2014-15 Lakers Season Thread (21-61) KAT

[kal-el-8]

So we've established that Nick Young is worse than both Smush Parker, and Luke Walton.

4 year contract tho.


Mitch

Essential would beg to differ.


But I agree..

 

[pmatic]

I knew things would balance themselves out and I shouldn't be that worked up over it, but those late, comeback wins vs the Spurs, Rockets, Pacers really irk me.

 

[mosk33toe]

Out of all the things to complain about this season, Nick Young is the main target?

This guy may be going through a slump, but he would be a decent bench player on a good team, and that is our goal, to eventually become a good team.

Let him go out here this year, get his Kobe on, good for the people who actually pay to watch these games, have some sort of enjoyment to it, because god knows they need it.

And when we reload and get our team back to being competitive he can go play that scorer of the bench that every team needs.

I'm more disappointed honestly in Sacre's and Kelly's development...

 

[pmatic]

Sacre is what he is. A fourth big man in a rotation (at best) for 10-12 minutes a game. Probably a fifth to be honest.

Kelly's development is getting wrecked because Byron is playing him at SF for some inexplicable reason.

 

[kal-el-8]

Nick young is locked up for 4 years tho. Hell be like 34 and all is he is a glorified chucker. Smush was better than this bum. Cuz at least smush stayed in his lane. This guy wants to talk the talk but can't walk the walk. Doesn't play d, doesn't pass, he's a chucker.

Sacre and kelly you're disappointed in? 2 second round picks that figure to be end of the bench guys. That's who you're disappointed in? What the **** were your expectations? Dirk and Kareem???

Don't forget the OT wins over the Raptors and Bulls, or the fact we somehow managed to beat both the Warriors, and the Hawks.


Those are 4-5-6-7 EASY losses we could have. We'd be sitting pretty right now in the #1 spot, and we'd be guaranteed a top 3-4 pick already.


We could have been a 10-12 win team, for the whole year, if not for those games.

 

[licensed to ball]

Man I swear if we're reminded of that Bulls loss one more freakin time...

100 times is enough man.

We get it. But were 1-14 in our last 15 games. We won a game we shouldn't have won, but we've lost at least 3 games we SHOULDNT HAVE LOST.

OJ Mayo fluky heroics gave us one, an epic Magic clutch fluky overtime shots gave us another...

It's more than balanced out.

If anything we should be 2-13 in the last 15 games, if you gave us the L against the Bulls and the W's against the Bucks and Magic like it was "supposed" to be.

So if anything we've gotten luckier to have one less loss.

It's time to let it go, please man.
You can't ask for anything better than 1-14 in tanking, it's still the NBA these dudes are scrubs but they're still going to find ways to get lucky *** wins some nights they're not supposed to. Lucky shots are made in basketball everyday around the whole world.

 

[CP1708]

We're talking about having the #1 pick, or the #4 pick. There can be a huge difference in there.

Maybe there won't be, maybe 1 and 4 both become Hall of Famers, I don't know, but what I DO know, is these games are worthless as hell, and we shouldn't be trying to get them. Doing so, could be catastrophic. I don't want that. I want us to have the absolute best chance to take the guy we like best. Whoever they deem that to be.

Those wins CAN haunt us, and I don't want them to, same as last year's wins might cost us in the long run. I'm not going to just shrug them off. No.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Take my reps ltb. It's yours

 

[licensed to ball]

Just stop whining about it. We can't control the past.

We're obviously headed in a good direction with the tank, and like P said **** balances itself out.

STOP.
WHINING.
EVERYDAY.

You said this year was different, that the vibe was better and that things are peaceful.

Well... They are, until you come in whining about the same W for the 87th time.

They are, until you come in making fun of fans who don't wanna give Kevin Love a max contract (for understandable reasons).

They are, until you come in and make fun of fans for their predictions with the Cleveland ******* Cavaliers which none of us here even care about.

If you want things to stay peaceful, then be peaceful. Harping over W's that are weeks in the past, taunting fans for their "stupidity" on how they view other teams, and forcing your opinion on a player you want to Max out but most dont, down everyone's throat, is not peace.

Just my 2 cents.

Stop whining, and everything will be fine.

 

[CP1708]

I'm not whining, I'm posting on a message board.

I don't care if you don't want to hear about the Bulls game, it was relative to the games P posted about, as well as the Raps/Warriors/Hawks games I brought up.

Nothin wrong with me including that game. I have to see tons of stupid **** in here all the time, nothin I can do about those things either. So just let it be.

And whatever the rest of that is. I'm not even gonna deal with that ****. Whatever man.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

"I'm not whining " lolz

I need to figure out how he does that. Like a Jedi hand wave thing.

Dude brought up games from November, I mentioned one last week, I'm gettin sniped. Lololololol

But the difference is P is at least balanced enough to say "oh well things balance themselves out."

It's whining, then positive reinforcement.

For you it's "ugh were so screwed because of that one W and our fans are so dumb to realize it!! I'm not going to let it go!!"

 

[licensed to ball]

And P isn't in here whining about people's opinions on the Cleveland Cavs.

Just sayin.

 

[pmatic]

 

[licensed to ball]

CP is on his way to Twitter to take dem subliminal shots at me as we wait

 

[CP1708]

Let it all out fam. You haven't had an emotional day in a while, let it flow bruh.

 

[licensed to ball]

Nice.

The good ol' damn I have no rebuttal for that so I'll throw a subtle personal shot for the lulz response.

Now we can move forward.

Or that we shouldn't go after kawhi or dray, but should go after k love
