It certainly has worked better this year than Rondo without LeBron. Coming into today's game rondo was a -28.6 without LeBron this year.

So.... you're saying rearward looking statistics haven't been a good predictor? Hmm...

It still isn't a good lineup and Vogel shouldn't be using it, but I'll lay off Rondo for this game since that was a nice oop to LeBron.

Rondo's passes are so accurate... Nobody else on the team is close. Not even LeBron.

Something poetic about rondo throwing a perfect lob to lebron in laker jerseys

Yeah... CP3 is noticeable slower and looks 10lbs overweight and is really not that impactful on this game yet they are hangin with us because of their bench and youth. They have a ton of picks.

I think Paul is sandbagging hoping he can get bought out and come here. If that happens it will test my fandom.

Rondo is gonna be a rollercoaster all season.

Rondo in the open court is still very dangerous. In the half court with a guy like LeBron not so much. If Vogel is smart you play to that with a line up with Rondo, Kuzma and one of Davis or Bron. Run with that group. He's been a positive tonight and he's looking like he's getting his wind.

I know it isn’t the cool look but it always makes Horace Grant stand out that he was the only one who protected his eyes regularly

I'm listening to the NBA TV halftime "analysis".... any news on Kuz's eye on the local feed?

Candace Parker huh... Who woulda thought?

Game would have been over without Schrodinger's cat hot shooting. Too bad his bball iq is still pretty terrible.

Since ppl are comparing Kuz to him, may as well start wearing the glasses. :lol:

Any news on Kuz?

Post #113 » by **Kilroy** » Wed Nov 20, 2019 4:57 am

I haven't heard anything yet on the stream I'm watching.

He's back but he's effed up...

Popeye

Kuz's eye looks like a MMA guy after the 3rd round.

Kuzma's eye is f*cked.

He came out to shoot during halftime. He's on the bench but his eye looks messed up

I guess him being back on the bench doesn't mean it's the detached retina issue that forced Kareem and Worthy to goggle up.

What an idiotic start. Why does McGee ever have the ball on the perimeter?
