    The guy is basically a professional troll. He'll just hand-wave it away.

    Don't know if we'll win the series but I laughed when Charles Barkley called him a punk ass after the game.

    Skip Bayless will be red faced all day today. I actually would tune in to see Sharp mock his ass. We beat his precious Lakers-that little troll..............

    They would still keep Dick Vitale-only cause he's cheap.

    Dude........pro tip. Shit DOES NOT come out of water treatment plant pipes! If it does, there is a major problem. And actually, shit does not come out of wastewater treatment plant pipes......it goes in but does not come out.....unless somebody screwed up. Sorry for the OCD (from UCD) episode, but I spent 35 years working to prevent the scenario you suggested.....

    13 minutes into the clownshow, you still wouldn't know who the team was that beat the Lakers. No credit, barely a passing vague reference. This was pretty close to the transcript.

    ......19 minutes in, he finally gives Dame credit.
    Now he did bring up something I wasn't aware of, that Dame had gone 22 consecutive 4th quarter minutes without a FG. That does seem like a bit of a drought for Dame to be fair.

    However....

    .....#Winning!

    It's funny though because he has had so many lovely dimes in the 4th. HUGE dimes. I couldn't care less if he doesn't need to score for us to win.

    Bullseye! I would rather Dame lead the league in assists and the team win a title then have him lead the league in scoring for a .500 team.

    What's funny to me is that I knew Skip would bring up the stretch where Dame didn't score.

    I swear to god, this dude expects Dame to score every minute of every game. If Dame doesn't put up 60 he had a bad game. I have never seen such ridiculous expectations for a player. He scored, what, 24 in the first quarter? Something like that? It takes a lot of energy to put up that many points in a short period of time, and the Lakers changed their defense. It was obvious. So Dame started to defer. Try to find other guys. The problem was that NOBODY ELSE WAS SCORING in the second. Nobody could hit a shot. Not Melo. Not GTJ. Just nobody.

    He scored a ton in the first when we needed to set the tone and get out to a good start, and he scored a bunch in the 4th when we really needed him. For anyone to think that Dame had a bad game is just hyperbole. He's a point guard. His job isn't to score. His job is to run the team, and score when necessary. Skip completely disregards that the time that Dame wasn't scoring, CJ was going off. Why would Dame jack up shots while CJ is on fire? It's absurd. This guy is a clown, plain and simple.
