AROUND THE NBA THREAD. NOV 2021 edition

Lowry has been incredibly clutch in this 4th quarter.

Remember when talk about Dame/CJ and Lowry/Derozan was a thing until Dame raised his rep with plays and shots which are a legit part of NBA history.

 

big scuffle in the Pacer/Jazz game tonight. Watch the first part of this video and see how Joe Ingles shoved the official..pretty forcefully. I'd think a suspension is on the way

also, that game showed why Portland was lucky to play Indiana without Brogdon

 

You know who's FIRST in deflections? Warning: this might sting a little:

 

Signs it's still early:

 

If Steve Kerr is the coach of the Blazers would our assist go up? Do we see open shot for Dame like Steph? What about those pick and roll bounce passes that ends up a turnover?

 

1-11 after the third tonight. Still won’t go 1-13

 

Lakers are so bad
I’m not sure bringing LeBron back automatically makes it better unless they are just not trying, but it doesn’t seem that way. AD is playing high minutes.

They have so many ball dominant scorers

Outscored 40-12 in the third quarter

 

Warriors so fun to watch on both ends… so jealous with their ball movement and no one on one dribble dribble like CJ

 

We should trade CJ and go with ANT. Trent and Ant would be solid enough if we got somebody solid back in a trade. Maybe Olshey tried and there isn’t a lot of interest in him on his contract?

 

Carmelo Anthony is having a great night in Los Angeles against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is 1 for 11 for 3 points through 3 quarters.
Only Anthony Davis has taken more shots than Carmelo for the Lakers.

 

47-12 MIN in the 2nd half and still 10 minutes left.

It’s not Minnesota’s fault that the Lakers are so bad if they win by 50. What are they supposed to do when even the Lakers bench sucks…

 

This guy said the Lakers without LeBron are “so much better” than the blazers.

 

Jake Layman sighting

Which I guess means the Lakers got trashed

…In Layman’s terms at least.

 

vogel might get fired tonight

 

Since when is light blue a Lakers Color?

Garbage uniforms might be why they lost; burn them all - or donate them to the less fortunate.

Edit: Better yet, play in them every game.

 

Not to discredit Minnesota; they are talented.
Lakers are just legit trash

 

@THE HCP Are the Lakers still working out the kinks in their seven superstar attack?

 

Dennis Schroder: 15 pts, 4 rebs, 6 ast
Kyle Kuzma: 15 pts, 9 reb, 2 ast
KCP: 9 pts, 4 reb, 2 ast
Montrazel Harrell: 18 pts, 9 rebs, 2 ast
Andre Drummond: 7 pts, 11 reb, 2 ast
Alex Caruso: 9 pts, 3 reb, 4 ast
Markieff Morris: 8 pts, 3 reb, 1 ast

so, the 7 rotation guys they got rid of are averaging 76 points, 43 rebounds, & 19 assists. And KCP and Caruso were their 2 best perimeter defenders. They've replaced those guys Westbrook, Melo, Bazemore, Bradley, and Rondo....hahahahaha
