Heat are playing like the entire first half against us.

 

Welp.

OMG...the Hornets are like the haven for NBA outcast and failed draft picks. Oddly, I want to see them do well.


They've got Lamb, Lin, Zeller, Batum, Kemba, Hawes, Hansbrough, Williams, and Jefferson.

 

Lamb scored 20 tonight

Drummond is just 22 guys; wow

 

Whiteside with 23 pts and 14 rebounds in 11/12 shooting and the heat still lost lol

 

Wanna know how bad the Mavs' paint defense is? Scola damn near had 20-10 on 9 for 13 shooting, lol

Mavs are trash. Terrible roster. Only 3 solid players, 2 of them are injured (matthews/parsons) and the other one is an elder statesman. The only thing they have going for them is Carlisle who is a great coach.

 

Clarkson 6/7 14 pts in the first qtr

 

It's taken the media about 2-3 years to figure out what any rational person already knew regarding Kobe. He's just not a good basketball player anymore.

 

Julius Randle is a monster

 

Kobe will still be your starting guard in the all-star game.

 

Drummond 25 pts 29 rebounds. WTF

 

Makes that pick of Russell that much puzzling

 

Lakers decision to draft to Russell still baffles me. You draft a PG who made 1st team All Rookie First Team just last year and you have zero big man prospects.

 

Nevermind guess I forgot Randle. Still could've gotten Porzingis.

Lol. The lakers suck. There was a time when I thought the lakers would never have stretches like this. But this will now be 3 straight crappy years for them. Hopefully they have 10 more years like this.

 

Lakers tonight are another good example of why just giving in & matching your opponent's small ball lineup isn't always a great idea. I think they probably win this game if Hibbert plays more than ~15 minutes.
