    Not good, Saw last year how shitty the offense was when defenses could focus on stopping Lillard alone.

    Or wait.

    Blessing in disguise! Aldridge is a terrible inefficient player. bench him.

    My bet would be Meyers starting, another big who can shoot from outside. Then Stotts could keep his bench rotation intact with Kaman/Freeland probably playing increased minutes. But I wouldn't mind Kaman starting.

    For keeping the locker room happy, it has to be Kaman. He is the only bench player who would start on other teams, yet he is happily sacrificing. That needs to be rewarded when the starter goes down. It's a very different situation than with Batum since his back ups are not starter quality vets sacrificing for the sake of the team.

    Going against B Lopez and Garnett you're not going to start Meyers or TRob. You could start Freeland and Rolo or Kaman and Rolo. Stotts surprised me when AC started for Nico, so anything's possible. I thin Kaman takes LA's spot though.

    Honestly I really don't give a flying shit about Lakers anymore. It's like that nagging pimple that bothered me deep in the inside of my nose. For the longest time, I would try to pop it, trying to relieve the pressure. Then one day it was gone and I don't even remember when. It just disappeared like I never knew it was ever there in the first place.

    The Lakers aren't even my most hated team anymore. Why? Because there are other teams I'm more concerned with.

    Clips and OKC have become my most hated now. I worry about Golden State, but they haven't hit my "hatred card" yet. The last "flex pose" by that fuck shooting guard to our fans did get my goat though

    YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!! The L*kers should always be your most hated team, just spread the hate to cover the others. Don't make me report you to Wookee.

    He looked so bad last night it was embarrassing. The Spurs looked like they were scrimmaging.

    Do you think he'll try to break Kareem's all time record for most points?

    it's the only reason he's still playing, well that and making $25 million a year for no good reason.

    I don't know man... I need my energy towards relevant teams. I'm sure my hatred will come back when the NBA awards them #1 pick and they have oodles of cap space.

    For now there are bigger fish to fry
