Spitune called for holding again on Swaggy.

 

[Retroram52]

SWAGGY!!!

 

[Retroram52]

WTH Sacre. Take it to the hole dude!!

 

[Retroram52]

Henry should sit and heal up. His knee and wrist are a mess.

 

[Retroram52]

Swaggy has a career high tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

Nash is done for the night. Typical. Plays a couple of minutes, his body quits, and off he goes. WTH?

 

[Retroram52]

I don't know how many times we have to go through with this Nash. He can't play for any length of time. It is sort of like a rent-a-player. Oops, my 25 minutes are up. Sorry, can't play anymore. Nerve root irritation. Give me a break.

 

[Retroram52]

And frikin Don'tknowi looks lost as usual.

 

[Retroram52]

Are we going to give up 130 tonight?

 

[Retroram52]

I think it is going to be a 130 night.

 

[Retroram52]

No D whatsoever.

 

[Retroram52]

First class ass-whoopin'

 

[Retroram52]

On we go.

 

[Retroram52]

Some dumbass Blazer dude trying to necktie Marshall. Freakin' idiot is going to hurt somebody. He gets a flagrant and Leonard gets ejected. Shortest garbage time ever.

 

[Retroram52]

Kelly with the dunk.

 

[Retroram52]

Almost a 130 night but not quite. Team Tank was on tonight.

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

25-49

 

[OregonDucks]

with the Rockets losing and Warriors winning this was a huge win for the Blazers. And a win over LA no matter what their season is like feels good to beat them. Gotta beat them while they are down.

Interesting comments from Kaman after the game last night re: D'Antoni:


"It's a frustrating situation for a lot of people," said Kaman, who has consistently expressed frustration with his role. "I think Coach, for as much heat as he takes, I don't think he has had a fair shot at it either with all of the injuries. Now people may not agree with the way he does things or his style of play, (but) it's not about that."


Not exactly an endorsement, but a pretty professional critique on his part. Lots of respect for Kaman. While he's been frustrated with his role, he has been a consummate professional, has shown up to play virtually every game and has performed well when he's had the opportunity. I doubt it happens, but I wouldn't mind seeing the Lakers keep him around and see what he can contribute to a healthier team next season.
