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. :(

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
