    And 95% of the time it happens for the star players.

    Have to play Dame. I don't care if he has 5 fouls. If we get behind it could be curtains for us.

    Let's see if this timeout to save the possession works out better than last time.

    30 points in the first.
    31 points in the second.
    34 points in the third.
    8 points in the 4th with only 7 minutes to play.

    What is the deal with this?

    I know what you're saying, but every time I see him play he is equal to or better than LMA in nearly everything he does. He is a much better basketball player.

    LA doesn't get even remotely the kind of ref treatment that Griffin does. They can body the fuck out of LA with no call. That absolutely affects how you play the game.

    Better athlete. LaMarcus is a much more polished player and he gets almost no calls.

    Because he rarely attacks the hoop. You can body up when someone has their back to you. LMA just avoids contact so he doesn't get FTA.
