    Yes. Griffin actually always had some problems with Pau's length. I'm not saying Pau really stopped him but he made him work a lot tougher. But now that Blake has greatly improved his shot. Tonight could be scary, Halloween or not.

    Boozer already sucked in the Least ... He's going to get destroyed playing better PFs in the West ...

    Well at least we loose by 18...or 40. But need better execution down the stretch.

    Paper clips got several calls in their favor but we still should have won. Kobe had no legs towards the end, he looked gassed, missed some shots he typically makes

    The saddest part about this, is that there is no out, we suck, and we have to get used to it. 2012 it was "fire Brown and we'll get better". 2013 it was "fire 'Antoni and we'll get better", and "well we're missing Kobe so of course we're gonna suck". Now, there's nothing to be done to fix this. We have nothing to trade for talent, we aren't firing Scott (as we shouldn't) because it wouldn't make a difference, he needs time and talent. Also can't really say injuries are holding us back other than maybe Young, and having Randle as that fun spark off the bench. But they aren't going to save us, and neither is Kelly. Gonna be a long season, there is no one to blame this time, we just aren't very good, it is what it is.

    For sure. They jobbed us tonight. I didn't appreciate that. Still we had our chances. I loved the effort out there.

    That was horse bleep, especially after the no touch foul on Johnson out at top of key and the no touch on Boozer down low and one other really ticky tack call. How could no one see Jordan just knock him out of the air, it was ridiculous.

    actually the very next play after the lin no call CP3 gets foul shots on a phantom foul. Also Crawford got a bunch of calls running into his own screener. it was crazy watching all those whistles.

    good effort but sadly, that's as good as it's going to get in terms of overall performance this season. just sucks that it didn't end up as a W

    The time we had to play Sacre late in the third/to start the 4th didn't help us ....

    Both teams were BAD defensively ... we had a nice third quarter , some nice sets and action between Kobe, Lin , Boozer ...

    Not in any order, but these 3 things cost us the game tonight: Sacre, Wesley, the Refs
