so i guess this was never meant to be.

I'm guessing this was after they had already promised Nash that he would get to play with Gasol. I can't see any other reason at all for Kupchak and Buss the lesser to say no.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

lol, isaiah thomas made KD mad.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I'm guessing this was after they had already promised Nash that he would get to play with Gasol. I can't see any other reason at all for Kupchak and Buss the lesser to say no.

They say no because it was before the season, when everyone thought Gasol would be the greatest beneficiary of playing with Nash, and when nobody thought Nash would miss the entire season after 2 games. Hindsight is 20/20.

 

[Black Mamba]

That trade wasn't even legal. Duhon could not be packaged in a deal.

Sounds like bullshit.

 

[giri]

Yeah, the trade sounds very... convenient. A way to say " guys, we have total faith in Pau and he's gonna be awesome when he's back and healthy".

Sounds like just PR trash. And considering the site....

 

[SamuraiX-]

We're gonna get blown the FUCK out so hard.

Can we just play consistently decent defense for a week? Just a week? Fucking hell.

 

[Nori Chan]

You gon get this work knux fuck yo stupid swag

 

[Black Mamba]

six turnovers already. Can't take this shit.

Oh wow, offensive interference off a pass isn't a turnover? Otherwise now it would be 7, but it's just 6.

I've never seen a team turn it over like this consistently. Almost all self-inflicted.

 

[SamuraiX-]

for the love of fuck

this team, man

In true Kobe fashion you going take it and like it

 

[Knux-Future]

Turner ballin?


;_;



there is a god?

 

[SamuraiX-]

Welcome to the Carnival of Fuckball, ladies and gentlemen.

Jason Thompson has half of our FGs in the game so far.

JT - 3/6
Rest of team - 3/18

Outstanding.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

No inside scoring, once the outside Js stop falling Lakers are gonna look rreeeaallll rough.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Metta World 3

 

[Black Mamba]

No inside scoring, once the outside Js stop falling Lakers are gonna look rreeeaallll rough.

pretty much.

Another turnover. This after a botched transition play from a poor pass.

7 turnovers and 2 transition plays which should be TOs. Unreal, first quarter isn't even over.

there has to be a D-leaguer better than Morris...


28-24 after the first. Lakers with essentially 9 TOs. Imagine with only like 3-4 turnovers...so frustrating.

 

[Shadow780]

dat hang time was sweet.

 

[shira]

Can't give Valanciunas, or Davis too many minutes. They might develop into something.

Fiedls needs them minutes

 

[Black Mamba]

Really ebanks?

Really refs? Way to stop a break.

 

[Knux-Future]

3's all over our faces.

goddam

 

[K.Jack]

The Lakers NEED to have a lottery type of year. The lack of talent on this roster is incredible.

dat boi Morris is lights out right now though

 

[Black Mamba]

Someone should tell Philly Morris' single skill is shooting open 3s.

dat bench defense. Dorrell Wright shit on them, there.

The Lakers NEED to have a lottery type of year. The lack of talent on this roster is incredible.

dat boi Morris is lights out right now though

Two lottery talent players aren't playing...

They're currently playing end of the bench guys in a regular rotation. It's not comparable.

 

[SamuraiX-]

JaVale seriously has some retarded athleticism.

Wtf yo

 

[Shadow780]

Finally doin' some work inside

 

[SamuraiX-]

Nuggets are literally running drills on our court.

I can't.....

 

[Shadow780]

lol I can't get enough of that hair.

 

[Black Mamba]

Howard...

just why.

lol Bynum so mad he didn't get that green light.

Wow Tawn...


That's the Kwame I remember!

 

[Shadow780]

Have they not learned not to pass Kwame the ball?

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Meeks is having a "Fuck you Doug" type game, Nick Young is too.

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

The Lakers NEED to have a lottery type of year. The lack of talent on this roster is incredible.

What the hell am I reading.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Damn Knux why is Meeks still shooting 3's like this?

 

[Rodeo Clown]

The Suns have their pick.

Also, fuck the Lakers.

 

[Knux-Future]

Meeks is having a "Fuck you Doug" type game, Nick Young is too.

Doug loved Jodie like his own son tho.


So it's more like Doug is jerking off right now to his boy Jodie styling on Evan.

Damn Knux why is Meeks still shooting 3's like this?

Every former Sixer (except Iggy...lol) pisses on us. Brand had his own good game of the year against us.

Just the way it is.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3

 

[giri]

What the hell am I reading.

K.Jack is a cavs fan.

Cavs get the better draft pick between their own pick, and the lakers.

The suns get the worse of the two picks.

So either way, K.Jack is right, the lakers need to have a lottery type year, and so do the cavs.

Go Suns!

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Doug loved Jodie like his own son tho.

"We shoulda let the Lakers have yo wimpering-ass. Go shake Jodie's hand and tell him how good a game he's having."

 

[SamuraiX-]

Fuck you, Jordan Hamilton.

You're supposed to suck.

 

[Black Mamba]

A reverse layup for Morris is the only way that traiwreck of a possession could end, lol.

Also, fucking Nick Young.

 

[Knux-Future]

Getting styled on by Darius Morris...

yep.

This is real life.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

The Lakers NEED to have a lottery type of year. The lack of talent on this roster is incredible.

We don't have any draft picks.

 

[Fenderputty]

Morris having game of his life?

 

[Knux-Future]

AfroSwag time...

for better or worse.


My body is ready for whatever follows.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Getting styled on by Darius Morris...

yep.

This is real life.

I'm so sorry.

rofl

 

[Shadow780]

Nick Young showing his best KoMe impression.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Hey, someone guard Nick Young.

 

[Black Mamba]

I like how Kobe just chills on D against Nick Young in the corner. No fucks given.

Morris will never recreate this again.

Damn, Meeks!

What kind of pass was that, Kobe? Ew.

His baby skyhook was sweet, though.

 

[Dominican Power]

ET balling.

 

[K.Jack]

K.Jack is a cavs fan.

Cavs get the better draft pick between their own pick, and the lakers.

Oops for a moment I genuinely forgot that was this year.

Yeah LA, tank tank tank tank!

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Lakers figured out how to beat average teams. Shoot 66% from 3.

Yup, this is definitely sustainable.....yup.
