That KCP shot was the dumbest **** I've seen in a while. It wasn't even a 2 for 1 opportunity.

This game was basically over once Lonzo went out anyways. If the Lakers somehow pull this one out of their *** that’s a huge win for them.

Toronto blowing out the Grizz with no Kawhi.. Memphis might need to try and just blow this thing up. Build around Jackson, they are ****ing awful.

Only thing I could see stopping them from dealing Gasol is a team not wanting him to pick up his 25m option. He'll be 35 next year. Don't know many playoff teams wanting a 35 year old big man making 25m.

And Conley is stuck there with that contract.

Darn it looked like the lakers had the game tonight there was about 6 plays where it just one of those things dont happend lakers win. That shoot late 4th that Harden banked in was such a lucky shoot. The big shoot that tied the game to end the 4th quarter. Giving up 2 offensive rebounds and than a foul with around 57 seconds left in over time. That shoot that KCP took with around 23 seconds left that should have never been shoot talk about bad shoot selection. Letting an extra like 6-7 seconds off the clock before you decided to foul right after that. Having trouble getting the ball in at the end there when it went of Kuzma.

Re: 1/15 - 1/21 Games Discussion Thread

Something I am starting to notice with BI is how he needs to put on a little more muscle. Its not just that he is a skinny looking guy so is KD but what I am starting to notice is like any kind of contact throws his off. Like ever time there is some kind of contact he ends up either losing the ball or losses his balance when he shoots. If he had just a little more muscle and strength he would be able to take contact better with out losing his balance or the ball and be able to fight threw it. I have seen so many times where he gets bumped just a little bit and than he losses the ball. Even though a guy like KD may be a skinny guy he can take contact much better.

Refs screwed up. Only sent him to the line for 15 FT. Should have been at least 20 for an OT game.

And the Lakers had 17 in the 4th. Probably should have closed the game out. Do that and the Rockets shoot zero FTs in overtime and the Lakers have a nice +9 advantage at the stripe.

*Also, at least 6 of those OT free throws were from intentionally fouling.

I can’t believe Harden has done what he’s done against top teams, with inconsistent lineups, very little help, and against defenses where all five guys are keyed in on him at all times. Say what you will about his style of play, but what he’s doing for Houston is flat out astonishing.

Tonight he was making all the right plays to start the game. His teammates had WIDE OPEN (talking open practice shoot around) shots that just wouldn’t fall... again and again.. as the Lakers just keyed in on Harden. He kept making the right passes and they kept on bricking. The leadership and poise to not force the issue and trust his guys was great. The announcers kept saying it’s an “off night” and then you look up and he has almost 50 on efficient shooting. By the way, NOT going for 50 when he easily could have and instead playing for the win says a lot about him. Great gutsy win. Sadly I’m guessing win (like this Laker game) or lose (like the BK game) they’re all going to take Herculean efforts from Harden for this rag tag group to even have a chance. 6’6” Tucker at center with 4 guards is not sustainable! Team needs Clint back in the worst way. Way more than CP3 honestly.

Funny thing is he couldve gotten it if he really wanted but basically ignored the ball the last few minutes on purpose.


As for Ingram, the hype is what's killing people on his bandwagon. He's not THAT guy, its just that he's in Los Angeles where they hype you up to infinity.

Also Ingram is far skinnier than Durant... no meat on his bones whatsoever. KD is slim but he still has an NBA body.

Its also funny to see people throwing players in the trash bin on a game to game basis.
