    Terry looks emaciated on the bench.

    I selfishly wanted to see Harden go for 50, but I'll take the win and some rest.

    BTW, Morey and Co if KJ isn't in your plans just trade him already.

    I bet KJ would have not resigned if he knew he still wouldn't play

    It's the Lakers, so hard to get too excited about what you see, but tough to believe Terrence Jones managed a -11 in a 17-point win.

    Great play from Dwight tonight. Really hoping Montrezl continues to get some legit minutes.

    Terry played while being ill. Stepped up because Beverley could not go tonight. Beverley should be ready tomorrow against the Clippers. Terry will get to rest.

    I have never been more disappointed in Harden than the other day (v Cavs). I think Harden is going through growing pains only and can still lead us to the promised land, but that was just an abysmal performance. I know it was only the Lakers but nonetheless it was encouraging to see him bounce back well. Didn't get a chance to watch the game so could only follow via box score, can anyone give me a rundown on how he played today? Did he play off ball more? Did he handle the ball less? I am happy to see he only had two turnovers. Maybe this is the game when the light bulb comes on in his head and he sees he can be just as devastating being the secondary facilitator but the number one option, getting easy looks off ball. Did he bring it on D as well? Much appreciated, will rep!

    He just looked like he didn't care. That one play where Lebron blew right by him he could have fouled him hard and sent a message but he just let him go right by. There is something wrong they are just not talking about it.

    Seems like he is coasting or pacing himself. Last year he would take the ball to the basket with reckless abandon. He didn't settle for the three nearly as much and showed consistent defensive intensity. This year it's a completely different guy out there. Maybe he is waiting until March/April to really turn it on. I don't know, but he is definitely not the same player he was last regular season.
