    Maybe they would be. Come back when you have a statistically significant sample, like 80 games.

    I think without Kobe and the bogus ticky tack fouls they draw when he plays, they are actually pretty fun to watch. Lots if unheralded players hitting big shots.

    Well, the statistics are over the 2012-13 season, so that's 80 games. So I'll ask again once more. If your stupid obsession with anti-hero ball is correct, the Houston Rockets are better without James Harden.

    How about the Celtics running off a large winning streak when Rondo went out?

    Wait.. How many games has he missed... Or are you using on court +/-? If the latter, I assume you are aware how flawed that is since you are comparing entirely different lineups.

    Yes, I think Rondo is a net negative also, but for a different reason. Ball dominant PGs who can't shoot make it much easier for the defense to key in, one reason why Jason Kidd didn't win squat until he was old (and got a jumper).

    Don't worry they're better without him too, according to our expert Clippy. You can reach him in between Kobe's thighs.

    Why you so salty bro? Upset that the Lakers are winning against a great team without your hero?

    You know you suck at free throws when your announcers go crazy after a 2/2 trip.

    Not even salty one bit. Just trying to shut the idiot of this board up, polluting threads with senseless and most of all baseless bickering

    Maybe what I'm saying is controversial, but as tonight's game is showing, I'm right again. And I absolutely want the Lakers to lose because I know how dangerous they are, especially if Nash returns.

    Rockets can eliminate the Lakers from the playoffs on Wednesday night. How sweet that would be!

    There is no chance that will happen. Lakers will only lose if Utah loses one of the two games before and GS and Houston have locked up the 6/7.

    Even if the Lakers weren't better than the Rockets (which they are now without one guy taking up half their offense), the refs would never let them go out at this point, being so close.

    only if Utah can win two in a row including Memphis.

    on the other end of that coin, The Lakers could still take the 7th seed from the Rockets Wednesday night. how much would that suck?

    One down. You feel that confident about your Rockets winning @Staples wiith the Lakers playoff hopes (aka "win one for kobe!") at stake? Yeah I wouldn't either.
