No Dwight, No Pau, No Hill....


That's pretty much that for LA's playoff hopes.

Might as well fire Mike D right now.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Lakers should go into tank mode asap.

If their pick is in the lottery, it goes to Phoenix.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

Mike Trudell‏ @LakersReporter

Dwight Howard is out at least 1 week with a torn labrum in his right shoulder. Re-evaluated next week.

 

[Baby Milo]

LakersReporter: The actual wording on Howard’s right shoulder: “He has a torn labrum and will be out indefinitely … re-examined next week.”

oh man

 

[AgentChris]

Where will D12 play next season because it will not be with the Lakers?

 

[Cloudy]

LMAO Dwight, Pau and Hill out? Who rebounds? OMG

 

[linsivvi]

Kome ball all day, every day of the week. At least I don't need to see Dwight getting stripped over and over again or hear Pau screaming like teenage girls at a Bieber concert. Sucks that Jordan Hill can't play though.

Actually, Antoni must be very happy right now. His dream of starting 5 guards in an NBA game will finally come true.

 

[exarkun]

Lakers, time to tank for Shabazz, Zeller, Noel, McAddoo, Plumlee...

Any of them is better than whoever is on that bench!

So I have been doing drive by's on the thread because I am a sucker for punishment but I got to hand it to you lifers in here really hashing out the pain. I have gotten to this weird state of numbness to the whole thing. There is ringing in my ears my palms are sweaty. I swear this season is giving me PTSD and its not even done!

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

The Lakers interior defense being Clark/Jamison could lead to Harden being the first guard to score 60 points in a game without taking a jumpshot.

Where will D12 play next season because it will not be with the Lakers?

Hawks with his old friends Smoove and Lou.

 

[KingKong]

I'd rather watch Kobe take every shot than have MWP/Sacre/Earl Clark shoot

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Nash Morris Kobe Metta Sacre starting line up is almost as bad as Duhon Meeks Ebanks Jamison Clarke bench....almost.

Unintentional Tank has begun, you're welcome Phoenix.

 

[jobber]

welp


there goes the Dirk for Howard rumors that started this morning.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

INJURY UPDATE: @jordanchill43 has an injured hip and also will not be with the team on the upcoming road trip.

 

[ratcliffja]

So the only healthy stars on the team are the oldest ones, who will likely have to get even more minutes now? Maybe the Lakers should just move to Phoenix.

It's not that painful to me. If the trades never happened we'd still be stuck with Mike Clown and Bynum and the team still wouldn't be getting anywhere. Bynum still hasn't played a game this season. At least Kobe and Nash are playing well offensively.

The plan is still the same as before: blow things up the summer of '14.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

I was Team Sacre since day one anyway.

Let's go dumb strength, let's go!

 

[Cloudy]

Well, it'll be fun to see Kobe get 50 at least. To be honest, I'll miss Hill the most of those 3...

 

[exarkun]

They don't have a draft pick.

omg, i forgot. But what can the Lakers do?

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Suffer.

 

[Baby Milo]

hey maybe Pringles will get lucky again and Earl Clarke will become a superstar

 

[darkside31337]

Lakers will now proceed to go on a 15 game winning streak.

The problem was Dwight all along.

 

[KingKong]

omg, i forgot. But what can the Lakers do?

trade Howard for Bynum and Gasol for Odom + Barnes

I wish I could say I cannot believe it, but I can.....real nutty stuff...

 

[reilo]

This is for all of the years that Kobe escaped the Konex curse. It has begun.

No thx.

 

[KingGondo]

Someone please create a version of this with Dragic, Jared Dudley, and the Lakers logo in place of the Raps'.

Thanks.

Dwight tore his labrum pulling the knife Kobe put into his back.

 

[charsace]

What's going on with the Lakers is great stuff. They've been delaying rebuilding for a while now.

Big man depleted @Lakers haven't reached out to free agent Kenyon Martin, source said.Lakers also would have to cut a player for roster spot

Before the Nash and D12 trade I was fully on board with the pain. I was eating lots of pork and refusing to flush the toilet for weeks at a time in anticipation of all the shit that was going to be thrown on me and then I let myself dream and all that planning went to hell.

 

[h3ro]

That trade is still a win for the Lakers since they aren't now stuck with max deal bynum.

 

[Red Blaster]

@Mike_Bresnahan
Metta World Peace might play a little center as well, Lakers Coach Mike D'Antoni said. Surreal

yesssssssssssss

 

[darkside31337]

Yeah but they're stuck with Chris Duhon.

 

[KingKong]

well it is a small ball league after all

 

[rando14]

yesssssssssssss

 

[charsace]

Dwight had his first injury so now its over for him. Look at how fast he's gotten a second injury that could be serious. When guys that are 6'8 and taller get that first serious injury the rest just start to que up to be added on.

I was never fully on board with the dream because Mike Brown was still the coach. At least Kobe can move up the all-time scoring list faster now and won't be taking any blame.

yesssssssssssss

5 wing players or bust. If you're going down, at least go down in style.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Not having to deal with Bynum and most likely having Dwight for the future is still a great trade.

Then The 2014 blow up. I had high hopes for this team but everything could have gone wrong did. I just hope Kobe and Nash don't get hurt foolishly trying to win.

 

[giri]

PS if we get two top 5 picks

I'M GONNA BE SO FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Oh i hope they blow it up after the 2014 season too.

Traded Steve Nash to the Los Angeles Lakers for a 2013 1st round draft pick, a 2013 2nd round draft pick, a 2014 2nd round draft pick and a 2015 1st round draft pick.

Spoiler

i'm not sure thats the lakers own pick

 

[Matrix]

Lakers should go into tank mode asap.

They truly suck and now with these injuries it would make even more sense. lol wait no draft pick... even better

Howard injury prone man child confirmed.

 

[Future PhaZe]

It's not too late for the Lakers to trade Dwight for Pierce, Garnett and Terry.

 

[Adam Blade]

Yeowch.

 

[CB3]

Kobe has finally given up

Glad they can laugh about their sorry ass team. Pathetic.

Kobe has been infected by Howard and Pringles smh
