Lakers vs Mavericks - Let's do this ...

If Luka doesn't get 50 points with triple double I'll be shocked - Lakers have no one who will stop him

:rockon:

Time zones suck balls. 8:20 am and 3rd quarter for me, normally most games are like 2:30pm Farrrrk!

And Luka not killing us that much lol

It started off pretty good and it is currently pretty ugly now. O to 100 real quick. Out hustled, out rebound and out scored. No fire at all

Bev guarding Luka? How the F doesn't Luka have 50? LOL

It kills me to see this. The Lakers have nobody outside LeBron that can put a body on Luka. He is literally cooking every little guard Ham throws on him. I have had enough.

This team is going nowhere with this current roster. No size or bbal iq

Bev guarding bigger players, sounds like the normal to me. The lack of size co tinues to be a big issue with this Lakers team

I stopped watching. Guard play was horrid except Reaves and Westbrook. Everybody else was terrible. I appreciate Wenyan's efforts. Sad that this FO is allowing this.

Why wasn't Wenyen/Bryant not playing In the end?

What Is Ham's Hard on for playing 4-5 guards? I'm sorry you just don't do that

4 guards means faster pace= more excitement, increased scoring = hopefully more fans buying tickets, masking their inept shooting.
Unfortunately they also become a very bad defensive team allowing a ton more points.
Now I wonder if Lebron is really upset with them losing so many games because he’s accomplishing his other agenda to putting up great numbers and passing Kareem for the top all time scoring.

I was going to saysomething about Bron's stats - but I won't

But as for the 4 -5 guards and wanting faster pace etc - You're the Lakers, not OKC or the MAGIC as long as you have 1-2 stars you almost going to sell tickets and going to be must watch game on the net so going for faster pace and more exciting is a dumb argument - I did see what he said after the game though - still wrong - Bryant/Wenyen are both capable of keeping up with pace and making things fast

LOL I expected the result but thinking Luka would get 50. But didn't expect the 5 guard line up In the 4th LOL

This midget line up is a joke! Any coach who let other team scored over 50pts in a quarter should be fired!!!

Pat Bev was supposed to be the guy to bring spirit to the team and the main guy to guard the best player of the opposing team. He can do neither of both while keeping our team small as hell.

There was a stretch when WB, Schroder and Pat Bev playing together while offering no offense and no defense. Play Troy Brown more, play Jones more!!!

IF AD is healthy and play this game, we would have taken this game.

Sign and trade for Wingsssss and additional Big is much needed while trimming the guard rotation down. Otherwise, we are not winning any games.
