This team seems lethargic and beaten down.

Its just one off-ball screen. That's it. One ball screen on Miller's man and it destroys our defence.

No communication at all. Disgusting.

Green's a pathetic defender. I hope we replace him with Jodie Meeks in the summer.

Why not leave Miller open more? Seems to be working well.

Meeks is equally bad.

Hey Hornacek, obviously the players have given up on the season, how about playing Goodwin and Len?

Suns getting super unlucky on the 50/50 shots... Seems like there's a cover on the basket.

Meeks is equally bad.


One of the biggest surprises that many Lakers fans weren't expecting this season from Meeks has been his play on defense.

Not known as a defender, Meeks has done a great job all year disrupting ball-handlers with his quick hands and his annoying defense.

Meeks has also been one of the team's best pick-and-roll defenders, using his speed to either avoid screens completely or come off them quickly.

Meeks will never be considered a great defender, but has proven time in and time out that he can get the job done.

Should be noted that pick and roll defense is what Green struggles with most.

Zach Randolph has utterly abused our front line tonight.

Oh look, there are game break highlights of Lillard now. With the way the NBA has been pimping him out this season I would be surprised if he wasn't voted All-NBA second team. That'd push Goran to 3rd team at best.

Green has played terrible defense.. But we need him out there on offense.

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Suns basically have to get body slammed to get a foul called for them.

Ugh... So many offensive goaltending calls lately. At least one a game it seems.

If we played Memphis 100 times, how many games would we win against them?
