your cause
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: Agreed trodgers. Team's been railing on the kid from the moment he walked in the door.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:13 PM - LTLakerFan: Yep
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:13 PM - therealdeal: I don't know if it's a season low but we have 5 assists at the half.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:13 PM - therealdeal: as a team
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:14 PM - therealdeal: Russell has 4 turnovers by himself.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:14 PM - The Showtime Mamba: DLO has talked himself into a corner with this fan base, with all his finals talk and all his iceberg veins sinking us like the titanic.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:15 PM - RandleROFY: Forgot we had an early start
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:15 PM - RandleROFY: I see nothing has changed: down by 14. No surprise
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:15 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I don't think management can take the blame for DLO. Winning solves everything and DLO seems to have taken them worst of all.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:16 PM - RandleROFY: Surprised it isn't more
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:16 PM - The Showtime Mamba: We don't even start playing till we are 15 down. We should just spot them 15 and use all 48 minutes to come back.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:17 PM - RandleROFY: Russell is a talented player; but I'm not opposed to moving him
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:17 PM - RandleROFY: I believe strongly that there is stuff going on behind the scenes w/him
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:17 PM - RandleROFY: but that's just speculation

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:18 PM - Khmrp: I never thought losing affected dlo with his blase attitude
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:18 PM - The Showtime Mamba: There has to be. I don't want a 2nd round pick from 2067 and an Edsel for him
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:20 PM - RandleROFY: I hear Indiana is a wonderful place to lose
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:20 PM - ElginTheGreat: no way is anyone going to trade George for Russell.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:20 PM - therealdeal: It'd have to Russell + something of course
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:20 PM - therealdeal: Russell/Randle/Black makes some sense
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:21 PM - trodgers: I can't see how Russell "talked himself into a corner."
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:22 PM - trodgers: If one of our young guys does anything but fellate the legacy of the Lakers and talk about basketball 24/7, the fan base s***s on them.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:22 PM - The Showtime Mamba: They need to do a new sports science on his narcoleptic turnovers and use hi tech labs to measure his entitlement.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:22 PM - ElginTheGreat: If we had left him as a starter and his numbers bounced back then maybe. I can't see it now. I think Indy will want Ingram in any deal at this point.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:23 PM - ElginTheGreat: We've made him toxic. Gonna be like the Queens trying to trade Cousins at this point.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:23 PM - Khmrp: Whatever happened to russell, its his own doing....hes been given the keys since days 1, everything done to him after he caused
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:23 PM - trodgers: And even when they talk about basketball, if it's not "I will sink 1000 jumpers while squatting 500 pounds and eating lean protein, eight days a week," that's a spoiled player.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:23 PM - therealdeal: I don't think that's true Elgin. I'm not sure benching him hurts his stock as much as his performance
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:23 PM - trodgers: Given the keys? Come on.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:24 PM - RandleROFY: Byron wasn't good for Russell's development
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:24 PM - therealdeal: He was doing so well though that I think there's teams out there who would think a change of scenery would do him well
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:24 PM - ElginTheGreat: I hope you are right. I have serious doubts at this point.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:24 PM - trodgers: I can't think of one player on our team who would be worse elsewhere.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - The Showtime Mamba: @trodgers, I did not express it, but acknowledge when we are losing DLO, didn't have to do much incite fans.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - RandleROFY: but I don't care at this point. I'm mostly tired of losing, and if one or a package of players helps us bring back a player that can help, I'm all for it
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - ElginTheGreat: I also don't know if I trust us with another young player. We need vets.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - therealdeal: I'm with you ROFY
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - therealdeal: I agree Elgin
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Especially casual fans who still harp on about the phone thing with Nick Young.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - RandleROFY: If we drafted Kat, this isn't even an issue
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:25 PM - trodgers: I agree; we haven't done well with young players.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:26 PM - ElginTheGreat: Oh yeah. I'm tired of all of this. Trade em all at this point just get us some wins.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:26 PM - trodgers: @RROFY I disagree there. I don't think KAT has that much greater ability than all of our young guys; we've clearly had a hand in this. We might well be better though.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:26 PM - trodgers: Young opens up off target.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:26 PM - RandleROFY: Really? I think cat is a star in the making
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:26 PM - RandleROFY: Kat*
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - therealdeal: KAT is special though ROFY
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - RandleROFY: and his mentality is mature beyond his years
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - therealdeal: abeer talked about how much it would suck if we at #2 we missed out twice and that may be true

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - RandleROFY: Oh, we did
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - RandleROFY: Make no mistake
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - RandleROFY: Simmons and Kat will be stars, IMO
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - therealdeal: I mean the second one would be Ingram and I'm not sure that's true yet
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:27 PM - trodgers: He is a star in the making. I think DAR is, too. And Ingram may be as well.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - therealdeal: I like Ingram quite a bit
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - RandleROFY: I like Ingram, but I've seen KAT take over games
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - The Showtime Mamba: This benching of DLO etc does seem to be a byronesque move that will do no good imho.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - therealdeal: Jeez Julius is locked in
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - RandleROFY: and be that 'guy' consistently
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - therealdeal: I mean Ingram vs. Simmons
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:28 PM - trodgers: Yeah; Julius is playing a game and a half tonight.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:29 PM - trodgers: This is the Julius I'd rather see - not the initiator Julius.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:29 PM - therealdeal: KAT vs. Russell is pretty clear at this point. The gap could close a bit, but KAT is a special player. He filled out physically in a way I didn't expect
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:29 PM - therealdeal: great defense from Zubac
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:29 PM - trodgers: No disagreement here.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:30 PM - therealdeal: great looking set right there
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:30 PM - trodgers: I think we can D up on these guys. This team - oh God - has the grit to take it to teams, but they need help flipping the switch now.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:30 PM - trodgers: But we give it right back.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:30 PM - therealdeal: lazy pass from JC
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:30 PM - therealdeal: good d from Ingram
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:30 PM - Khmrp: Dlo wpuld be lucky if he closed the gap on Porzingis and i dont even think hes that good
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:31 PM - therealdeal: flop by Beverley
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:31 PM - trodgers: single digits.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:31 PM - therealdeal: I think Porzingis and Russell is much closer than people realize
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:31 PM - therealdeal: Porzingis is a lot of hype machine
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:31 PM - trodgers: He's a year older than Russ, too.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:32 PM - RandleROFY: My station isn't working. What the heck?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:32 PM - trodgers: Two s*** plays by Russell.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:32 PM - ElginTheGreat: That Porzingis bubble is long past due to pop.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:32 PM - trodgers: Luke knows what's wrong...
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:32 PM - Cookie: Russ can't make a shot
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:32 PM - RandleROFY: Russell needs the summer off.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:33 PM - RandleROFY: His auditon isn't going to well
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:33 PM - trodgers: Zu at 4 PF?

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:33 PM - therealdeal: Russell is 2-8 for 5 points and 5 turnovers
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:33 PM - RandleROFY: Lol
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:33 PM - ElginTheGreat: We've got talented young guys. I just don't think we have a system in place to develop
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:33 PM - trodgers: I think Russ wants out, and I don't blame him.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:34 PM - Cookie: Randle showing he wants to stay
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:34 PM - therealdeal: Randle with 30
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:34 PM - RandleROFY: Randle is auditioning well
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:34 PM - ElginTheGreat: great game from Randle. He's really putting on a show.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:35 PM - RandleROFY: You see that Bird?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:35 PM - therealdeal: Ingram with the shot on Julius ouch
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:35 PM - Cookie: BI trying to take Randle out
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:35 PM - Cookie: 5 fouls on Russ
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:35 PM - RandleROFY: Russell 5 fouls. Wow
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:36 PM - RandleROFY: Something is going on w/him
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:36 PM - Cookie: Nwaba in
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:36 PM - therealdeal: See benching doesn't hurt Russell's value as much as games like this. Yikes.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:36 PM - Cookie: Watch the Energy go up
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:37 PM - trodgers: No GM watches this game and thinks Russ doesn't have it. They think, "The Lakers can't ask much for him."
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:37 PM - Cookie: BI for 3
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:37 PM - therealdeal: horrible defense by Randle
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:37 PM - therealdeal: worse defense by the tag man on the roll
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:38 PM - trodgers: Brandle getting it done.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:38 PM - Cookie: JC for 3
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:38 PM - therealdeal: good challenge by Julius
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:38 PM - trodgers: Brandle is 20-25, 48 points.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:38 PM - therealdeal: Beverley is out of control
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:38 PM - Cookie: Box out
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:39 PM - Cookie: Nice boy down 8
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:39 PM - therealdeal: Zubac leads the team in assists
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:39 PM - therealdeal: he's got 3
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:39 PM - RandleROFY: Not too bad. Keeping it competitive at least.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:39 PM - Cookie: That should say only down by 8
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:39 PM - ElginTheGreat: Nice little comeback we got going here
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:40 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Someone should tell DLO we are not gonna cut him and have him sign with the Cavs.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:41 PM - therealdeal: Does Julius get to 40?

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:41 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I think so real.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:41 PM - ElginTheGreat: I think so
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:42 PM - The Showtime Mamba: anti-jinx.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - Juronimo: offensive foul? where?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - therealdeal: how was that an offensive foul?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - therealdeal: what the hell?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - therealdeal: wow
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - Juronimo: oh harden was there, that's why
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - Cookie: It's because it's Harden
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - Cookie: Good grief
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - therealdeal: call him "One Effort Julius" on defense
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:43 PM - LTLakerFan: He was too strong ripping it back. Foul.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Cookie: Where's our foul
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Cookie: Down 15 quickly
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:44 PM - therealdeal: 3/16 from deep for us
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:44 PM - therealdeal: 10/29 from deep for HOU
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Cookie: Nice tip out by Tarik
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:45 PM - Cookie: Nwaba should be at the line
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:45 PM - therealdeal: great opportunity for Nwaba
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:45 PM - The Showtime Mamba: How nice for Harden to have his personal point valets dressed as zebras.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:45 PM - therealdeal: good idea from Ingram
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:45 PM - RandleROFY: We need more athletes like Brewer
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:46 PM - RandleROFY: He's a beast on transition.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:46 PM - Cookie: Lol Showtime
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:46 PM - RandleROFY: I love the pace he plays at
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:46 PM - RandleROFY: And his energy
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:46 PM - RandleROFY: I hope Nwaba is at the end of the bench next season
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:47 PM - RandleROFY: He's grown on me
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:47 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Brewer is a joy to behold in this Swedish art movie of a season.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:48 PM - therealdeal: I'm sorry I read it wrong. Clarkson leads with 3 assists
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:49 PM - trodgers: Ingram's gone cold in the time I walked away. Sorry, guys.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:49 PM - therealdeal: Ingram/Julius are 20/27. The rest of the team is 11/36
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:50 PM - trodgers: Oof.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:50 PM - Cookie: Lou didn't get his reach in foul
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:50 PM - therealdeal: Harden with the easy triple double

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:50 PM - Cookie: It would be nice if Brewer could make some threes
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:51 PM - therealdeal: If Bewer could make threes he wouldn't have been dumped for Lou probably
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:51 PM - therealdeal: Brewer
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:51 PM - therealdeal: Jeez JC
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:51 PM - trodgers: This is true; always been a knock on Brewer.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:51 PM - Cookie: No box out
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:51 PM - The Showtime Mamba: To be honest Harden is usually threatening a trouble double by the end of the first these days.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:52 PM - therealdeal: To be fair to the Lakers they're likely going to get a quadruple double out of Harden. He's got 9 turnovers
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Cookie: Oh well we got it down to 8 at one time
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:52 PM - therealdeal: almost an 8 sec violation from JC
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:52 PM - RandleROFY: Oh my
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Weezy: Lol @ JC possibly being our future pg. All Magic had to do was ask anyone with eyes if that was a good idea
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - therealdeal: It's crazy but JC working as hard as he can is D'Angelo playing lackadaisical
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - trodgers:
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Cookie: At least JC knows the shot clock
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - RandleROFY: Lol
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Juronimo: ha
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:53 PM - therealdeal:
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:54 PM - RandleROFY: When was the shot clock game Sunday?
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:54 PM - trodgers: That escalated quickly.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:54 PM - The Showtime Mamba: JC overthinks, DLO is too casual and thoughtless.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:54 PM - RandleROFY: He might have been out drinking on Saturday.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:54 PM - Juronimo: he was drinking a can of "IDGAF"
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:54 PM - Weezy: Yeah, but JC working as hard as he can only leads to him bumping into his very evident ceiling.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:55 PM - Weezy: JC is not the pg of our future, he's a solid bench scorer that can't play defense
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:55 PM - trodgers: LOL; someone posted "Harden on that video game mode." He's at the triple double, but he's got 9 TOs, and he's at 50% on FGs, 1-6 on threes. That's a tough video game.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - ElginTheGreat: Clarkson isn't the answer at PG and we all know it.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - trodgers:
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - The Showtime Mamba: DLO drinks and we get the headaches.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - trodgers: JC interview:
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - RandleROFY: Nope, Elgin. He plays at Washington. LOL
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - Weezy: Lol trodgers
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:56 PM - trodgers: Exactly, showtime. Maybe Magic should talk to him. Apparently, all Magic did was have sex. Didn't affect his game.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - trodgers: (Except for, you know, prematurely ending his career and making him miss those few seasons...)
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - ElginTheGreat: I really likeFultz

 

Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - Weezy: Ouch Lou, that hurts
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - Cookie: Lou lighting us up
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - RandleROFY: Lou killing us
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - trodgers: Lou's stealth tank commander right now.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:57 PM - Weezy: And here we traded him to a possible finals team, out here embarrassing us
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:58 PM - RandleROFY: Me too, Elgin. Provided we see fortunate enough to keep our pick, I'd love to least work him out.
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:58 PM - RandleROFY: Are*
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:58 PM - Weezy: I'm hoping like hell that we get that top 3 pick if Magic is stupid enough to trade one of our core like Russ to get it
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:59 PM - Weezy: Yeah, let's get rid of 2 years of development and start over
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:59 PM - RandleROFY: Sounds good to me. LOL
Mar 15, 2017 at 6:59 PM - trodgers: Terrifies me, too, Weezy.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - RandleROFY: They'll trade the pick. Don't worry. I just like Fultz.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - Weezy: Lets waste assets that could possibly get us an established star to take yet another 19 year old
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - trodgers: Brandle.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - RandleROFY: But I like winning more.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - Cookie: Nice D by Russ there
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - trodgers: This is such a huge problem for tanking teams:
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - RandleROFY: We have a roster full of youth.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:00 PM - trodgers: You create a tank culture, get young, and have no one to teach and no one to mentor (which are two different gigs) the young bucks.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:01 PM - RandleROFY: We need to get rid of some. No argument here.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:01 PM - Cookie: Look...Nwada playing defense
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:01 PM - Weezy: If they want to trade Russ for PG or Butler, fine. For Ball tho? Please
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - RandleROFY: Who said for Ball? Where is the link?
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - trodgers: What's cooler than cool?
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - Juronimo: nick going for 0 for 20
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - trodgers: The Lakers.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - Cookie: Nice rebound Nwada
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - therealdeal: Randle playing very lazy right now
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - trodgers: @Juronimo: That's called STARTING.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:02 PM - The Showtime Mamba: A Harden MVP award, with a D'Antoni coach of the year would be the icing on the cake this year.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:03 PM - Weezy: I put 2 and 2 together. Ireland said we're auditioning JC at PG to possibly trade Russ, and that if we don't get that top pick maybe we'd try to trade for it
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:03 PM - Weezy: For ball
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:03 PM - ElginTheGreat: Randle - Ireland mentioned trading for Ball today.
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:03 PM - RandleROFY: Really?
Mar 15, 2017 at 7:03 PM - trodgers: Hit a f***ing shot, guys.
