Gamethread GAME 54... Lakers vs Knicks Today 8:30pm ET ...

[slifersd]

So we figured out that AD and LeBron play better with THT out there instead of Westbrook...
I wonder if Westbrook has figured that out yet... And I wonder if that's what they meant by "Westbrook needs to figure it out."

That he's a 6th man?

Also, if the Knicks were dumb enough to trade us Randle in Westbrook trade, we should not hesitate at all...

Westbrook isn't smart enough to figure out anything. He is truly mentally incapable to figure out how to adjust his game to fit into a system.

Davis 28 (double-double), James 29 (triple-double), Monk 29. Ariza played well once again, and hit some clutch shots. Westbrook sat out the entire overtime for Horton-Tucker, thank goodness.

I can’t believe it’s taken Vogel as long as it has to figure out Monk should be starting over Bradley. Meanwhile nothing to really say about Russ. Dude was awful tonight. Really missing Nunn right about now.

Monk was actually the 3rd star we looking for? Needs to ship out Westbroke to sign him next year.

Westbrick getting benched in OT and booed by his hometown crowd was my favorite moment this season.

Yay we beat the god-awful Knicks in OT. Will we win it all now ?

He did it in the olympics, but that was when he was one of the most athletic athletes in the world.
It’s amazing how Lebron has adapted his game, given how dependent he was on his athleticism. Westbrook, on the other hand, has expired.

Another late collapse...but the Lakers are killers in overtime.

Lakers are killers... of their own fans like me who has a heart ailment
Im in Hawaii, went to the beach, snorkeled , saw a waterfall, ate good food and foolishly decided to watch the final minute of the game. Led by 5, missed 3. FTs, 2 long jumpers while allowing 2 open 3’s.
Wife saw how distraught I was that she dragged me out to watch the sunset by the beach. Saw 2 whales but still wondered what happened to my beloved Lakers.

It was exciting, I can tell you that! Here on the East Coast, these overtime games last long past midnight.
