We could have used some Rudy.

Rudy clearly is not the issue

we have 3 turnovers of the egregious variety; where Igoudala simply took the ball from B-Roy and twice when Steve Blake simply fell down with the ball.

He’s hurt – again. We let friggin’ Okur score his career high Monday night. It was brutal. Still…I like this team better since the Brawl and the 2 crazies in Artest and Jackson. I haven’t fully recovered.

Does Jack have a chronic habit of leaving his feet, finds he has no place to go and then throws the ball away? It’s annoying me.

As one of the few guys who didn't shortsightedly jump on the Jerryd Bayless bandwagon, I feel ...

the need to gloat a bit at this moment. It still baffles me that anyone thinks that Bayless could become a point guard. It’s just not in the cards, folks, since his skill set is that of an undersized shooting guard who hogs the ball by almost always looking for his own shot and ignoring others.

by AK1984 on Jan 14, 2009 5:20 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

That's all well and good, but

Way to jump the gun there, that wasn’t even close to the right moment.

Wait for him to dribble the ball off his foot while forcing a bad shot or sumthin’.

The opinion is fine and very well could be true, but the timing is puzzling.

You could also tell us Bowie was the wrong pick while you’re at it, he was just as much at fault in that half.

never will be? How the hell do you know this? can you see the future? After one terrible game? Without one off season to work on his game? Come on man!

Chill out and quite patting yourself on the back (might get that grade one shoulder seperation ;) )
Only time will tell and its far to soon to call. In a year or two try this again and maybe I will agree with you.

I got here late

I think I wasn’t the only one who worried about this game a lot more than the others.

This is what Philly did to Houston the other night, it seemed like. Just run run run and Houston couldn’t keep up.

Lotsa game left, but we need to slooooow it down, hope Philly shoots like they normally shoot from outside, and we gotta execute how we normally do. Just gotta get back to where both teams normally play! HOW they play, I mean.

WORSE COMES TO WORSE 3 and 1 on a east coast New Jack Swang ain’t bad.

But we're better suited for them

Outside Harris and VC, we can handle the rest of them easily enough.

No game is a gimme, but Philly’s style is troublesome for us still, until Oden can punish a team like that with his size— and we can’t rely on that.

Yay!! We're winning the second half!! 3-0!!

I now live in the land of Lakers. I witnessed first hand the collapse in Game 7, 2002. I have seen chubby Laker fans running around in the streets like headless chickens, and I have seen Rick Fox stuff his smug face with a NY steak. All these things I have seen with my own eyes, and I promise you, I will never forget.... I WILL NEVER FORGET!
