Remember the Lakers supposedly devastating losing streak? Well, as it turns out, we have actually gained ground over the Clippers in the last 10 games (6-4 vs 5-5).

And our only blowout in the losing streak was against the Nuggets without LeBron, not against the Grizzlies.

Kind of wild how the opposing fans of the 2 clear best teams in the same conference are watching each other for sure. The Clippers arent in any Lakers fans heads, that's some made up drama that Balmer would pay the media to say though.

It's not like either team is the clear favorite at this point. A solid single addition could completely change things for either team over night.

Went to the game on Friday. In the same way that you can’t really get a sense of how dominant AD is on the court until you see him in person, I don’t think I really appreciated how much Rondos suckage pulls down the whole team. And it wasn’t just his ball stopping ball poundage... it was just really incompetent things like not catching passes, dribbling the ball out of bounds, unforced errors that just completely break the flow of the game for the worse.

He’s the guy who sucks and isn’t trying but still still just doesn’t give a (bleep). Seriously, the entitled attitude and indifferent body language makes everything exponentially worse. Stinks up the whole arena.

Rondo is a +/- negative 8 so far off the bench when he's leading the 2nd unit without LeBron on the floor.

I was looking for Rondo but I can't find him because Caruso was overshadowing him.

That's also pretty close to AD's +/- without Lebron I believe.

Makes sense.
He plays most of his minutes with Lebron.

Top 3 lineups with Lebron in minutes played:
1. 253 mins
2. 179 mins
3. 35 mins

Top 3 lineups without Lebron in minutes played:
1. 17 mins
2. 16 mins
3. 15 mins

Jared Dudley, Quinn Cook and Troy Daniels show that the Lakers might have more depth than previously thought in two huge, undermanned wins

Quote:
The Lakers will need guys who aren’t playing a ton to step up at various points this year. Quinn Cook, Troy Daniels and Jared Dudley did just that during an injury-plagued road trip.

VLF is on Ballmer's payroll. I wouldn't be surprised if he tries to turn Yinoma next.

I'd like to see Green and Bradley benched and Cook and Daniels inserted as starters, as those guys REALLY hustle and seem to make a higher percentage of their shots!

Defensively, it is not even close who can keep up with starter level talent. Cook and Daniels are better shooters and definitely brought energy, but over an extended period I question if they can play defense.

That said, it is good we have 3 point shooting. We will need it.

Actually I agree - the Clippers ARE in a lot of Laker fans' heads. We know how fun it'll be to see KL and PG walk off the court in disgust as we end their title dreams. Deep down inside this makes Laker fans happy.

And the Lakers are in every Clipper fan's head too. This is where we have balance in the universe. They know deep down how their futile dreams will be crushed, they also know they're not LA's team and never will be. Deep down inside it makes them sad.
