Game Thread GAME# 47: LAKERS @ BLAZERS - JANUARY 25, 2017 - WEDNESDAY, 7:30 PM (PDT), ESPN

[KingSpeed]

Team record.

What's crazy is by end of season, our record is good and CJ and Dame both make All NBA. We just never have a good record in January.

 

[Cippy91]

Team record.

I think it's bullshit. Not Lillards fault he is surrounded by bench players minus CJ

I'm just not sure I buy Utah having 2 All Stars. That's my problem with her picks. Utah would probably trade Hayward for Lillard.

Why does it matter? He'll probably get 2nd or 3rd team All-NBA (which is the real honour) and a week of rest.

Hear hear

 

[KingSpeed]

Aminu to the basket!

It doesn't at the end of the day, just annoying to see him constantly snubbed

 

[KingSpeed]

Ingram's arms are freakishly long.

 

[MarAzul]

Geez, Luke Walton has voice like Al Attles. Sounds just like him.

 

[KingSpeed]

I like Turner as a starter.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Meyers setting a screen at the 3 when the ball is in the paint against 3 LA defenders.

I've seen it all.

 

[Scalma]

i really liked what Vonleh did in his first shift.

 

[Blazinaway]

guys, been out of town for a few weeks and not keeping up much, what's happened to Harkless? Is he nursing an injury or just in the doghouse?

 

[Nikolokolus]

It cuts both ways. He probably got put in based on team record himself in his first go around.

 

[Scalma]

Plums is great, but those reverse dunks kill me. And he's not great in the paint, except alley-oops and the occasional block.

We need Noel. Bad.

The problem I'm having with Noel is what happens when we go up against some of the bugger centers in the west like cousins, gasol, Jordan? Noel would get abused.

 

[Cippy91]

That's the dumb part. Numbers were less but team was winning so he got in. Think he averaged like 20 at the time.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Oof. Our 3 pt. Defense is shite.

 

[KingSpeed]

If your leading scorer comes off the bench, he should be starting.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

More injury. But he did get benched before he was hurt.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

Get Meyers off the floor and don't put him back in.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Damn gRizzlies won. Gasol clinched All Star team with career high 42 points.

Coaches picks were submitted yesterday.

 

[Nikolokolus]

This is a terrible lineup.

 

[Jade Falcon]

I HATE YOU SO MUCH MEYERS LEONARD!

 

[Cippy91]

Meyers gets paid to do one fucking thing. Shoot the ball well. Doesn't do it. Jesus

 

[Scalma]

I love how we sent layman to the dleague while connaughton gets minutes on an NBA court.

Also, great start Meyers!

 

[KingSpeed]

I HATE YOU SO MUCH MEYERS LEONARD!

He's fine. Just missed a few shots.

 

[Jesus Christ Son of God]

Jesus

Yes?

 

[Darkwebs]

If your leading scorer comes off the bench, he should be starting.

Not if you're tanking.

 

[Scalma]

He's fine. Just missed a few shots.

They're wide open looks. A three point shooter should knock down half of those. Also, God forbid Meyers ever has two good games in a row.

 

[Nikolokolus]

God, I hope I never see that particular lineup again. A fucking seive.
