Nah, you should never hold for the final shot when down 1 (or 2). Math doesn't check out.

I'm no good at math, but I certainly believe this.

If not us, the Warriors first loss will be to Paul George

Totally agree.

Kobe's last game in Philly where he's from. Safe to bet at 60% of the crowd will be Laker/Kobe fans.

The Lakers are bad. Like, reeeeeeeealllllly bad.

EDIT - My bad on the triple post lol. I really hate D'Angelo Russell's game. Puzzles me why the Lakers wouldn't want Jahlil over him. A core of Clarkson/Randle/Okafor ain't bad at all, you add a good swingman in there and a 3+D SF and that's a very good starting 5 for years.

Plus it looks like the Sixer streak is gonna end!

Kobe is about to out-tank Philly!

edit: He's almost taken as many 3's as the next highest FGA on the Lakers. 17 3PA vs 19 FGA for Jordan Clarkson. Jesus. This is just sad seeing Kobe like this. Is it really beautiful, watching an all-time great sputter and falter his way toward retirement?

Zach Lowe ain't lying about Kobe being the most detrimental player in the league.

Philly finally wins. kobe not holding back in his last year :lol:

Dr Positivity · Post #933 » by **Dr Positivity** » Wed Dec 2, 2015 2:58 am

What is Kobe thinking when he takes these shots... trying to build as big a lead on Durant and LBJ for 3rd all time scoring as he can? Just really enjoying shooting?

Hero · Post #934 » by **Hero** » Wed Dec 2, 2015 3:13 am

Jordan Clarkson and some of the other guys on the Lakers have got to be annoyed. Having to deal with this guy just chuck up bad shots is not good for development.

Wiggins needs to make that free throw.

hsb · Post #937 » by **hsb** » Wed Dec 2, 2015 3:28 am

Eh, 27 on 14 shots. He came to play after Lavine, Towns and Rubio having off nights at the same time. Should've had that. Nice to see Wiggins and then Nicholson shoot free throws back to back though lol.

TheGoodDoctor · Post #938 » by **TheGoodDoctor** » Wed Dec 2, 2015 4:05 am

Seeing the rapid deterioration of Kobe (37) just makes me appreciate Duncan (39) that much more....

Almost every guy from his generation is washed up or a shell of themselves (KG, VC etc) most of whom are actually younger yet the Big Fundamental is still a main cog to the Spurs success.

hsb · Post #939 » by **hsb** » Wed Dec 2, 2015 4:13 am

Yeah, Dirk too and he is still the first option while being ridiculously efficient lol, 4-7 right now for 13 points in the half.
