True but like I said, I expect Nash to improve that since he is one of the best playmakers in the league still. So we'll have to see if he makes a difference in the next game or two.
Something is definitely wrong with Parker. He doesn't look right and that's keeping the Lakers in the game.
I want the spurs to crush their souls. I want it so bad that Dwight would look silly to turn down Houston to stay with old Nash and Kobe. Especially if the Rockets are able to have some fun games like tonight and even win one or two games. It could be huge in his decision making.
As much as I want Dwight to come to Houston, I could never call him silly for choosing an extra 30 mil and the city of LA. However...from purely a basketball standpoint, there's no doubt that Houston > LA. Really...Houston might be the best situation for him out of any other team in the league.
The 30 million is the big thing he is going to have to get over. If he want's to live in L.A so bad he can do so when he retires. I always feel like superstars always put winning and money WAY over destination. But that's another discussion. Agreed. He looks silly regardless as far as just bball wise...but I want the point hammered home that he can't expect to get a championship with old nash and Kobe... Looks like Parker is playing a little better. If he plays like his usual self this series is done.
Dwight has said that he wants to win championships and that'll be a big part of his decision, so if he really is true to his word (he won't be), he will leave LA. It's just an obvious decision now that Kobe is officially breaking down. Granted, LA will definitely reload, and there's a 99% chance they'll lure a max FA once Kobe comes off the books, but Dwight's 27 or 28 or so (can't remember), so he's gotta decide how long he wants to wait.
Never mind, just saw him diving on the floor. Did J.Chill(Jordan Hill) play tonight? Saw he was cleared to (miraculously) play. I don't feel sorry for LA, but wow, all those injuries. Nash, Blake Kobe Metta Gasol Howard, Hill
T-mac is getting past the first round y'all! I hope he can play in one game lol. Also, why isnt Boris Diaw playing?
Since Kobe has not played the last 4 games, Pau Gasol is doing fantastic without him! 22 for 64 from the field for a very efficient 34%.
