    All that passing is worthless if teams play 10 feet off you the whole game and you can’t make them pay.

    Hopefully they both play zero minutes in the 4th quarter.

    Blazers down 16, it's not a "blowout". Does Chauncey clear the bench anyways?

    Isn't a broken nose usually result of a nasal contusion with more impact?

    This is not interesting basketball. I'm putting all my ticket up for sale until something changes.

    It's not worth the effort to watch in person. Brogdon and Grant. Not what I was expecting.

    It allows teams to sag off essentially giving a free double team. In today’s NBA you can’t get away with that.

    I want Scoot in running the offense with the new guy, Rupert, Badji and Murray.

    somebody took a hit of weed by the score table. The Lakers announcers can smell "incense burning".

    Neither Dwight Howard nor Rick Fox currently play for the Lakers. So, he may be okay.

    I'd love to see Murray and Rupert and Camara. Walker is a given.

    When DLo is on one you’re not beating the Lakers. Usually you rely on his bad shot selection as part of your defensive strategy.

    Mychal noticed what we're growing used to. Everyone but Camara lightly jogging back on D.

    I think we must lead the league in steals not converted into points.

    Brogdon and Grant are back in the game?

    What a fucking joke.
