I would just like to say fuck the clippers, thank you.

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Call me crazy, but I still think the Lakers can be a better team than they've been the past 2 games.

The key will be defense in this game, if CP3 is allowed to run wild then we can call it a night pretty early.

While I agree with this assessment, I think it's going to be awhile. Kobe needs to get his legs back under him, X needs to do the same and when Kelly and Young get back, they will need to as well.

I think we won't really see this teams full potential (such as it is) until sometime around late December or early January.

As for tonight, I just hope the Clips don't beat us by 48 again.

Definitely Trojan, on the Kobe#40 thread I said it would be a process. Doesn't mean I can't hope for them to get their act together a little sooner.

If they were smart.....they'd start Price and let him chase CP around.


Rather than Lin.

 

[DJ Fieri]

My prediction: The Clippers win, 105-92.

Hoping to make it through some of the game. Took a red eye last night to NY. I don't sleep on planes so I've been up for a long time. I don't think I'd ever make it through the later games if I lived out here. Shit starts late.

Motivated Pau looks pretty good in Chicago. Too bad we rarely saw that the last few years. Big piece for the Bulls if he stays healthy and motivated.

Yes, but he also might play well defensively for a game or two, but would follow that with 4-5 games where he no showed on defense.

It's early. But, I wish the big guy the best.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Reports are Rose twisted his ankle.


SMH.

I think the constant trade rumors finally caught up to him. I understand that trade rumors are just part of the life of a professional and that they are well compensated for it. But, the Pau trade rumors reached the point of the ridiculous.

He was my favorite Laker when he was here and I started wanting them to trade him just so we wouldn't have to hear them anymore.

You seem pessimistic.

Gasol was the backbone of that team.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Lakers are up, 3-0!!!!

Well said brother!

[DJ Fieri]

That didn't last long.

 

[Retroram52]

I'd want see Jordon Farmar.

 

[Vitamike]

So what do you all think of those unis?






11-6 Clips

 

[Retroram52]

We can't keep up with the Clips pace.
