matt barnes looks like the bad guy from "batteries not included"

THERE HE IS!

Poor Burks gives the worst interviews ever - he's not comfortable with media

Barnes looks like the slap chop man.

As always, so much fun to watch this team without Al.

It should have been a ~15 point victory.. Refs were just ridiculous. Utah played great.. Only problem was Favors-Milsap frontcourt struggled late defensively

I find Burks to be a bit odd. I wonder if his lips ever chap?

Refs tried their damnedest to give that game to the Lakers, but our youth refused. Love beating LA in LA more than just about anything. You could hear the fans collectively playing on their iphones almost the whole game, what a pathetic crowd.

I freaking love this team right now. Unfortunately, Al will be back...

Oh they only played with their phones until Kobe was at the line at the end of the game, then they realized 'oh this is when we chant MVP', so they did. While I discussed whether that was Kobe's worst game as a pro with Lakers fans on Silver Screen and Roll.

Absolute idiots in that arena.

It's always so much fun to beat LA.

game didnt have to be as close as it was.


thanks cj

Holy shiz!!! I came her expecting only positivity after that great team win and I see this!!! You guys are so ungrateful and unappreciative it kinda makes me sick! There is not one player on our roster who could have played Kobe that well!! Gordon did alright on him but kobe was blowing right by him! C'mon ya'll are so bad at giving credit when its due. Miles sucks alot of the time, but even when he has a good game, ya'll want to spazz on him.

Let's see how many points did Hayward put in tonight? What's that? 0? hmmm...strange that we don't bash on him...especially since he maybe even more inconsistent than CJ. Just ridiculous

[phrizzo]

i only caught the second half, but was CJ really that good defensively? seems like kobe has just been shooting poorly lately. also cj just had a few dumb plays and shot pretty poorly himself.

[jazzgasm]

Good to see kanter and favors contributing more!!! and kobe was just bad but cj did ok d on him, better then usual lol

Thank you for the huge 10 minute video. It was almost like watching a full game. It was appreciated. Everyone please keep those videos coming.

Burks is very good.....he will be a bigtime player. His handle is great for a tall guard....great size and strength. He effortlessly elevates going to the rim and can get a bank shot off with little fear of being blocked.

Kanter had his best game. 17 points, 8 rebounds....awesome.

I love beating the Lakers!

[HolyToledo]

I was at the game and Laker Fans looked stunned. They kept spurting out who is that #10 and those two Big Guys for Utah.

Everytime Burks made a basket I would yell out "Kobe Jr." and when Favors or Kanter scored I would yell out "If you dont know, you better ask someone!" When CJ would chuck up a brick I would say "theres our idiot". He did play good defense without fouling.

If Lakers went zone or ran more pick and role then the outcome would have been different. Kobe also looked disinterested maybe still upset over the Fisher trade.

Extremely impressive win and the young guys the last 2 nights were amazing!

Great win!

What a great win. I really like how vocal Favors has been lately. Maybe it's just that he's playing better or being in the starting lineup has helped but he is showing some nice unexpected leadership qualities.
