at least Lakers shutdown Klay Thompson in the 2nd half... from 27 to 11... LOL _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

The win last night is much more important than the loss tonight.

I think its safe to say Nick Young sucks balls. Offensively he takes kobe shots and makes nothing. Overdribbles, and has no defense whatsoever.
guy's been bad for so long... it's been safe to say he sucks for quite some time now. _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

Seriously though, this game is one of those "perfect storm" games, that happen from time to time.
Lakers were cold as a team...until the 4th. And, the Warriors were hot the ENTIRE game. And, when your defense is lacking, that just exacerbates matters.
Nick Young is like Shannon Brown in his last year with the Lakers. Has a big ego, very confident in his shot and will keep shooting. The key is to use him as a bench player. In this system he'll be a guy who can go for 30 one night and then 2-3 nights shoot 2-12. He's always been that guy. It will only be magnified in this system.
It'll be far better once he's a bench guy, and not a starter. I'm hoping MDA sees that eventually when Bryant is back.
Warriors clearly scouted us and more specifically the bench and Henry. Stopped everything we wanted to do, and we couldn't knock down shots while they were on fire. Now to see.how we adjust. That lineup with Pau, Williams, Young, Meeks, and Blake was a disaster. Blake can't guard Thompson, and.they abused that. Williams can't guard Lee, and they abused that. We kept Pau on the perimeter. Meeks with too many brain dead drives. Ugh, ugly game.

Iggy is a swiss army knife. Does a little bit of everything. _________________ "I don’t give a [expletive] what you say.
