It's really the only thing lacking from his game at this point (his defense doesn't really matter in today's NBA)


it matters in the playoffs when he'll get targeted repeatedly. it wouldnt be so bad if everyone around him wasnt equally clueless.

LaMelo bailed out in this one. Took an awful shot with about 40 seconds to go, layup on other end. Then next play turns it over trying to give the ball to Hayward and Lakers messed up 3-1 fastbreak.

Nice to see us win. LeBron looked unstoppable in the 4th.

This board is toxic as hell. Lamelo does a handshake with a true friend and fats on here acting immature as hell.

disappointed you are taking shots at me. its been a rough year for us fans. yet i'm here every day chatting hoops best i can. its bleak for us, so yeah, lots of negativity all around. i'm' still rooting for every win. what is toxic is people just disappearing because we suck or because they dont agree with views on players, team etc... that kills the board, not venting about our franchise. we need to vent. sure, i get a little emotional and overeact at times to stuff that annoys me. you've known me long enough to know this. hard for me to believe that my complaining ruins the fan experience for you. stick around and be part of the solution. change the tone.

merry christmas

i'm happy because lebron lost a **** shoe. we never beat lebron, so, its all fun on my end.

Eh. Probably me being immature. I just thrive on positive energy. We use to have it on here. Even in the 7 win days we had bismack doing an odd triple double against Dwight Howard. Sorry, I had a moment.

I just like to see us win.

I don't think anyone here is intentionally negative. It's just cumulative frustration due to the basketball gods hating us and pessimism due to the consequences of the basketball gods hating us. Most were pretty happy entering the offseason and we all know what happened next...and next...and next.

I do think what is negative for one isn't necessarily negative for another. For myself, I'm all aboard the tank wagon. That may be considered a negative view, but not for me.

Why? I think the younger players on the team are solid. And I think adding another top prospect is better long-term than making the playin tournament again. Especially if the playin results in getting dumped on like we've already been twice in a row.

Think of it as a very delayed Christmas present. Hopefully a fancy French horn or a scooter. Rather than a bag of coal we'll need to sweep up ;)
