dwight looks like a complete clown now instead of just acting like one. he looks like a dark-skinned drew gooden with that headband and those socks(?).

I wonder if people are still gonna use the "Dwight is injured" excuse again after they bragged the last 2 games how he's "back baby!"?

:lol:

Not the rule guys.....haha must be nice to just sit there & talk without knowing anything haha

NBA set to implement rule changes

• The eight-second backcourt violation will occur when the shot clock reaches 15 seconds, rather than 16.

That link should keep a couple of my Laker friends from complaining about the refs.

I'm listening to the Lakers game and the TNT guys just said, "if I was D'Antoni, I'd find a way to run more plays for Earl Clark.". smh

Hey now, I can't stand the lakers or heat, but I'm always going to pull for Clark and Shard...

Earl actually had a couple threes... guys like him and even McRoberts for that matter just confuse me -- the ball handling, athleticism, and occasionally they get there shot going... they should be far better scorers then they are.

Funny story: Tony Battie airballed a free throw during Dwight Howard's rookie season. Howard couldn't stop laughing. Not so funny now.

Anybody remember this? And Can you find the vid?

Would you guys attribute that dropoff to his injury/"slow" start or negative press from the dwightmare? Being in LA and on one of the most popular sports teams of all time, I figured he would easily break the 1 million mark.

Probably because there are no more voting for Centers on the ballots. All F/C are grouped into one now.

Priceless GIF. Just reading Gentry was canned in Phoenix and the was followed with two posts about SVG by Gortat.

Haha no chance SVG coaches the Suns.

I do see the Suns moving some of their pieces though. Maybe they bring up Kendall Marshall now & give him some burn.

Didn't realize how BRUTAL their drafting has been since 08

Robin Lopez
Malik Hairston
Earl Clark
Taylor Griffin
Emir Preldzic
Gani Lawal
Dwayne Collins
Markieff Morris
Kendall Marshall

yikes

remember when Dwight broke the all-star voting record? it just shows you how small of a market LA is :wink:

Wait..I was led to believe by SVG haters that he and Gortat didn't get a long. :roll:

Oh, they fought all right. I've seen Marcin argue with and then shove SVG before he stalked off to the bench. But he cares more about winning than being patted on the head, unlike some centers we have had.
