I known the seasons is long and we are only 2 games in but with how hard the west is and now with being with out guys for who knowns how long you have to wonder if the lakers may get them self's into to big of a hole to like make playoffs.

That whole thing could’ve been avoided. Ingram was extra for no reason and escalated all because of him.

And like Dre said, it’s Game 2, lol.

Pivotal game.

Yeah I mean they are 0-2 and can only lose around 30+ more. I think they might be in too big of a hole.

Yeah. CP3 deserved to get punched. Thats the type of mess that would get you punched if you were in public and Rondo the type of dude to not care about the consequences if it involves his self respect.

I got no idea what Lebron was doing. I get first instinct is to go calm down/check your friend, but after that you gotta go have your teammates back. Its too late to mediate, punches were already thrown.

I do think if the ref is going give Harden those type of calls again (for yet another year) players should just start knocking Harden to the floor, HARD, at every oppurtunity. If you gonna give me a foul anyway I'ma earn that ****.

It really is crazy the kind of calls Harden gets if he didn't get the kind of calls he gets he would shoot and score much less.

I am just saying with as crazy as the nba is now with being soft I could see this being long suspensions. I have seen much less get like seveal games for and if it is long suspensions than they could get off to a really bad start.

LeBron hasn't been as sharp offensively or defensively. His man constantly got open looks after he would inexplicably leave him several times.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seemed like we actually were better with LeBron off the court in this game. Especially on the defensive side of the ball because of LeBron's lack of effort? Focus?

I hate to tell you this, but LeBron has been an awful defender for about 2 years now.

It's a shame that Tragic Johnson convince LeBron he knew what he was doing with this team. This isnt the way LeBron should go out. Here's to hoping the Lakers get a legit star next to him and not that ***** Ingram.

They may make the playoffs, but without Rondo or Ingram for a few games and others not taking the next step? Its gonna be tough.

Not the dream start for sure but the team has been pretty competitive with everyone not playing as well as they can. KCP, Lebron, Ingram, Kuzma have all been average/bad by their standards. And still the team was competitive both games. It's not like they've been blown out.



It's unfortunate that we lost Rondo and Ingram though. I think Lebron can still carry this team to a couple of wins in the meantime with Ball and Hart stepping up.

We shall see.

It should be noted that when LeBron is on a new team, it takes a while for that team to hit its stride.

If the Lakers fall into a hole of, say, 0-5 or 3-7? It could be enough to crush their playoff hopes in the West. The Lakers are not going to be good enough to take that kind of hit.

Man, I dislike Chris Paul so much. Always starting **** and acting like the victim.

Wait til Monday morning when the takes really get the flying.

“Did Lebron make the wrong move in going to the Lakers after LA falls to 0-2?”

“What did his support of CP3 mean during Lakers-Rockets fracas? Should Magic be concerned about that?”

Brandon Ingram is trash.

He could've come off the trash list if he snuffed the referee.

He blew it.

I know I'm just hating cause I'm rocking with the Lakers now, but does anyone actually appreciate the way Harden and CP3 play the game?

Some people say it was Melo who spit on Paul by accident. Funny if true especially when Melo was all "this is inexcusable blabla" after the game.

They're already talking about the Lakers upcoming schedule which is supposedly not very friendly for them.
