2677192, Klay taking a spiked bat to the Bulls
Posted by mrhood75, Mon Oct-29-18 08:00 PM
He's got 34 points and there's 3 minutes to go in the first half.

Also, busting out of his 3s slump but hit 10(?!?!?!) so far. He'll break Steph's single game record at this pace.

But since they're up by 35 right now, he'll certainly sit the fourth quarter.
2677193, Bulls getting embarrassed

2677194, Fucking hell at 92 points in the first half
Posted by mrhood75, Mon Oct-29-18 08:10 PM
We really might have a shot at scoring 100 in a half at some point this season.
2677195, Klay letting his nuts hang, Warriors got 92 at the half?

2677196, Bulls have been pathetic all year defensively. Injuries aren't an excuse
Posted by RandomFact, Mon Oct-29-18 08:21 PM
for *this*

Fred deserves the hot seat by mid season if the defense doesn't improve.

Once, when he was 19, he got a bad haircut and had to wear a hat for a month. But he prevailed.

2677242, I love searching for Lakers fans who love Lonzo on Twitter...
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue Oct-30-18 07:55 AM
during their games.

I dig how they bend reality to fit their worlds. "Lonzo should be in the game now."
"Why isn't Luke playing Zo?"
"Take Rondo out and put Zo in!"

Nigga be a cool -12 and shit.

I'm gonna start finding these "journalists" who think he's good now too.

2677250, Rondo is a ball-stopper in what is supposed to be a free flowing offense
Posted by ThaTruth, Tue Oct-30-18 08:33 AM
2677251, rondo played 32 minutes. tf u mad 4
Posted by bshelly, Tue Oct-30-18 08:37 AM
2677269, You got it backwards. I’m laughing at the mad Lakers fans.
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue Oct-30-18 09:23 AM
And wrong hot take hoops bloggers.
2677287, fair.
Posted by bshelly, Tue Oct-30-18 11:11 AM
they should be playing lonzo, because they aren't going to be that good this year and they should prioritize development. but, yeah, rondo's a better player than him right now.
2677256, The Lonzo love fest is comical and sad
Posted by Beezo, Tue Oct-30-18 08:46 AM
2677279, ^^

laughing and crying lol
2677281, the Lonzo hate is more comical, now that his dad seems to have chilled...
Posted by ThaTruth, Tue Oct-30-18 10:33 AM
I don't know why people want to hate on Lonzo so bad.

He came in getting triple-doubles last year so we know he can play. The one big knock was his shooting which he seems to have improved and his defense is better.

His overall numbers are down because he trying to learn how to play off the ball more being on the floor with Lebron and Rondo but overall he's been fine.
2677283, Correct

2677284, Saying someone is not good isn’t hate if they’re not good.
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue Oct-30-18 10:44 AM
I remember people getting mad whenI said he’s essentially Elfrid Payton.

That’s not a diss.

Might even be generous.
2677286, You guys overrate your players, though
Posted by Stadiq, Tue Oct-30-18 11:03 AM

Pointing that out isn't hate.

Didn't a lot of dudes in here predict a top 3 seed and Conf finals? Or at least a top 5 finish? lol

I mean...

You guys act like you are 1 season away from a chip and 4 all-stars.




2677289, Or it's possible that both the love and hate groups are comical.
Posted by Frank Longo, Tue Oct-30-18 11:22 AM
That Lonzo is neither the type of uber-talent he was marketed as in college, nor is he some obvious detriment to his team.

He's not the solution to the Lakers' problems, and he's not the cause of them.

He's got clear upside that makes him worth developing, but he also doesn't seem like the next Jason Kidd like the media/some fans paint him to be.

Maybe he never provides #2 overall pick value, but I think he provides obvious value in general.

... am I allowed to be in neither group, or will I be removed from the board for not choosing a side in the Lonzo Warz?
2677306, we've got 3 other young players that are pretty good but nobody...
Posted by ThaTruth, Tue Oct-30-18 12:53 PM
wants to talk about them lol
2677262, The team has lost every game Rondo has played
Posted by DJR, Tue Oct-30-18 09:10 AM
And went 2-1 without him. That might be part of it.
2677270, I’m sure it has nothing to do with the teams they played right?
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue Oct-30-18 09:24 AM
The Suns & the Nuggets forgetting how to play in the 4th quarter.
2677303, I’m not blaming Rondo.....some might though

2677531, no Lonzo hot takes today huh?
Posted by ThaTruth, Thu Nov-01-18 08:48 AM
2677553, you guys really going to get gassed over every little win?
Posted by Stadiq, Thu Nov-01-18 11:21 AM

They barely, b a r e l y, beat the Mavericks. Even at that, it took Wesley Mathews forgetting how defense is played to do it.

As far as your boy, what did he do in the last 5-6 other than a rebound?

Did 2 of his 4 points come in that last 6 and I missed it?

And he nearly fucked it all up by not checking Barea.


Cmon man.


This is the point- you guys are far too hyped about your young guys. This isn't to say that they are bad, but you guys need to come back to reality a little.

Or its going to be a long season.

2677579, I’m speaking on Lonzo specifically...
Posted by ThaTruth, Thu Nov-01-18 01:04 PM
he had a solid game, nothing more nothing less.

12, 7 & 4 with zero turnovers, 4 for 6 from the field, 3 for 3 from 3.
2677209, While hitting the 14 3s, Klay dribbled the ball only five times
Posted by mrhood75, Mon Oct-29-18 10:13 PM
That’s insane.
2677218, Try-Hard Jimmy hit a dagger 3...to be fair

2677225, Fultz coming. Overrated young guards beware.

2677226, SMH...it's like the previous two games ain't happen
Posted by Basaglia, Mon Oct-29-18 10:58 PM
and this game wasn't even that good.
2677233, His best game as a pro. It’s about getting better with each game right?
Posted by Beezo, Tue Oct-30-18 05:29 AM
2677239, Well this was clearly about playing the Hawks.

2677243, ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Posted by bshelly, Tue Oct-30-18 07:57 AM
he had 6 points before garbage time, and he was -2 in a game we won by 23.
2677227, i cant believe lebron passed to kuzma there
Posted by BrooklynWHAT, Mon Oct-29-18 11:01 PM
like i can cause that's just what he does. but its your responsibility as an all-timer to take that shot after you've bled out the clock. not a 2nd year player.
2677248, i'm sorry, have you missed the lat 15 years?

Posted by bshelly, Tue Oct-30-18 12:25 PM
always better to take the title from the champ rather than win it because he retired.
2677297, beggars can't be choosers. Bucks need a nice playoff run this year
Posted by Deebot, Tue Oct-30-18 12:37 PM
by any means necessary.
2677247, Even in a W, Thibs is so infuriating
Posted by Marauder21, Tue Oct-30-18 08:20 AM
He's a STRICT disciplinarian who requires everyone buy into his vision of what a basketball team is and how it operates, except when Derrick Rose comes in, he can fuck around and dribble for 19 seconds, maybe force a pass or maybe jack up a long 2, who cares.
