I saw a play where Booker got a open catch and shoot 3.

That is a win.

Bledsoe should be traded ASAP.

My two cents...

Hard to believe Tyson Chandler was a DPOY at one point. He can't guard stretch bigs and doesn't even contest guards on drives. Len can't guard stretch bigs either and when he tries to contest a drive he usually gets a foul call. Bender would have been a good option at C down the stretch.

Bledsoe decided to show up after the timeout with 7-8 minutes left for some reason. Would love to know what happened.

That wide open Ball layup gotta be the worst defensive sequence in clutch time in the history of basketball.

Brewer took Booker out of the game in the second half. Should have handled it much better.

Meh. I just want to fire Watson because I'm not sure he is developing our players very well. Our tank should still be strong regardless of our coach though.

It really annoys me that I'm going to have to watch Chandler for 2 more years. He's cooked and just retire out of pride but he won't because the suns gave him a 50mil retirement package.

Not trading him this summer was criminal negligence by McD.

Thigh contusion but was supposed to play. Watson just has a boner for Mime James who got time cause he put up numbers against the end of portland's bench the first game. He had a decent streak this game, but was in too long and negated it.

Laker fanboys going nuts, and im here like...You won....by a whole 2 points! Blazers were up 60 on us, so a 2 point victory aint nothing. Guess they feel the need to celebrate these kind of wins where they can get them.

......and the tank rolls on.

:roll: :roll: :roll:

Just because you get paid doesn't mean all of a sudden you're a super clutch player.

Warren gave us EXACTLY what we paid him for 24/8/4 on 50FG%

They are bipolar af, yesterday it was the end of the world, now they are future superstars. It's what happens when you are new to watching a rebuilding team.

I don't really see many people blaming him for the loss, yea they are frustrated he missed those because he did, but this game is on the team and the coaching staff, changes will need to be made very soon.


Yeah, if he didn't get the offensive rebound in the first place like he is so good at, and put it back up, no one would be complaining. He could have just done nothing there and not put our team even in the position to potentially win a game.

It would be funny that Watson spent all offseason, teaching everyone Yoga and taking them to Pilates on the beach and Spin class, just to be canned and half the team traded away 2 games in. :lol:

Right? Chriss missed his shot too. They lost as a team and it was long before that play.

He's not. That's why when people say, he's getting paid peanuts and we're losing as intended pisses me off. There's more to the game then just tanking and having dinner with players to keep them happy. Above all the coaching ineptness of Watson, the one thing that concerns me the most is the development of our players. He's not doing a very good job because he's not maximizing their talents. He's not showing them where they can succeed and get better at what they do best.
