Just saw come across the bottom of the screen that Bron is out with ankle soreness. He's already played like it's the end of a long game toward the end of the season so far.... is this the year that father time catches him?

I didn't see much of the last 2 years so maybe he's been slowing down but he looked pretty slow the parts of the last couple games I saw.

Sitting here with a friend.... he just noted that the Lakers are a carbon copy of the 08-12 Celtics.... Old core with a new group of has been vets and nobodies surrounding them each year. I can't fight that....

Most dynasty teams are built almost exactly that way. Lakers, Spurs, Bulls, Celtics.

Is your friend a Celtics fan?

I love it when we beat Popovic, but it’s never an easy matchup. Mad respect.

I would be pretty disappointed if we didn’t blow out this team. They have no one who can guard us on the inside.

I like what I'm seeing from Howard. He is guarding alot on the perimeter and drawing fouls

He's honestly not been bad this game. He still needs to improve on defense in terms of sticking to his man. Offense wise, he is great on the fast break and he's been playing well next to AD.

AD is looking more aggressive this year.

The refs haven’t been good tonight. Tons of nonsense going on

That's the 3rd time this quarter Russ was staring at his man hit a 3. The tape won't be kind to him in defense.

Wasn’t it 9% entering tonight? Pathetic.

Between the 3PT percentage, the FT percentage and the carelessness on O & D, I just can’t stand watching him. Hate that he’s wearing a Laker jersey.

I’m not a Westbrook guy, but those numbers are pretty meaningless given the small sample size. AD is shooting 22% on roughly the same number of attempts.
