Non-Lakers Game Thread for 1/26
On TNT: We have the hated leprechauns going up against future Laker Ryan Anderson and the Magic (Howard will play too). That is at 5 pm PST. Then, Marc Gasol returns to LA to face Lob City at 7:30 PM.
Oh, I need to fill up this space with more words before my fanpost can be published? How will I ever do that? I mean, I can't think of anything to type to fill up this space. Damn writer's block. Well... maybe something will come to me...
As always, a poll too.

no reason to ruin a perfectly good double-double

Yeah,
I thought cldpc said there was a party in here.

Woj spitting hot fire
The NBA has the Hornets releasing statements saying that they were “close” on getting an extension done with Eric Gordon. Congratulations.
jajaja
A lot different from the last one so far. 32-16 Magic after one, C's fans back to blow it up! atm

JJ Reddick has improved immensely with his dribble penetration...
went right to the rim on one drive and scored in the second and then drove and threw up a nice alley for Dwight to flush.

How the hell did the C's come back in this game?
wow.
we aren't winning anything this year man - BlueXfalcon (January 22, 2012)
I stopped watching it, but my guess is the Magic kept shooting 3's and missing...
they still shoot a bunch of 3’s even with big leads and let teams back in a lot of the time.
GET TO THE RIM HEAT (and SKY)! ATTACK THE PAINT!
that is crazy.
Just stepped away to watch First 48, came back, and bam! C’s are leading.

yeah, I left right at 52-25 mark up there with my comment lol.

C's 8-9, they are still old as can be, but with signs of life with some wins, they probably won't blow it up...
they probably should while they can get something for any of the big three.
GET TO THE RIM HEAT (and SKY)! ATTACK THE PAINT!
me too, keep it together Danny, they should have blew it up last year lol

When the Staples center is turned into the Clippers home court are the Lakers' banners covered?

awesome. I don't think I have ever been to a Clippers game.

They do turn off the spotlights that shine on them for Laker home games.
They would turn on a different set of spotlights… but….

Clips are killing them, I guess I might go away and find out that the Grizz came back lol

Will the Lakers be wearing some sort of throwbacks this year also?
Probably will be something like the old Minneapolis uniforms. Or the ones they wore last year vs. NY and Boston.


I like the bottom pic unis because they remind me of the time I grew up watching them in the 80's

Yeah, I prefer the older forum blue and gold jerseys.

I always wonder how players like Deandre Jordan, Ibaka and players that become
really good, come from. I mean, how do they get missed by so many teams? It just seems that they come out of nowhere. I would guess that once they come into the NBA they take advantage and improve their game. The Spurs are good at getting those type of players. Or at least they develop players really well. I’m trying to remember when was the last time the Lakers had such luck with a player. Ariza? Van Exel? Oh well, inquiring minds want to know.
we aren't winning anything this year man - BlueXfalcon (January 22, 2012)
Spurs do have really good scouts
Manu and Parker both in the 2nd round I think.
Best player the Lakers drafted after the 1st round is probably Michael Cooper (3rd round in ’78). Or Van Exel.
shit "3rd round" didn't even know that existed.
btw..love the avatar. Seinfeld is like Lucy, I can watch re-runs anytime. Hilarious. Happy Festivus!!!
we aren't winning anything this year man - BlueXfalcon (January 22, 2012)
They had 7+ rounds until like '88
Which is crazy http://www.basketball-reference.com/draft/NBA_1978.html
And happy Festivus to you too!
Other Lakers employees who will be unemployed at end of the month include scouts Irving Thomas (10 years with the team), Adam Filippi (10 years), Gary Boyson (six), Gene Tormohlen (43) and Kevin Grevey (10).

second round picks
that lack offensive game, but have great athleticism and instincts.

LOL, and I also thought I double posted somehow for a moment there
GET TO THE RIM HEAT (and SKY)! ATTACK THE PAINT!
the pink and orange combo was a bad choice back in the day for the Floridians lol...
the others look ok although the Bobcats will be wearing another throwback that is pure high school look.

When did Marc Gasol and Rudy Gay get traded to the Washington Generals?
Those Memphis ABA jerseys are too funny. They should make all the D-League teams wear jerseys like this.
