Dec 25, 2019 at 8:00 PM - LaVarBallsDad: as long as the rosters remain the same - and if the Clips happen to meet the Lakers - it's a 6 game series right now
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:00 PM - abeer3: i mean, leonard is going to score over any guard that isn't tall and strong. our only hope against him in isolation is AD and lebron
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:00 PM - LaVarBallsDad: imo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - svtzr: If Lebron goes his normal playoff mode, we’re good with anyone
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Leonard had this nice step-back 3 over Davis
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - LaVarBallsDad: it was nice
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - LaVarBallsDad: lol
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - LaVarBallsDad: LBJ is 35
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - abeer3: disagree. think we can play better. with svtzr on playoff lebron--i'll believe it's dead when i see it
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and he's already hurt
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:01 PM - abeer3: right now. just needs to not be hurt in may
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:02 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He doesn't have the same burst or explosiveness
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:02 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and his jumper was awful tonight
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:02 PM - LaVarBallsDad: 3-ball
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:02 PM - abeer3: no. neither does kawhi. he doesn't get by anyone, really.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:02 PM - LaVarBallsDad: but Kawhi has a good mid-range game
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:02 PM - abeer3: awful tonight. will it be awful in the playoffs?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:03 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and his footwork is above average to go along with a 7'3' wingspan
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:03 PM - abeer3: will danny green miss everything in the playoffs?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:03 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He did last year
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:03 PM - LaVarBallsDad: lolol
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:03 PM - abeer3: well then we lose
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:04 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Danny is useless. Dwight was awful tonight too.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:04 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Look, we need another guy; and that guy doesn't have to be great
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:04 PM - abeer3: i'm just not that worried. VERY curious to see how the lakers come out against portland and dallas, though.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:04 PM - abeer3: that guy needs to be a pg not named rondo, tbh
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:05 PM - LaVarBallsDad: he just needs to be better than Rondo; and as Darius Soriano said that guy they get to replace Rondo (hopefully) has enough respect in that locker room to supplant Rondo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:05 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and Rondo wasn't even that bad tonight in all honesty
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:05 PM - abeer3: i don't think rondo can be supplanted, though.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:05 PM - abeer3: he basically has to get hurt
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:05 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He can - but you have to go get a guy like Derrick Rose
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:05 PM - LaVarBallsDad: imo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - abeer3: and again, not sure it matters, because i don't know if a better player is going to come available
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - LaVarBallsDad: never know
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and I think Washington can facilitate us

 

Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - svtzr: A bad game doesn’t make a bad season
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - LaVarBallsDad: as may be a 3rd team if they get something out of it
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - LaVarBallsDad: that's 4 bad games in a row
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:06 PM - svtzr: And a bad performance doesn’t make a bad player or men’s we lose in the playoffs
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:07 PM - LaVarBallsDad: it depends who you're referring too
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:07 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Green was fantastic last regular season
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:07 PM - abeer3: loss to indy, close, minus AD. loss at mil (best record in league, mvp). loss to denver (2nd best record in west, no lebron). close loss to clippers (title favorite).
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:07 PM - abeer3: it was just a rough patch.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:08 PM - LaVarBallsDad: let's see how we close out the month
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:08 PM - LaVarBallsDad: that will say a lot
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:08 PM - abeer3: that's why i said i want to see that portland game. if they get beat there, i start wondering if mojo got lost in some way. the rest of these are easily excusable, imo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:08 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Look, time goes by quickly, the trade deadline is Feb 3rd
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:09 PM - LaVarBallsDad: the buyout deadline is March 3rd
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:09 PM - abeer3: i really don't see how we improve via trade. it's waiver wire, g-league signing, or surprise overseas poach or something.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:09 PM - abeer3: just have nothing to offer
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:09 PM - svtzr: Not sure why anyone is so worried, I expect this team to be a 4th seed and come healthy into the playoffs
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:09 PM - LaVarBallsDad: you're right
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - LaVarBallsDad: unless you're including Kuz and THT
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - abeer3: i expected a 4/5 seed coming into the season, was thrilled with the start, and saw this coming when i saw the schedule
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - svtzr: that Was our original expectations and then we tailed off a ton of wins and everyone adjusted their expectations up and got disappointed at a few losses
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - abeer3: it's hard to build a team in one summer
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - LaVarBallsDad: at that point, it better be a darn good player
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - svtzr: Now you’re going to adjust those expectations down and think we will lose in the 1st or 2nd round and then you’ll get pleasantly surprised when we go on another run
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:10 PM - abeer3: right-and i didn't see the game, but it sounds like kuz played well. too early to give up on him regaining form
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:11 PM - svtzr: And it’s rinse and repeat all season
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:11 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I didn't have any expectations
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:11 PM - abeer3: i'd prefer to be the underdog in the playoffs. some of our competitors are bed wetters
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:11 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I'm a Lakers fan
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:11 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I'm spoiled - and I want to win the championship every season - and if we suck - I want to tank
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:11 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I'm pretty simple
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:12 PM - svtzr: Thats fair, I get it
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:12 PM - abeer3: lol. i just want to see a good, competitive team. we finally have it again. enjoy it. i don't want the last six years ever again.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:12 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Laker Film Room ✔ @LakerFilmRoom Replying to @LakerFilmRoom The Lakers also need to install more plays. I get that they want to play through their superstars (and they should), but they need the system to get guys open too. They'll still beat bad teams but the offense grinds to a
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:13 PM - LaVarBallsDad: halt against good ones
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:13 PM - svtzr: To me, we’re an old vet team - and that means we’re going to try and flip the switch in the playoffs

 

Dec 25, 2019 at 8:13 PM - abeer3: that was some horrible basketball, and it made me strain to imagine people like randle or ball or ingram as stars on good teams...i don't like that me
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:13 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Laker Film Room ✔ @LakerFilmRoom Rondo didn't do much good or bad toward the end of that game. I'm not blaming this loss on him. He's just not very good anymore. That happens. But the mental gymnastics you gotta do to have him in down the stretch as one of your main 5 guys in a big game is astounding.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:13 PM - abeer3: the clippers absolutely stomped dallas's #1 offense. it happens.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:14 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Laker Film Room ✔ @LakerFilmRoom I genuinely hope this loss causes some re-examination of a few things.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:14 PM - abeer3: it's weird that rondo has become a coach's security blanket again. his stretches in dallas and sac were like, the opposite of that.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:14 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I agree
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:15 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Idk, man. I just don't get it with him - if he's playing these types of mins in these types of situations in PO's, we're doomed
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:15 PM - abeer3: but what re-examination? playing rondo? because again, i'm certain that management would like to get more good players instead of our worst ones
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:15 PM - svtzr: I fully expect rondo, Dwight, AB, Lebron to turn it up
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:15 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I think Dwight has been fine
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:16 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I mean - he's on a non-guaranteed deal
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:16 PM - abeer3: i expect AD to find more ways to be effective in our offense. he's got a ton of talent and has produced as a focal point with similar talent around him. that's on the coaches
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:16 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Agree
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:17 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I like Vogel
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:17 PM - LaVarBallsDad: but our offense sucks
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:17 PM - abeer3: that was sort of expected, though, right?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:17 PM - svtzr: Yes but I fully expect these guys to give 100% effort in the playoffs because that’s what matters - Dwight will bring the defence and blocks
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:17 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Yes
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:17 PM - svtzr: Rondo will win us a game, AB will win us a game, Dwight will win us 2
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - svtzr: Lebron will win us 6 and AD 4
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Although, Vogel said he spent a lot of time with Stevens
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - abeer3: he's delivered on defense--the whole team is playing on that end most nights
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I don't agree with Rondo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He's done
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and every eye test and metric show that
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Although, he had a good stretch in Utah and Denver
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: then sh** the bed
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:19 PM - abeer3: well, i don't question him being able to deliver a vintage playoff game--i just wonder how many he could cost you in the process
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: or what it could cost you
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: ?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: A chip
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Mike Trudell ✔ @LakersReporter Anthony Davis said the Lakers gave the game away down the stretch, that being up 12 at halftime, and then 7 midway through the fourth, you have to close it out. Missed shots, turnovers were part of it, but putting LAC at the line with reach-in fouls was a killer.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:20 PM - svtzr: none Of our role players will cost us a championship
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:20 PM - abeer3: yeah...though i'm not sure anything that big can be laid at rondo's feet. our title hopes rest on AD and lebron. if they're outstanding, we're very tough to beat.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:20 PM - svtzr: Only guys who can do that is Lebron and AD

 

Dec 25, 2019 at 8:20 PM - abeer3: i'm really glad i chose not to watch this one...sounds awful
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - svtzr: If you got AD averaging 30 and 12 with 3 blocks and Lebron doing 25/10/10 - good luck to anyone against us
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - LaVarBallsDad: If Rondo is the main playmaker behind LBJ getting getting 20-25 mins, we're not winning a chip
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - abeer3: yep
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - svtzr: Lebron will play 36+ mins, probably close to 40 mins
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - LaVarBallsDad: that's not happening
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - abeer3: if we're defending and our two stars are on, i really like our chances
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - LaVarBallsDad: LeBron is going to go 36 mins and go FULL LEBRON
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - svtzr: And that will be 2 mins off each quarter
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - LaVarBallsDad: on a 35 year old Body?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - svtzr: Yes on a 35 year old body just like MJ did
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:21 PM - LaVarBallsDad: when he already has a back issue?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: lolol and more miles
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Yeah, good luck with that
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - svtzr: You’ve got one of the best players of all time that is the most athletic capable body the NBA has ever seen
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - svtzr: You ride him until it breaks
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I agree
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: well, he will
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - svtzr: And until it does you remain optimistic
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I will remain optimistic
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: with another ball handler
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:22 PM - svtzr: We don’t have any other options so stop with the 35 year old stuff
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - abeer3: yeah, i don't see another choice, really
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: that isn't Rondo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He's 35
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: actually, 34
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - svtzr: You got the best athlete the NBA has seen, it ain’t apples to apples man
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Well, I do see other choices
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - abeer3: the other ballhandler is just to help in the regular season, tbh--you don't want the ball in anyone else's hands in big moments, period
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: so when LeBron sits
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and goes to the bench, and the offense goes stagnant
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - abeer3: he doesn't sit much
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: what's the excuse?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - abeer3: and yes, pretty much
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He sat tonight and our offense sucked

 

Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - KobeJeterKaep: 4 games in a row. Exactly what I feared when I saw the schedule. Pathetic.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I guess Rondo can run the show
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - svtzr: The only thing you’ve said is try get Derrick rose
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Sure, Derrick Rose, Jeff Teague
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - abeer3: he'd sit less. sounds like 2 minutes less sucking, and we win
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:24 PM - LaVarBallsDad: but as abeer points out, and I'll gladly concede, we have no assets
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:25 PM - svtzr: You’ve already got a Rose like player in Kuzma
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:25 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I do?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:25 PM - LaVarBallsDad: wtf?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:25 PM - abeer3: rose isn't much of a passer, tbh.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:25 PM - svtzr: You give rose the ball to score buckets these days
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:25 PM - svtzr: He isn’t going to run your offence
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:26 PM - abeer3: it's how miami shut his team down during his heyday
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He's going to attack the pick in roll in specific situation where defenses have to RESPECT and honor HIM
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:26 PM - abeer3: he's a sg, like most of our guards
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and can create for HIMSELF unlike most of our guards
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: So, when Rondo decides to make a bad read off the Spain Pick in Roll time after time again, that isn't an issue to you guys?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: reads*
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:27 PM - abeer3: he can create shots i don't really want. but yeah, i'd take him over rondo, cook, or daniels. none of the others, though
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:27 PM - abeer3: it's an issue. rose will do that, too, though.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:27 PM - LaVarBallsDad: there was a possession Rondo dribbled 22 times in 1 possession
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:27 PM - abeer3: i don't like rondo, either, and i'm not here to defend him. i'm here to argue that the pickings are slim.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:28 PM - LaVarBallsDad: That I agree with
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:28 PM - LaVarBallsDad: that those pickings can possibly be better than Rondo
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:28 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and like I said, he isn't the reason he lost tonight
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:28 PM - LaVarBallsDad: we lost
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:29 PM - svtzr: Rondo isn’t the reason we lost
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:29 PM - svtzr: We lost because AD and Lebron couldn’t take over until he final 5 mins
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:29 PM - svtzr: Rondo won’t be the reason we lose in the playoffs either
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:30 PM - abeer3: AD only had 6 boards in 39 minutes--that's weird
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:30 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Yeah, I agree; he didn't help, but he's not the reason
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:31 PM - LaVarBallsDad: we have the MLE next year -
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:31 PM - LaVarBallsDad: maybe we can use our first
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:31 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I'm not trading Kuz
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:31 PM - LaVarBallsDad: or THT

 

Dec 25, 2019 at 8:31 PM - abeer3: we have the MLE and won't be shackled by the weird NT clauses. we should be in good position. we also have our draft pick, which can be moved around the draft to add a player if need be as well
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:32 PM - LaVarBallsDad: that's what I'm thinking
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:32 PM - LaVarBallsDad: this year - I'm open to moving Cook and Daniels
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:32 PM - abeer3: in the meantime, we have a decent shot at winning it all anyway. nobody wants to see us in the playoffs. trust me.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:32 PM - LaVarBallsDad: What screwed is - what really screwed us
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:33 PM - LaVarBallsDad: is Cousins going down
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:33 PM - LaVarBallsDad: That HURT
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:33 PM - svtzr: Cooks and Daniels will get you a bag of potato chips in return
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:33 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Yeah, I know
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:34 PM - abeer3: yeah, that hurt. also the pg market being absolute crap this summer hurt, too. i was worried about that one the whole time. was hoping corey joseph would come for avery bradley money, then the kings were like, hold my beer
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:34 PM - LaVarBallsDad: lmao
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:34 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Utah got JC for Exum and a couple of 2nds
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:35 PM - abeer3: yeah, they had salary to move. and clarkson isn't exactly a proven winner. we'll see how that works. he's better than exum, for sure, though.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:35 PM - abeer3: our salary is tied up in guys we actually need to keep--which is a good thing most of the time. but this is how operating under the cap hurts you.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:36 PM - abeer3: if we'd been operating over the cap, we'd still have AD, but we'd have some larger salaries to move around.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:37 PM - abeer3: it's why i was actually against buying out deng. once he was expiring, that's what you attach a couple second rounders to in order to get an expensive-but-average player
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:37 PM - abeer3: dallas has courtney lee's 11m expiring just sitting around in case they need some salary to match for a piece to put them over the top
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:37 PM - svtzr: Hahaha old deng
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:38 PM - abeer3: btw, either seth curry or dorrell wright would be really nice here. both were had at mle money (though wright was s&t)
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:38 PM - svtzr: Abeer you didn’t miss much today - we played the best perimeter based team in the league to a standstill
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:39 PM - svtzr: Could of gone either way
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:39 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and I'm not one hoping for Iggy
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:39 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He can't shoot
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:39 PM - LaVarBallsDad: and he's older
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - svtzr: I’d love Iggy, just because he is another body we can throw at PG or Kawhi for 20 mins a game
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - LaVarBallsDad: If he was more realistic, I'd be happy
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - LaVarBallsDad: but
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Memphis
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - LaVarBallsDad: lol
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - svtzr: That’s where the game will be won, can we slow them down enough that they aren’t Scoring efficiently
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:40 PM - svtzr: Or will they force AD and Lebron not to execute down the stretch
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:41 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Is that Dallas game in LA
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:41 PM - LaVarBallsDad: ?

Dec 25, 2019 at 8:42 PM - abeer3: i'm still going to be surprised if memphis actually gets anything for iggy. we have no choice but to wait that out--but i'd probably advise doing so even if we did have a choice
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:42 PM - abeer3: dallas has been better on the road than at home
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:42 PM - abeer3: weirdly
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:43 PM - LaVarBallsDad: anybody know here darren Collison lives?
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:43 PM - LaVarBallsDad: where
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:43 PM - abeer3: but no excuses there. assuming lebron and AD are playing, both portland and dallas need to be wins--particularly coming of a 4-game losing streak. gotta right the ship
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:44 PM - abeer3: alright, i gotta get to bed. the tiny children wait for no man come sunrise.
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:44 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Later, g'night, and I hope you had a good Christmas
Dec 25, 2019 at 8:45 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I'm going to be livid all night

 

Dec 28, 2019 6:33 PM - RonStu: "Don't pass Kuz the ball after that tweet he posted"
Dec 28, 2019 6:48 PM - RonStu: Kyle carries purse to arena, about to have a bad game.
Dec 28, 2019 6:52 PM - RonStu: http://nbastreams.xyz/live/13/
Dec 28, 2019 6:59 PM - KuzmoBall17: Kuz wearing glasses and carries big woman purse oy vey
Dec 28, 2019 7:01 PM - KuzmoBall17: And Doncic already with triple- double in 3 quarter
Dec 28, 2019 7:02 PM - nzahir: Big game tonight
Dec 28, 2019 7:02 PM - nzahir: They are going big for us
Dec 28, 2019 7:02 PM - nzahir: Dame CJ Melo Skal and Hassan
Dec 28, 2019 7:02 PM - nzahir: Kent off the bench
Dec 28, 2019 7:02 PM - nzahir: We should win this handily
Dec 28, 2019 7:04 PM - Cookie: We need to stop the skid tonight
Dec 28, 2019 7:06 PM - nzahir: GOD DAMMIT WHY IS AVERY STARTING
Dec 28, 2019 7:06 PM - KuzmoBall17: rondo playoff mode
Dec 28, 2019 7:08 PM - Sentient Meat: DLO 32 in the 3rd quarter... Ingram 25 in a win... Agonizing to see our kids in the top performer column on the ESPN highlights
Dec 28, 2019 7:09 PM - KuzmoBall17: :Kuzmawhoknew:
Dec 28, 2019 7:09 PM - nzahir: And how much are they winning again?
Dec 28, 2019 7:10 PM - nzahir: BI is a good player, but he was necessary to move
Dec 28, 2019 7:10 PM - Sentient Meat: Julius 24 and 12... smh
Dec 28, 2019 7:10 PM - nzahir: Caruso has been better than Lonzo
Dec 28, 2019 7:11 PM - Cookie: I could have just sworn they had AB name in the starting line up but it was KCP picture
Dec 28, 2019 7:12 PM - KuzmoBall17: Melo will score 60 tonight
Dec 28, 2019 7:12 PM - Kenzo: SM, you need to move on man. Eithar that... or start following other teams (with our former players on it).
Dec 28, 2019 7:13 PM - Cookie: Only way AB scores is by a goldtend
Dec 28, 2019 7:13 PM - Sentient Meat: I watched every game of our seven year drought... I earned some right to complain
Dec 28, 2019 7:13 PM - Kenzo: That's not complaining.
Dec 28, 2019 7:14 PM - nzahir: SMH danny
Dec 28, 2019 7:14 PM - Kenzo: AD scores 40, well he did ok.
Dec 28, 2019 7:14 PM - Kenzo: OMG, BI made 7 3's. Jules got a double double...
Dec 28, 2019 7:14 PM - Sentient Meat: I just glanced at the ESPN scorecard... and there their names were... taunting me
Dec 28, 2019 7:15 PM - abeer3: Look for them at the bottom of the standings
Dec 28, 2019 7:15 PM - abeer3: Taunting you
Dec 28, 2019 7:15 PM - Cookie: Their record certainly doesn’t taunt me.
Dec 28, 2019 7:17 PM - Cookie: What is it with our 3 point shooters
Dec 28, 2019 7:17 PM - Sentient Meat: lol... I can't argue against that... but Julius 28 and 15 rebounds... Ingram 24 with a +20... DLO with 32 after three quarters...
Dec 28, 2019 7:17 PM - abeer3: Maybe magic was right—everyone forgets how to shoot here anyway

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 7:17 PM - Cookie: Ugly LeBron shoes
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:18 PM - nzahir: LMFAO REFS
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:18 PM - nzahir: Lebron cant even get fts
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:18 PM - Kenzo: Portland always gave us fit. This is a L
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:18 PM - Cookie: I don’t care how good AB defense is, guy can’t shoot to save his life.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:19 PM - Sentient Meat: If this unit can't hold them to below a 30 point quarter pace... Vogel needs to put the shooters in immediately.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:19 PM - nzahir: Is AD dumb?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:20 PM - nzahir: What kind of pass is that
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:20 PM - Sentient Meat: If they can't play defense, they serve no purpose
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:20 PM - nzahir: GUy is 6-10 and cant eve pass out properly
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:20 PM - Cookie: Sit AB
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:20 PM - Sentient Meat: Yes
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:20 PM - abeer3: Saturday night road game in Portland has always been a loss
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:21 PM - Sentient Meat: I still think we will win, but I hate this lineup
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:21 PM - Cookie: Sit both AB and Green. I’m over them tonight
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:21 PM - nzahir: Lmfao Green is pathetic rn
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:22 PM - Sentient Meat: Green will come good... but AB is overrated
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:22 PM - Cookie: WTH is this
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:22 PM - Kenzo: Trade greens a**
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:23 PM - nzahir: Danny is such an inconsistent shooter
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:23 PM - Kenzo: 6 games losing streak
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:24 PM - Kenzo: Thank god we're playing the Suns soon..
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:24 PM - nzahir: Mavs tomorrow...
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:24 PM - nzahir: If Lavine or Gallo are available, we have to look into it
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:24 PM - Kenzo: That's why i said "6 games L streak"
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:25 PM - Sentient Meat: That's why we must win tonight
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:25 PM - Sentient Meat: Although I'd take a six game losing streak if it made the front office spring into action
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:26 PM - Sentient Meat: Good Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:26 PM - nzahir: Smh nice Frank, give them a point
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:27 PM - Cookie: Why is AB still in?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:27 PM - nzahir: Lol
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:27 PM - Cookie: KCP backs off the shooter. Great D lol
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:28 PM - Sentient Meat: Lockdown defender AB holding Dame to a 48 point pace
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:29 PM - Cookie: How can you kick someone when your feet never move?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:29 PM - nzahir: His iso d is actually pretty good, his ppp is elite according to nba.com

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 7:29 PM - Kenzo: Dame is one of the toughest guys to guard. Plus he loves to play the lakers
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:29 PM - Kenzo: Refs are garbage
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:29 PM - Sentient Meat: Yeah I've seen him play decent defense... but tonight isn't one of those nights
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:30 PM - Sentient Meat: Kuz D is getting better
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:30 PM - Sentient Meat: This should be the starting lineup instead
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:31 PM - Cookie: Nice Lebron
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:31 PM - Cookie: Good D by Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:32 PM - nzahir: Problem is who guards wings with this lineup?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:32 PM - nzahir: If we started it
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:32 PM - nzahir: Kuzma upping his value in case there must be a move
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:33 PM - KuzmoBall17:
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:34 PM - Cookie: Stop missing free throws
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:35 PM - Juronimo: What's good Laker fam
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:35 PM - Juronimo: I've missed the last 4 games
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:36 PM - Sentient Meat: Maybe you will break the curse then
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:36 PM - Juronimo: Hopefully
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:36 PM - Sentient Meat: Old Kuzma coming back
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:37 PM - KuzmoBall17: Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:37 PM - Sentient Meat: Kuzma has the Ingram lips tonight
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:37 PM - karacha: kuzma is back
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:37 PM - nzahir: Wow kuzma
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:37 PM - nzahir: Finally finishing these things
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:37 PM - Cookie: Nice run by Kuz.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:38 PM - KuzmoBall17: He was wearing glasses
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:38 PM - karacha: kuz for 30+
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:39 PM - Sentient Meat: Man we could have had Simons too
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:39 PM - Cookie: Rondo and his s***ty D
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:39 PM - nzahir: Dammit alex
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:39 PM - Kenzo: We need some damn D
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:39 PM - nzahir: U guys see rondo not being able to shoot open 3s?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:40 PM - Cookie: I see Rondo being useless lately
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - Sentient Meat: lol
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - Kenzo: I pretend Franklin's not even here...
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - Cookie: Too soon Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - Juronimo: Franklin?

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - Sentient Meat: When you are hot you are hot
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - karacha: kuz hits the buzzer beater again lol
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - nzahir: damm
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:41 PM - karacha: except the buzzer beat him this time. nice shot though
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:42 PM - Kenzo: Kuz feelin it
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:42 PM - Cookie: I was talking about Kuzma’s shot before the buzzer shot.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:43 PM - Sentient Meat: This means we'll end up trading Kuzma for Ish Smith... then he'll be in the ESPN scorecard key players with DLo, BI, and Randle
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:43 PM - Juronimo: Has Danny Green remembered how to shoot? He's already bricked 2 3s
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:44 PM - nzahir: 3 3s*
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:45 PM - Kenzo: Great D
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:45 PM - Juronimo: I guess that's a no then
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:45 PM - nzahir: SMHHHHHH
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:45 PM - Kenzo: The hell happened to us
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:45 PM - Cookie: Rondo actually made a shot
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:45 PM - nzahir: Open shot after turning down multiple open 3s
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - nzahir: this is f***ing insane
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - Kenzo: That was a moving screen
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - Cookie: Rondo’s arms look bigger. He might be getting some Lebron juice.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - RonStu: we should guard the 3 pt line I think
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - KuzmoBall17: Rondo made 2 shots in a row.Leave him alone for another 10 ganes
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - KuzmoBall17: 3 in a riw
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - nzahir: Dwight is getting cooked
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:46 PM - Kenzo: All star game ftw
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:47 PM - Sentient Meat: Rondo is still shooting 3 pointers at 40%. It's AB and AD who are having trouble from range
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:47 PM - Juronimo: Well if they're on LeBron juice they need to buy Lamar Odom's fake schlong
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:48 PM - Cookie: AD needs more then 2 shots in 12 minutes
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:50 PM - Sentient Meat: Damn Kuzma's on fire
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:50 PM - Weezy: Kuz wow
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:50 PM - Juronimo: Sup Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:50 PM - Weezy: What vision from LeBron too
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:51 PM - Sentient Meat: Ugh... LBJ showing his age there
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:51 PM - Juronimo: Crap
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:51 PM - Weezy: Uh oh
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:51 PM - Cookie: D@mn Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:51 PM - Kenzo: Hell YES

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 7:51 PM - Cookie: s***
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:52 PM - Weezy: LeBron looms like he should be resting
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:52 PM - Weezy: His lift just gave out on that drive
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:52 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Groin is effecting his hops?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:52 PM - RonStu: lol, DNP old
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:52 PM - RonStu: no foul
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:52 PM - Sentient Meat: LBJ's still great but he's just getting old... he should have pulled out of the drive and regrouped
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - Kenzo: Eff me. He's strong, he's fast but the lift is gone.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - nzahir: f***
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - Kenzo: Groin?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - KuzmoBall17: Elbow now
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - RonStu: I'm glad it was challenged. That's a BS call, and I hate BS calls against anyone.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - Kenzo: Freakin groin
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - Sentient Meat: He should just adjust and play like Magic. He could last five more years playing like that
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - KuzmoBall17: Groin,no juice ,elbow
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - nzahir: I grew up watching Lebron since 04-05 my first year watching
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:53 PM - nzahir: Crazy to see the vertical going down
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:54 PM - Kenzo: He was doing some crazy dunks at the start of the season
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:54 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Bron says he feels better but I guess he did test it out when he didn't try to sprint and dunk before the game
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:54 PM - RonStu: The season is a grind,
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:54 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Blazers lost the challenge
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - Sentient Meat: Those free throws...
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Bron got tripped
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - RonStu: I didn't see it
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - karacha: bron can jump and dunk just fine when fully healthy
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - nzahir: Still losing some lift
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - nzahir: Legs bumped
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - Juronimo: The free throws looked weird I'm concerned
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - Weezy: Stop hating RonStu damn.
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - RonStu: Kuzma giving him advice at the line. "My trainer can help you bro"
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:55 PM - Kenzo: That's what im thinking. Groin "thing"
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: Rondo again damn
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: Freaking 9 points
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:56 PM - Kenzo: I love Dwight
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - RonStu: Carmelo has no vision to pass pretty much

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - Weezy: Bad possession
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - Sentient Meat: Caruso needs to not be so afraid to shoot. He always overpasses
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - Weezy: Melo does one thing, shoot. Can’t pass, and can’t defend to save his life
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - karacha: wow, is anyone looking at the clock?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - Weezy: Kuuuuuuuuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:57 PM - Sentient Meat: Kuz is unconscious
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:58 PM - RonStu: I like the passing, and lebron was on the floor. That's good even if it was too much
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:58 PM - Juronimo: Ah man wtf I thought that was good D by dawite
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:59 PM - Kenzo: Leave Kuz on the floor. Wtf Frank?
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:59 PM - Sentient Meat: Good Alex!
Dec 28, 2019 at 7:59 PM - RonStu: looked pretty solid D, but the NBA protects their starts lolz
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:00 PM - Juronimo: Geah MC Eiht sez geah
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:00 PM - RonStu: I like Caruso's effort on Lillard
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:00 PM - Cookie: Noice

 

Dec 28, 2019 8:01 PM - Sentient Meat: 12 points against Bradley... 2 points against Caruso
Dec 28, 2019 8:01 PM - RonStu: blocked by the rim lol
Dec 28, 2019 8:01 PM - Kenzo: Finally. All their pickks look like that
Dec 28, 2019 8:02 PM - RonStu: Scented Meat, where did you get that info?
Dec 28, 2019 8:02 PM - Cookie: What is up with AD handles?
Dec 28, 2019 8:03 PM - Weezy: God damn Melo is a whiner. So glad he’s not on this team
Dec 28, 2019 8:03 PM - Sentient Meat: Wasn't scientific Ron, but he scored 12 when AB was in... so I just attributed the other 2 points to during Caruso's time
Dec 28, 2019 8:03 PM - karacha: well, if Kuz gains some confidence from this and continues scoring well, we are going to start another nice winning streak
Dec 28, 2019 8:03 PM - Cookie: Simmons just pushed Bald Eagle out of the way
Dec 28, 2019 8:03 PM - RonStu: Today this would actually be the 1st round matchup in the playoffs.
Dec 28, 2019 8:04 PM - RonStu: Ahh, I thought there might have been a site that had real time stats like that. That would be pretty impressive
Dec 28, 2019 8:04 PM - Cookie: No help
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - Sentient Meat: They probably do, but if you watch the game you can notice things like that. It kind of stuck out when AB got torched in the first
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - nzahir: JESUS AVERY
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - nzahir: ARE YOU A MORON
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - nzahir: Should get taken out rn and socked in the face
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - karacha: i hear caps will make you feel better
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - Juronimo: Lame
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - Cookie: That’s a b******* call
Dec 28, 2019 8:05 PM - nzahir: Why press like that when we are in bonus
Dec 28, 2019 8:06 PM - Kenzo: For real though. Bradley, green, cook and daniels are useless
Dec 28, 2019 8:06 PM - Weezy: Here comes the free throw parade to make this interesting for half 2
Dec 28, 2019 8:06 PM - Cookie: How was that not a goaltend. His hand went through the neck
Dec 28, 2019 8:06 PM - Kenzo: The last 2 need to play more though
Dec 28, 2019 8:06 PM - Cookie: Net
Dec 28, 2019 8:06 PM - Weezy: Damn Caruso is smooth
Dec 28, 2019 8:07 PM - nzahir: Avery plays good man d...but fouls too much and awful 3 pt shooter
Dec 28, 2019 8:07 PM - Cookie: AD needs to make more of an impact on this game.
Dec 28, 2019 8:07 PM - Kenzo: We should've used a challenge on that "block"
Dec 28, 2019 8:07 PM - Juronimo: When did Whiteside become a blazer thought he was a cHeat
Dec 28, 2019 8:07 PM - nzahir: His passing is poor for a "superstar"
Dec 28, 2019 8:09 PM - Weezy: Bradley is one guy I’m ok shopping at this point
Dec 28, 2019 8:09 PM - Sentient Meat: I don't get why AB was smiling there
Dec 28, 2019 8:09 PM - Weezy: He’s not the same guy since the injury
Dec 28, 2019 8:09 PM - nzahir: LMFAOOO

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 8:09 PM - Sentient Meat: Is AD hurt? Because he doesn't look like himself recently
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:10 PM - Juronimo: Another Danny Green brick shocker
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:10 PM - Weezy: I mean AD is playing hurt, yes
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:10 PM - Sentient Meat: thanks
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:11 PM - Kenzo: Sit AD's butt and let him heal for a week or so
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:11 PM - nzahir: Funny the lead went back again with avery
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:11 PM - Sentient Meat: It's no accident
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:12 PM - nzahir: His d on those pick and rolls was bad
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:12 PM - karacha: both our stars look banged up. still, this should be a win
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:12 PM - Weezy: Holy s*** Kuz
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:12 PM - Kenzo: That's a foul nowadays?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:12 PM - karacha: kuz with a quick trigger
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:12 PM - Cookie: AB will get us a bag of chips and we will have to give the team a second round pick also.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Kuzz 20 pts already
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:13 PM - Sentient Meat: Smh... we could have had Simons
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:13 PM - Cookie: We fall asleep on D
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:13 PM - LALakersFan4Life: lol Melo
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:13 PM - Weezy: Well, I was thinking package AB with maybe Cook or Daniels
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: No basket
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:14 PM - Cookie: No basket
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:14 PM - karacha: ok half. we should win this and maybe that puts us back on track
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:14 PM - Kenzo: Hahahahahaha
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:14 PM - Weezy: But he could still turn it around, he hasn’t been back from injury THAT long after all
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:14 PM - Juronimo: Ojala que si
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:15 PM - Cookie: I’d love for AB to turn it around but I’m losing hope by the game.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:15 PM - Sentient Meat: I think we will have trouble with Dallas but maybe after that we'll win four games
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:16 PM - KuzmoBall17: Is kawhi injured ? 1 for 7 and 2 points
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:17 PM - The Showtime Mamba: It's Kawhai he does that. He will probably get 10 more points before the end of the game. He is in game load managing.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:17 PM - OX1947: Vogel needs to put KCP in the starting lineup. Kuzma is starting to get healthy, if not for him tonight, this game would be Portland ahead
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:17 PM - Sentient Meat: I'd rather see KCP than Bradley
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:17 PM - Weezy: Pretty sure kawhi’s issue is career-long. He paces himself and turns it on at the end of games from what I’ve seen
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:18 PM - The Showtime Mamba: KCP likes being a starter and Kuzma is a great spark off the bench, I agree. Bradley is just on again off again, except without the on again.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: LeBron feels magically better
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: And Rondo can magically shoot
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Lol

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 8:19 PM - Sentient Meat: If his three ball isn't falling he's a complete liability.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:19 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I was disappointed with his, I didn't play well so I have groin troubles narrative. Maybe the pain was him growing a pair.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Kuz get that trade value up
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:20 PM - Sentient Meat: If Kuz can play like this I don't want to trade him
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:20 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Let Kuz stay.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:20 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Meh. Depends who it's for, but I agree
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:21 PM - Sentient Meat: Well the problem is I don't want to pay him a large amount of money... but if we can get him for a cheap extension, I'd keep him
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:21 PM - OX1947: You don't trade Kuzma when he's dropping it like tonight. That's how he makes the difference in big games. I wish Vogel had played him in the 4th against the clips
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:21 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I guess it never hurts to have players that other teams want, except that the front office could always potentially might mighty Muscala them.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:21 PM - nzahir: Should have, no clue what he was thinking
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:21 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Again, all depends on return.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:22 PM - nzahir: Problem is we need to include Danny as well in most deals for larger names
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Zubac for Muscala - makes me sick
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:22 PM - nzahir: Like Lavine or Gallo
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:22 PM - Sentient Meat: Svi for Bullock makes me sick
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Another Magic special
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:23 PM - The Showtime Mamba: The whole Svi for Bullock and Zubac for Muscala was wasteful and they soon disappeared from our team.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:24 PM - LaVarBallsDad: How much is Zu making?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:24 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I would not count Muscala as a Laker. Just a spare tire or maybe a flat tire.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:24 PM - Sentient Meat: It was Knicks like in its stupidity and pointlessness
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:24 PM - nzahir: 8-9M I think
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:24 PM - LaVarBallsDad: 6.5
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:25 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Rounding it up
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:25 PM - Sentient Meat: We could have traded him for a pick instead of a washed up journeyman
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:25 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Not a bad deal. Yeah, signed Zu. That's an asset
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: We would have had his salary to include in deals
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Aww, well
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:27 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Russell had 30 in the first half tonight?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:27 PM - LaVarBallsDad: But I see the got blown out.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:27 PM - LaVarBallsDad: They
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:31 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I tell you, I have watched a few GSW matches. DLO is a scoring threat, a nice passer when he wants, a good three point shooter.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:31 PM - Juronimo: Omg Danny green made a 3!
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:32 PM - The Showtime Mamba: And he comes alive in the fourth. Old news for a few I am sure, but he sure would be nice if we had him with us.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:32 PM - The Showtime Mamba: AD is so good when he is spoon fed.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:33 PM - Weezy: Yeah, but these are ifs. IF Russ never leaves LA does he work harder and mature and become what he has? IF Svi is still here can be shoot threes or does he suck like almost all Lakers do at it, because like the spotlight is too big?

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 8:33 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Oh my gosh, Bradley missed a 3.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:34 PM - Weezy: Rookies get no room to grow here, they at least in the last regime got no real development, just thrown out there and see what happens
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:34 PM - Sentient Meat: Svi was the number one college 3 point shooter at Kansas who had the 2nd hardest strength of schedule and was in the tournament
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:34 PM - LALakersFan4Life: How's Svi doing this year with the Pistons?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:35 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I think DLO certainly had a bug (or a Byron) up his butt when here and I feel he threw away his chance to stay.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:35 PM - Weezy: I know Svi can shoot, I just don’t think he could here. He didn’t get a shot, and we didn’t fivr
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:35 PM - Sentient Meat: He's doing okay... they let him start two or three times... he's shooting over 40% from three
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:35 PM - The Showtime Mamba: You can't be here in spite of yourself and it is not an organisations to put out fires if you are burning bridges.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:35 PM - Weezy: *give him time. Now he’s in Detroit, a team no on cares about so of course the pressure is less
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:35 PM - Juronimo: D lo had a Boron and a video camera here
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:36 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I think the whole DLO coming five minutes before practice was a symbol of this. If coach wants you to come earlier do so.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:36 PM - Cookie: Stop with the fouls
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:36 PM - Sentient Meat: Weezy if that theory were true then the league leaders would always be from scrub teams
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:36 PM - Weezy: Even Ingram looks more comfortable where he is out of the LA spotlight and away from the gravity field of LeBron
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - The Showtime Mamba: And what was with all these Lakers not wanting to come early and shoot with kobe. I mean who here would give up on that.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - Weezy: It’s not a theory, I’m just saying I don’t think Svi was built to be a Laker.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - Weezy: It’s a different thing to be a Laker
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - Sentient Meat: But my counterpoint is that he was fine at Kansas... a blue chip program
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - Juronimo: Ludabrow 3
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - Cookie: Already in penalty
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:37 PM - Weezy: College 3
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - Weezy: Is like an nba layup
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Kansas not the same as being a Laker. I believe that you can play better in smaller markets.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - Sentient Meat: He's shooting 43% from three last time I looked
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - Cookie: Nothing but whistles
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - Sentient Meat: I agree it's easier out of the LA spotlight... but those guys were still good players
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - Juronimo: College defenses don't rotate like NBA defenses
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Kevin Love was a star in Minnesota, he would not have been that level in LA>
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:38 PM - Kenzo: Why are cook and daniels glued to the bench?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:39 PM - Kenzo: Thsy cant be worse than green or ab
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:39 PM - Sentient Meat: He got us to the NCAA Final four at UCLA when he was a kid
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:39 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Cook and Daniels keep singing one day at a time whenever Vogel comes into the lockeroom so have been censured.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:39 PM - Weezy: That’s not a good argument, plenty of college stars or role players on great college teams wash out
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:40 PM - Sentient Meat: Vogel really needs to cultivate his shooters... or we won't get far in the playoffs
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:40 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Adam Morrison.

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 8:40 PM - Cookie: AB should be load managed. I don’t care if he’s hurt or not.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:40 PM - OX1947: Green was open on a few of those, lebron not feeding him
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:40 PM - Sentient Meat: My point was that I don't think Love was afraid of a big market
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: My fault I was talking about Svi
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I mean that whole mental illness (anxiety) messes with the argument, but I would say he was not the same player in Cleveland with Bron.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - Sentient Meat: Yeah same applies to Svi who played at Kansas
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: Not Love. Though I agree he wouldn’t have been a great Laker
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - Cookie: Love was a stat padder
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Now he is playing in Cleveland and seems like a good contibuter.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - Juronimo: Ed O'Bannon won a NCAA championship and did nothing in the NBA, Christian Laettner was hit garbage in the NBA, NBA !== college
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:41 PM - Sentient Meat: He choked when he was here... but I think he will be a good rotation player if not a starter
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:42 PM - Sentient Meat: Neither of those two led the NCAA in three point shooting during an era where 3 pt shooting is crucial
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:42 PM - Cookie: Sit AB, bring in Kuz.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:42 PM - The Showtime Mamba: We had the dark days of Melo, LMA, Kevin Love, Old attitude Howard. We had dodged some bullets there.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - Cookie: Our starters are s*** tonight
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - Sentient Meat: Freaking AB thinks he's Lillard Jr
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - Juronimo: Well what about that guy who did nothing in the NBA but is tearing up China
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - Juronimo: Can't think of his name
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - Sentient Meat: We could use him right now... at least he can penetrate and draw fouls
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - Cookie: Sit AB NOW
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:43 PM - The Showtime Mamba: My goodness that whole sequence is systematic of what is wrong with AB. How many times can he give up on shooting in a play?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:44 PM - Kenzo: Pathetic
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:44 PM - Kenzo: Clippers game all over again
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:44 PM - Juronimo: AB wtf
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:44 PM - Cookie: This is terrible
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:45 PM - Kenzo: Vogel is starting to piss me off...
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:45 PM - OX1947: Vogel is starting to screw up these games with his lack of going with what works
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:45 PM - Sentient Meat: He's sticking with vets... probably for morale but he needs to bench them when it's not working
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:47 PM - Weezy: F***
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:47 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Feels like a loss.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:47 PM - Juronimo: It goes from bad to worse
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:47 PM - Cookie: Davis needs to sit also. He’s doing nothing out there
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:47 PM - Weezy: AD got fouled
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - nzahir: OMG
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - KuzmoBall17: Are we talking about playoffs

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - Kenzo: That's a f***ing foul
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - KuzmoBall17:
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - KuzmoBall17:
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - nzahir: AD been meh as of late
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - nzahir: Vogel is a joke
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:48 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Davis was fouled
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:49 PM - nzahir: Stop playing Avery
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:49 PM - Cookie: Definitely a foul
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:49 PM - Cookie: 11-0 run. Get your head out of your a****.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:50 PM - nzahir: Refs suck a**
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:50 PM - Cookie: No foul?
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:50 PM - Kenzo: 2 airballs in a row. L
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:50 PM - nzahir: Kuzma got fouled
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:51 PM - Kenzo: I've seen it the previous game
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:51 PM - Cookie: Nice KCP
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:53 PM - Cookie: Damian now Harden lite
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:54 PM - Cookie: I guess we can’t breath on them.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:55 PM - Kenzo: This is unwatchable
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:55 PM - Kenzo: And NBA wonders why the tv ratings are down
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:55 PM - Cookie: How is that not a foul on Portland
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:56 PM - Weezy: What defense by AD on that lob
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: Who cares about tv ratings ,but every star getting Harden treatment in Lakers game
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:56 PM - Weezy: Gee, do you Rondo got fouled
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:56 PM - Weezy:
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:57 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Gotta love Rondo.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:57 PM - Juronimo: I'm getting used to Rondo, love? I still have PTSD over 2008
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:58 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Kuzma is playing hard and not just in the point scoring department tonight.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:58 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Rondo shooting 71% from the free throw line this year?!
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:58 PM - Juronimo: Ooohh!!!!11
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:58 PM - Weezy: Ohhhhhhh
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:59 PM - Weezy: Rondo ownage
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:59 PM - The Showtime Mamba: If Kobe liked Rondo that is good enough for me.
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:59 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Rondo likes playing against the Blazers
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:59 PM - LALakersFan4Life: He was doing damage against the Blazers last year too
Dec 28, 2019 at 8:59 PM - Weezy: Who the hell is simons

 

Dec 28, 2019 at 8:59 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Interesting LALakersFan4life. I did not remember that.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:00 PM - Weezy: Wow hahaha
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:00 PM - Juronimo: OMG!#!#!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:00 PM - Kenzo: Focused Rondo is a decent player
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:00 PM - The Showtime Mamba: KCP 3 is money. Just not the currency that works at all stadiums.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:00 PM - Cookie: Nice end to the quarter
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:00 PM - Sentient Meat: I want you guys to remember this when the board is trashing Rondo in a few days.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - Cookie: Lol Showtime
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - OX1947: All that and they're up 8?
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - KuzmoBall17: Playoff rondo
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - RonStu: he jabbed CP3's grill, so he'll always get a pass from me
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - OX1947: Most bipolar game ever
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - LALakersFan4Life: We're getting Playoff Rondo tonight
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - Cookie: Can we trash AB or is he off your list too?
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:01 PM - RonStu:
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:02 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Rondo can contribute, and he is a big game player. I would have liked to have seen those Rick Carlisle conversations though he was being an a** then.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:02 PM - RonStu: where's my haters?
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:02 PM - OX1947: Kobe liked Rondo because Rondo is certifiably nuts.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:02 PM - RonStu: he still makes crap passes on the regular. ,and that's inexplicable
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:03 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Just like with Lamar and Carlisle. For a good coach he seems to have had feuds. Not as bad as the all time leader though George Karl.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:03 PM - Sentient Meat: Cookie I think AB is okay... but overrated by most Laker forums
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:03 PM - The Showtime Mamba: People hated Karl a lot.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:03 PM - Juronimo: Where did this Kuz come from
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:03 PM - Sentient Meat: 2017
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:04 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Kobe likes all players that play with fire. Like Metta, Matt Barnes, Raja Bell, Rondo,
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:04 PM - Weezy: Man rondos highs and lows are so wild
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:04 PM - Weezy: Typical Melo
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:04 PM - Cookie: Dumb Rondo pass
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:05 PM - The Showtime Mamba: It was interesting the people Kobe liked. Melo was his best friend on the Olympic teams. Melo might not have played with fire like the others listed, but
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:05 PM - Weezy: Kuz asleep on D
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:06 PM - The Showtime Mamba: He was a scorer who carried a team and worked to develop his skills.
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:06 PM - Juronimo: Ok f***faces that guy can shoot
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:06 PM - Cookie: Box out
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:06 PM - Weezy: Get that s*** out
Dec 28, 2019 at 9:06 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Kuzma is looking as smooth as f***.
