Game Thread: Los Angeles Lakers at Houston Rockets 11/7/13 | 9:30pm TNT

Im not trying to be mean. But why would Dwight want to stay with the Lakers. I know hes overrated and Kobe + Harden deserve better than a big man who cant make free throws. But going to Houston was the best basketball decision for him. If Houston wants a ring they need to trade Asik quickly.

Nice win for the Lakers.

Huge mistake passing to Howard on that earlier out of bounds play, and Harden has got to learn to stop trying to iso at the top of the key for 10 plus seconds.

Hardens been clutch before doing that.

YEEEEAAAHH!!! FUUUCCKK YOU DWIGHT!!!

GO LAKERS!!

Hardens been clutch before doing that.

He did it a lot last season as well and it just is not very efficient when he tries to pull it towards the end of a close game.

Have fun with Hack-A-Howard all season long, Rockets fans!!

 

[Cobiemonster]

lol how do you give up a game winning shot to Steve Blake what is this

 

[wildturkey]

First time I've watched Houston this year. Any reason Jones and Motiejunas,didn't play? McHale is gonna burn his team out if he's going with such a short rotation this early in the season. He played like 7 guys the whole game

Motie doesn't play much defense or rebound. From everything I've seen of him, he likes to sit at the three point line and shoot bricks.

I have no clue with Jones.

Wish they could have somehow flipped them and kept T-Rob. His energy and athleticism would be a nice asset to have.

That's Harden. Even in OKC, that iso stepback was his go to move in the clutch. He hits it more times than he misses though. Running iso is a big risk however

 

[Kold]

Insane finish, but well worth it to get that fool the sick look...

Yep, I enjoy when they play with so much effort. I'd rather look towards the draft, but they're enjoyable to watch when they play with effort.

I cannot believe Blake made a game winning 3... I am in shock..

You'd think Jones would help out the spacing a lot more so McHale doesn't have to play Asik and Howard so much. He must really be in the doghouse or something.

I am not suprised. Hardens defense is horrible. As much as I like the guy

 

[besaesa]

This game gave me panic attacks the entire night but im glad we got the w.

Gotta be something between him and the coaches. He has been pretty solid every time I've seen him.

I just can't stand watching players run iso for an extended period of time at all. I have this philosophy that if you are going to stand in one spot with the ball in one hand and your dick in the other for 5+ seconds you might as pass it around a little bit and see if the team can't get an open shot. Can always run him off an off ball screen to get the ball back if they are trying to deny him.

Leave Blake alone now... He is a solid BACKUP PG, he showed it today... Nash on the other hand...

 

[wlk3]

Oh yeah, Lakers got me 3500 vbucks to... Fuck off Dwight... But nice game for my fantasy team...
