a tribe called..... lakers bench?

I really think it's because of the season sweep last season and maybe the selfies covering the banners that got them pumped up for this game.

Ah man these last 8 pages , this is why this thread is great.

I still don't understand how you get defended by Wesley Johnson in the paint.

 

[quik1987]

Wow not what i was expecting. Congrats Lakers fans.

I wonder how long it is going to take for Doc Rivers coaching of Paul to be called into question. Because when he intially left the C's, there was a lot of talk regarding how Chris Paul would be managed, and if it was becuase of Doc that Rondo did a lot of standing around pounding the ball. I only watched one of their Preseason games, and the game yesterday and I'm seeing a lot of that out of Paul, moreso than how he was playing last year at the very least. I'm not even counting the times where he was waiting for people like Reddick to come off the screens for shots, he was just not aggressive whatsoever, and you would think it would be different with Steve Nash and Steve Blake being the guys who had to defend him.

Maybe I'm over reacting he still had 11 assists, but this game just seemed set up for him to feast and it was ehh.

Are the Orlando Magic blatantly tanking? How on EARTH did Andrew Nicholson score 18 points in the first half and not even check back into the game til the 4th quarter?

 

[shannonscrooks]

^If I am not mistaken, I beleve he had 4 fouls to go along with those points. Could be the reason. Not 100% sure though

Are you going to a captain save a Brian shaw when the nuggets don't make the playoffs because he decided to force feed the ball into javale mcgee?

Ummmm I don't think it's a secret in Philly and Phoenix either

We were all just reminded of the losers the clippers are lol. I admit I wrote off the lakers but shame on me to ever bet on the LA flippers. Only other team to match their level of fail to expectation ratio are the Knicks

Be Blake griffin

 

[parada45]

I never liked that team for him to begin with, theyre directionless. Coaching a middle of the pack team is always hard, people tend ot expect more out of them than what they can actually deliver. I wanted him to get the Cavs Job.

#TheReturn

12 pts & 5 turnovers

 

[markangelo]

well knock me over with a feather.. Lakers showed some heart

 

[blastercombo]

12 pts & 5 turnovers

I'm no Mia fan at all but I think the scary thing is that they murdered chi without LBJ having to do much of anything but pass and defend

 

[memphisboi55]

Xavier didn't do diddly squat in Memphis

 

[noblekane]

I doubt that lakers bench EVER scores 73 points again. Lol

Probably wont ever happen in the teams history again either
