    Aldridge and Dame were great against Houston, but this shitfest performance by Dame and substandard shooting from LA is nothing new...they played like this against the Spurs in the second round last year.

    Aldridge shot 41% from the floor (bad for a big man) and Dame shot an abymsal 17.4% from three pt land in the Spurs series.

    Bill Walton would be licking his lips right now, saying this is right where we want to be at halftime.

    Maybe it all comes down to coaching....

    Maybe he don't motivate them or doesn't know how to motivate this group.

    It's really too bad he's letting his broke ass shot and lack of love from the refs keep him down.

    But props to MEM, their D is LeGit.

    It's just a shame that the series was decided by that first half. I wonder what they do for the 2nd half and remaining games since the series is already over.

    I believe it was torn ligaments in his shooting hand.

    I think he tore ligaments or something in his shooting hand. He landed on the court and his ring+middle finger bent all the way back. It was in December though.

    I'm sick of Dame. I hear way too much talk. He needs to start bringing it. This little shor deal has gone to his head

    Fantastic start to the second half. Seriously, can we just fast forward to the end?

    oh wow I wasn't unaware of that. Well I could understand a little bit why his shooting is off, but still I've seen Aldridge have plenty of great games with his shooting. who knows.

    I hope Stotts actually uses Meyers in this game as well the series because he can space the floor for the team.
