    That was a shitty, shitty, shitty fucking win. I'm just happy that the juju on my new hat is intact.

    And by the way, LA was 14/25 vs Atlanta if you want efficiency.

    Yes he is. I feel like his teammate is better, but that's a flavor thing, obviously.

    Nice ugly win. Bottom line, Trade CJ while he may still have some value and package him with Trob if you can, IMO both are pretty much worthless

    Exactly, that Points per attempt ratio is terrible! He's not good, he's just good at getting his shot off.

    The way they were playing, it sure did look like it.

    Sometimes I wish Dame would just go all Dame in the first quarter and the 4th quarter. Maybe we could put away a few teams earlier. But if I have to pick one then it's great that he is Mr 4th quarter.

    On a side note there is something sweet about hearing the Laker post game announcers talk about moral victories and "how hard they played"

    I do. And if you look, it was because he was 7/17 (not efficient) until the 4th, when he went 6/6 in the paint. He was 5/14 outside the paint, and 9/11 inside. Today, 4/13 outside paint, 4/7 inside. There's a trend here.

    With Rolo and Freeland out, I'm just glad Meyers had a double double and Kaman rebounded well and blocked some shots. Anyway we win with our A and B centers out is a plus. Damian is a machine! What a finisher! He's really, really special.

    I give Lamarcus a pass coming off respiratory infections. He almost had 20/10 tonight even on a horrible shooting night.

    Great win. 27-8. 2nd best team in NBA. On pace to win 63 games despite a myriad of injuries to Batum, Freeland, Aldridge (sick), Lopez, and McCollum. Aldridge best big man in December. Stotts Coach of the Month. 24-5 in last 29 games. Same as Warriors.

    QUIT. BITCHING.
