Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers, Dec 22, 2009 7:30 PM PST
If you're tuning in tonight to see Shaun Livingston or Mike Wilks, I've got bad news for you. They're gone.
Not Brittany Murphy gone. Just waived by the Oklahoma City Thunder today to make room for Eric Maynor, whom they acquired in a trade from the Utah Jazz. All will be missed.
Drink tonight upon the following.
- Any discussion of Russell Westbrook or James Harden being from LA.
- A made three by the Lakers.
- Any mention of Shaquille O'Neal.
- Any mention of LeBron James.
- The word "Stu."
That last one will be music to my ears.

WELCOME BACK STU! I didn’t hate Hot Rod just his announcing.

Good to have Stu back.
I wasn’t all that fond of Hot Rod’s announcing either. For the 50th anniversary it was cool that he was able to do some.
2009 NBA Champions L.A Lakers
2009 NBA Finals MVP Kobe Bryant
Yup
and I think many here feel the same. Half of our comments were about him Or Magic’s commercial.

Wow
Przybill from the Blazers got hurt in the first qtr of the game and it looks like it’s his knee. How much worst can it get for this team? That is terrible.

trade Andrew while his value is still high
trade him for a good, young, defensive minded center. I think we’d be much better with that kind of center.
He's still young
and he can improve

Said this so many times
Anyone who wants to trade Bynum for anyone not named Howard is completely out of their mind.

you dont think we'd be better with a tough minded, defensive center who actually tries all the time?

Tell me who this tough center is, and I'll gladly comply.

well they wouldnt do hte trade, but I'd like Perkins
by desecrator09 on Dec 22, 2009 8:05 PM PST up reply actions
Yeah, I want a center
Who turns it over on a ridiculous amount of his possessions, is overrated because he’s in a defensive system that maximizes his skills, and is not even remotely close to the offensive threat that Bynum is.
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
he isnt overrated defensively
he was a great defender before Timbadoe came over. Your dumb if you think this. He always tries and has a great toughness and defensive instincts about him that I like. We dont need him to be a hugh offensive threat anyways.
by desecrator09 on Dec 22, 2009 8:12 PM PST up reply actions
Except he habitually makes horrible mistakes on both ends of the floor
With his over-the-top physicality.
And in any case, the Lakers are currently first in the league in defensive efficiency. We don’t need more defensive players. If anything, we need our offense (currently 15th in the league in efficiency) to get better.
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
lol thats such BS
he hardly ever makes dumb decisions. And Bynum is hurting our offense currently.
by desecrator09 on Dec 22, 2009 8:20 PM PST up reply actions
Yeah, being among the league leaders
In technicals and flagrants is something I want on my team.
And no, Bynum is not hurting our offense. You tend not to do so when you shoot 58% from the field. Our big problem is that we have no one that can shoot threes consistently. If you had bothered to read any of Dex’s material in the past few weeks you’d have noticed.
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
Bynum missing cheap shots and being a complete no show in his last few games,
isnt huritng us? He will sometimes not show up at all on defense. You’ll never see Perkins be a no show
by desecrator09 on Dec 22, 2009 8:24 PM PST up reply actions
Yeah, let's trade away Bynum
Because he sucked for the last couple games. Let’s ignore his previous two years and the first month of the season. So tempting to trade away huge talents with gigantic ceilings, and so tempting to kill the future cornerstone of our franchise.
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
i doubt he'll reach that ceiling

Yeah, so his improvement from his rookie year never happened

look man, im just not a big fan of him as you
I think we overpaid him and I dont think he’ll be as great as he can be because he doesnt have the will to be. He’ll be a solid guy but thats not enough, given the fat ass contract we gave him.
by desecrator09 on Dec 22, 2009 8:34 PM PST up reply actions
Yeah, we should have given him that contract
Instead of waiting for him to become a RFA, in which we’d have to deal with someone giving him a max offer.

I know who
Tyrus Thomas! lol… I just can’t help it. There is a lot of centers who play harder than Bynum. Not all of them are realistic in trades but I would take Noah from the Bulls.

Heres my issue with Byno, it seems like he still hasnt realized
how effin tall and long (no homo) he is. If he would just man up and stop the finesse game he would have more minutes and get easier buckets. We’re paying him off potential!!!!!!

I can't believe PJ isn't watching this
Westbrook is just blowing by Fisher like he isn’t even there. Put Shannon in there

Shannon wouldnt do much better
Westbrook is too fast

he can actually move his feet, unlike old man Fisher

Fish is a sold defensive PG against most PGs
Westbrook has arguably the quickest first step in the league

I don't think shannon is gonna defend any better than Fish.

Where is the f*cking technical on Ibaka? I know its the endgame, but he threw an elbow at Artest.
It had intentions. Whatevs.
Glad they didn't call it
You don’t want to win a game like that.

And this is where everyone cries "foul!" and PJ's philosophy comes in...
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.

Definitely give up the two
Than help and leave a three-point shooter open.

Is he going to get waved by Utah
How long do we have to wait to pick him up.
I’m not sure if he fits into the Tri though
He was waived by OKC
To make room in the roster.
We’re free to sign him as we please.

We played pretty poorly
In the games leading up to the Boston game and the Cleveland game last year and they ended pretty well. This team knows how to turn up the intensity when it’s necessary.

Ugh...
that was a rough one, and I didn’t play…
Shaquille O'Neal: "Tell him Shaq doesn’t respond to juvenile delinquents without a college degree. Tell him to get his degree, and we can talk. In the meantime, he should call me Dr. Shaq because I’m working on my PhD." (Referring to 17-year-old rookie Andrew Bynum, who compared himself to Shaq…except that he can make free throws.)

Pau Kasol
sounds to me like the James Worthy pronunciation haha
"Just by the aura of D.J. Mbenga being there, the shot missed."
The problem is Team Defense
As much as I want to blame an individual player like Fisher and Bynum this team better improve defensively. It’s a team sport. Kobe gambles too much, Gasol needs to man up, Bynum needs to help Fisher more because he gets burned so much but it’s Bynum and Gasol’s responsibility to defend the paing and rebound the fuckin ball. No complaints on Artest. as far as LO see Gasol comments.

I thought they were the best defensive team in the league...
It’s easy to see the glaring deficiencies when they play poorly, but they are way up there in defense.
good point
I have a tendency to be too hard on this team. FYI…that is why one of my past screen pics was chicken little. : )

I do too, and actually would have been there with you
Had I not read one of Dexter’s posts earlier today (showing defensive rate, etc).
Now, it still doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try and counter some of the holes that were obvious today; not getting back on defense, offensive rebounds (again), quick guards getting to the rack, etc.
I saw that...
I thought the same thing. But I try to seperate stats from what I see on TV. But those stats don’t lie. But you are 100% right.
