Thunder just made 27-55 threes, most in team history.

We don’t wasn’t him, you took him fair and square!

Dubs just beat the Bucks 125 -111 in Beertown.
Even without Giannis...that's a nice win.

OT in Dallas

Bamba would be a solid addition and start him for 15-18mpg as part of a C rotation with Hayes and maybe DFS in a small ball lineup for 6-8mpg.

I agree.

whats the mood with Miami now that Jimmy is gone? Is their some relief?

Itll be interesting to see how Herro and Bam go--- I mean- for all intents and purposes- it was there team a few weeks ago- but now its really those 2 guys as the leaders.

Mood seems good but they are an avg team. Playing Boston without Herro didn’t help

Had a great time with my grandsons. Pappadeaux’s was great… a damn fun game… hated the way it ended but when you have absolutely no centers it’s really difficult to keep the other guys off the boards…

But it was a blast getting to hang with them and do sports. That’s what it’s about for me & them.

And now - they are looking into getting us tickets for the Lakers in April. Told them whatever they come up with - I’m in.

Good times. Seriously.

Watching LukaMagic was beautiful

Also, cut Shake/Cam/Wood and sign Jordan Goodwin full time

Normally, this source is not very trustworthy or valid in their basketball life reporting but I think this article is pretty close to the reality of the Western Knecht situation.

Lakers have a Dalton Knecht problem of their own making

Los Angeles will need to figure out where they go from here with the rookie sharpshooter...

He was sitting on the bench with the team tonight, not sure how much of a problem there is. He got in to town a bit late, so not active.

Solid effort player, liking what he brings. If they do make a roster spot for him, it might not be until very late in the season (same with Koloko), as they need to stretch that minimal space under the 2nd apron as far as they can.

Meh, wouldn't be the worst addition but I'm certainly not starting him over Hayes with the way he has played of late.

 

[shopson67]

Sounds like they don't want Williams back, despite saying they were eagerly welcoming him home with open arms. He didn't play tonight either.

He may be hoping. I'm hoping for better.

I don't think the Lakers are making a move at center any time soon. Need to wait to maximize their spending ability.

There's not gonna be any better. No one good under 12 mil is getting bought out. Just get a body and call it a day. All they need is someone with size in case Hayes goes down.

They'll continue to use their 2 way guys as depth until they need to secure their playoff roster. Not sure what the cutoff is for 2 way guys to convert to the 15 and be eligible? It seems they want to convert Koloko.

Since there is no great option, there's no need to rush. The longer they wait, the more they can stretch that available $1.6M.

I think DFS makes some sense, He played overseas this year and his season is complete.

Not a Len fan at all, and been there, done that with Bamba.

Who knows, maybe the Hornets are successful in challenging the canceled trade (ha ha, just kidding).
