did anyone see Gasol get posterized in that game? lol

Lakers are pathetic right now. At first I thought "well it's just the regular season, doesn't matter for the Lakers" but dang. Gasol is playing like a bitch.. Artest is playing awful and doesn't seem to give a damn about basketball(he immediately started promoting his newest mixtape after tonights game)... Bynum is straight up horrible, and Kobe continues to try too hard to put the team on his back.

think they make a serious push for Melo after this loss?

I love how Kobe never gets the blame if they lose. He goes 8-24 against Cleveland with 7 turnovers and it's "because he is trying too hard". Gasol put up 30 points and 20 boards last night, and he is playing like a bitch? :lol:

I don't see this team getting Carmelo. They have hardly any players that Denver could possibly want, compared to the other suitors.

LA is in trouble.

:lol:

The Lakers go through funks like this every year almost. They will be in the playoffs and we'll see what happens when the lights get brighter on them. I will say I'm worried about them having to face the Thunder though....

no no no....fug you!

I'm sure all this talk about this guy getting traded and that guy going is a distraction and at the end of the day, losing to the Cavs really is meaningless, but on the other hand, these guys are all over paid professionals and should be able to play through it. Disappointing, but certainly not the end of the world either. Let's talk when the real season starts.

I'm not judging off of one game. If you've been watching Lakers games recently, you'd see that Gasol is playing like a bitch..

oh, and I never said it wasn't Kobe's fault. it was, because he kept forcing shots when it clearly wasn't working. you can't blame him though, none of his teammates could make a shot either. the entire team is struggling right now.

To the Laker fans saying "its just regular season", we'll see how long you're saying that when your team doesnt have homecourt advantage against the Spurs, C's, Heat, & Bulls in the playoffs. Losses like these will kick in you in the ass later down the road. Without homecourt advantage LAST YEAR, the Lakers would not have won the title. Thats the main reason they got by Boston.

I think homecourt advantage was out a long time ago for them. If they don't make a change or their players don't wake up it wouldn't surprise me to see them knocked out in the first round.

Yeah that's what I originally intended to type.

If the Lake has to face the Thunder, with now significant roster improvement/play.

They will not win. :(

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
