Game Thread GAME# 9: LAKERS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 2, 2017 - THURSDAY, 7:30 (PDT), TNT

We have the talent to be good, right? This game is making me lose heart.

 

[TBpup]

Nurk doesn't go through him that's a fucking no call

If Dame rotated over, was set and outside the arc, we would want that call.

 

[Five Second Violation]

Good play guys.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Yeah, it's just terrible all around play plus the refs giving the team with the momentum all the benefit-of-the-doubt calls. Typical NBA stuff.

Yep. This is seriously unbalanced refereeing no doubt. Such an NBA thing to do. Sway calls to the popular team. It’s been this way forever. Gets WAY worse when they’re also trying to promote an individual player (Ball)

If the Organization really cares about winning, I think it's time we really consider moving on from Stotts.

Does anybody really think a Stott's led team will ever be better than about what it is now?

 

[LuckyShot]

Stotts is fucking terrible.

We have talent

 

[LuckyShot]

Swanigan got hammered. Dude jumped on his back and prevented him from going up.

 

[julius]

"we want to get off to a strong start".

 

[The Professional Fan]

This is a rigged game

 

[TBpup]

Biggie really struggles to finish in traffic. He wasn't close to getting that shot off. He's going to have to learn to get his shot of like Z-Bo.

 

[Chris Craig]

How much of this is refs controlling the game

How much of this is Stotts coaching

How much of this is just uninspired play

 

[kingslayer]

This is embarrassing.

 

[LuckyShot]

This is a rigged game

And we've done everything possible to make it easy on them on top of it.

 

[julius]

Pretty awesome that they can make a sub-par team look like golden state.

 

[LuckyShot]

How much of this is refs controlling the game

How much of this is Stotts coaching

How much of this is just uninspired play

Equal parts of all of the above.

 

[SynTax]

Swanigan needs to learn to just go up. He pump fakes every time in the pain.

 

[Mr. Robot]

wtf is Swanigan doing

 

[TBpup]

3 attempts by Biggie and he has yet to even get the ball out of his hands. Finally gets a trip to the FT line but this is one of the reasons he fell. Meanwhile Kuzma....

 

[LuckyShot]

No fast break points because you generally have to play defense to get those.

 

[calvin natt]

Watching Swanigan is painful. Can we stop blowing summer league out of proportion yikes

 

[Nikolokolus]

This is a rigged game

It really isn't. The Lakers have been the aggressors since the start of the second quarter. Driving into the lane and playing more physically than the other team will almost always lead to forcing the refs to call a game that leans in your favor. This isn't some screw job by the refs, this is a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

 

[The Professional Fan]

This is the most rigged shit I’ve maybe ever seen

National TV

L*kers

Ball

The early non continuation calls

The horrible calls after

The announcers

This is exactly why the NBA has been and will be wrestling

 

[SIeepwalker]

If will lose this Stotts can go fuck himself. I've been defending him for years and I'm done.

 

[TBpup]

0 fast break points.....with a team this young that can run. Just philosophy. Don't run, don't play defense, switch everything even when you don't need to. That is all coaching.

 

[LuckyShot]

Great play by Turner and Pat. Honestly I feel like Pat bailed out Turner lol.

 

[BigGameDamian]

This is embarrassing

 

[Chris Craig]

Man Lakers trying to get piggy back rides from Biggie

The refs fucking over the Sacramento Kings in the WCF finals against the Lakers wins that honor. This game isn't even in the top 10,000.
