Reminds me of the Suns, Warriors, Blazers of the late 2000’s. Potent offensive teams that would turn to mush when faced up against Bynum, Gasol & Odom.
Imagine what that trio would do to Green @center. |
I believe with all my heart the 2009 LA Lakers are perhaps one of the most underrated teams of all time. |
Imagine if Drew never got hurt with fluke injuries. Both injuries struck right at the time Drew was really starting to tap into his "Hall of Fame caliber" talent. Hybrid of Shaq and Duncan. |
What a prime, injury-free Bynum could have been for us is one of the biggest “what if’s” in recent Lakers history imo. The guy was on his way to becoming truly special. |

Tbh last relevant Christmas Day win was Kobe banking that 3 against Miami. Been a while since we’ve had something to cheer about!! |
This whole season has been about finding a way. Zu is the great. The. Great. Rondo is a damn Sith Lord. BI is ready. Zo is composing nice control of game pace. Hart on time. KCP’s effort on D. And Kuz playing unselfish. Free throws improving. The best game of the year, along with a taste of playoff intensity. Lakeshow did us proud. _________________ DEAR BASKETBALL

The bank 3 wasn't on Christmas, that year's Christmas was the foam finger loss to Cleveland. |

They're banking on their small ball lineup. If they make their threes, they win. Otherwise, they lose. I like our chances. _________________ #SellTheLakers |

This win shows that we're a deep team. I can't believe people thought Rondo was a bad signing. If anything we need to keep Rondo for a couple more years. _________________ Lakers 49ers Chargers Dodgers |

The Warriors games are always winnable. I can't remember the last decisive loss the Lakers had against them. In the past few years, the Warriors always have horrible shooting and if they win, it's only because they got hot and made a few shots in the final minutes. |

Length effort, and execution on Defense and securing the rebound. One and done mentality on D. Get the boards, push the pace, and do this till the whistle blows in the 4th. You out work a finesse team. _________________ DEAR BASKETBALL |

Yeah, that could be right. I thought there was a game where Curry was like 3-20 all game and made a couple at the very end too but I could be wrong. I just know they're always expected to win by blowout and then come out and throw airballs left and right. |

Draymond is not an All-Star anymore. Klay isn't playing like one either. |

Correct. It personally warms my heart to see Draymond this crappy. |
