    Would like to see your sig photo more clearly. Looks like a lugee on CP2's left cheekbone, which could conceivably have come from Melo inadvertently per the timing and angles of that visual break down and theory the other guy put up last night. But look at the front of Rondo's mouth in that not clear image in your sig. Looks like something running down it????

    I hope Jeanie instructs Magic to send all the clips of the BS calls Harden got last night which prompted BI's outburst in the first place, along with Hart's blatant clotheslining that was only called a flagrant 1..... to Silver's office.

    Missing Rondo and Ingram vs Spurs, Suns and Nuggets.

    Missing Ingram for another Spurs game.

    Gonna be a tough stretch.

    I hadn't looked at the first ten, but the first two were losses to me. Suspensions might lead to dropping a couple possible wins against SA and phx.

    You can blame the D all you want, the refereeing in the NBA is starting to get to Roger Goodell NFL level. It's unbarable. When are these players going to get on Adam Silver for this? NBA players have a little clout and influence because Adam Silver is a great guy and commissioner. These rules are getting to the point of exhaustion.

    Our D has been rather terrible...but it seems like the entire NBA plays no D these days.

    You look at the scores and most games are very high scoring. Its higher pace, more 3s and less defense.

    Pelicans have been averaging 140 points or something. They scored 149 the other day. Its amazing to me. You would be forgiven to believe that every game is the all-star game.

    WMC at the moment: KCP having no impact whatsoever and Kuzma's terrible defence as the backup 5. Would of much rather kept Randle.

    Kuzma is a tweener between 3 and 4...he is a little too slow for the 3 and a little too weak for the 4...definitely not strong or big enough to play 5 by any stretch of imagination. With him at 5 we are terrible at rebounding, defending the paint or blocking any shots.

    Last year Lopez was also terrible at rebounding but Lonzo, Randle etc. were solid rebounders. This year we are getting crushed at the boards.

    it's like teams saw houston get away with it and assumed it was the new normal. uh, that's a unique situation, folks. in fact, NO stomped houston the other day by simply finding anthony davis after every switch. wait til they see gs in the playoffs with cousins instead of zaza.

    Wait till we get Randle. He may break McGee in two or at least a rib or his nose, first quarter with his revenge fueled adrenaline rage .... then what?

    it's not just the lakers. every team needs to adapt to how the game is played now with the ticky tack nonsense. it's practically who can outscore who now unfortunately

    I've just woken up to see we had a 6 point lead with 50 seconds to go in overtime and LBJ clanked two FT's at the end? Fml.

    Well we knew there would be growing pains but man this one is painful. You could point to a few things that contributed down the stretch; giving up a wide open Rudy Gay three pointer, Lonzo not paying attention to Patty Mills letting him get to his spot, and not to mention the choke job at the line by Lebron. All we needed was at least one... BTW Luke is generally pretty good at out bounds play but apparently not at the end of games.
