I said the other month the Royce White shit wouldn't end well cuz he was being very difficult to deal with, and that was me talking shit little bit... I didn't know it was gonna end THIS bad.... it's an absolute first world fucking problem, which is why I have no sympathy whatsoever for the kid
I was all over Facebook posting Nash and Sacre back start of the season, two guys from not just Canada but Vancouver playing together on a team like the Lakers, it's just awesome to see as a Vancouverite. My younger brother remembers playing Sacre in high school numerous times, said Sacre was awkward as fck and had a lot of growing into his body to do, he had no idea how to use his body most of the time, and that was a similar scouting report for him in Gonzaga as well, a big strong specimen who was a weak rebounder for his size.
But I seen all the Laker games he played in start of the season and he looked solid for a big man rookie, he was a little flustered at times but looked good, was hitting the boards, throwing his body around, and hell he was even making a few buckets a game not just putback garbage 'round the hoop types either, I'm talkin like little 10 to 12 foot jumpers.
Gonna be watching tonight's game for sure, I hope he brings it and reps for the City

-seems like Garnett got under Carmelo's skin during the Knicks and Celtics game on Monday night. 'Melo was looking for Garnett at the Celtics locker room and at the Boston team bus after KG said some words to him.
Most people know that Garnett is a big trash talker during games, being a motor mouth often.
-wonder what KG said to Carmelo that made him very agitated. Did he insult his Mama?
Both players talked over the phone after the game. They have since cleared the air, resolved their conflict.

so funny....such a horrible shot-block....Back in the day, a good block was considered to be one in which you gained possession of the ball....nowadays, it's "cool" to try and put it into the 10th row into the stands....Howard could have easily pulled that down instead of swatting it.

I was a pre-teen when The Kid got drafted, so I pretty much watched him his whole career.
My favorite KG version was when him and Marbury were tearing it up in Minnesota, for you youngins in here that only see Garnett as a decently productive big with a big mouth, you guys oughtta know that this guy was in beast mode when he was in his prime.
It's a damn shame that You Tube you can only find videos like this one where they just cut right to his finishes and dunks, I mean you had to see this guy play on a nightly basis like I did growing up to appreciate his game..
Other than Shaq, growing up watching the game, I don't remember anyone averaging an easier 20/10 than The Kid, like an eyes closed type of thing, just made it look so easy

yo bballguy & jonwon We all fcked up on the MIP award, Jrue Holiday has that almost on lock with his consistently good play. I'm sittin here watchin the Nets and Philly game, and the guy is just I mean, fck he's good...
Philly got 20 points right now and he's been involved in every single one of them, either by scoring or assisting. And he's at it every single game, nicely and under control, just making things happen like clock work.

G-spec: Yeah the D'antoni thing I said it from the beginning, with Lakers roster offense wasn't gonna be a problem, it was defense... and D'antoni is an offensive coach everyone knows that, I still think Jerry Sloan would have been the best man for the job... and I say that fully knowing that Phil Jackson was absolutely never an option no matter what the Jimbo Buss says. It's obvious he only asked Phil if he was interested to avoid fully pissing off the Laker fanbase, he had absolutely no intention of giving Phil the job at all
and Last night that was the first Lakers game I seen in full, and from what I saw when Howard gets double teamed in the post and has to kick it out to someone hovering midrange or 3 point line, his passes are atrocious, it's like half bounce half direct pass, totally shit to the point where the shooter can never get a clean catch to shoot right away, he has to swing it almost instantly even if he was wide open when Howard made the pass... has he been passing it out of post double teams like this all season ?
I agree with G-Spec 100%. Jerry Sloan would be the best coach for the Lakers. D'Antoni is just not a good fit for this team because he cannot make a team better defensively. He's good for offense, terrible for defense.
Bottom line, the person who should get the most blame for the Lakers' dismal season so far is not the coach, not the players, it's that moron Jimbo Bus. Jim Bus hired the wrong coach for this team. He made a bad hiring decision.
Why hire a coach who has a philosophy of fast tempo, 7 seconds or less, offense for a veteran team with an aging superstar in Kobe? This team doesn't have the legs to play offense and defence well at the same time.
If you have different types of star players in Kobe, Gasol, Howard, Nash, and MWP playing together, you need a coach who can bring out the strengths of these players.
D'Antoni puts Gasol on the 3 point arc to shoot threes?? -putting a player in the wrong position on the court is not gonna help the guy's game improve.
Jimbo Bus is responsible for messing up the Lakers' chances for the post season big time. Heck, he should consider a career change to drive a bus in LA, instead of being an NBA team executive. Quit your day job Jimbo!
say bye bye Granger you volume shootin douche..... tonight the burden of being the Pacers franchise player has officially became Paul George's, and I somehow doubt he's gonna be a douche about it like you have been all these years
