Game thread: LAL vs Utah - Honda Center

Duhon has looked a lot better than Blake today. Sometimes i wonder if Blake has just completely checked out as a Laker.

Chris Duhon is x100 better than Steve Blake if I were to evaluate them based on this one game

I cant believe what I just saw. I just saw Chris Duhon split a double team and find the open man . I have never seen a Laker point guard do that in the past 10+ years . Frig it, give all of Blake's minutes to Duhon

He sees the inevitable that we are going to ship his ass the first chance we get.

Duhon > Blake

Duhon has looked alright tonight, maybe he isnt completely useless

Hopefully we can ship him out for straight up Cash, I don't think FO is interested in getting any additional players in return for Blake.

Jamison looks awful. He's had a ton of open shots and hasn't been able to put anything down all preseason. His defense is non-existent, which I suppose was to be expected. What a waste of a signing. Hopefully we can bury him on the bench and run Ebanks, Hill, and Sacre as our reserve FC. He's earned no playing time whatsoever.

Blake is still completely useless. How is this guy in the NBA?

If any team took him for a trade exception i would do it.

Well Meeks is finally making shots.

[EArl]

Meeks looks like he found his shot.

[Kobean]

Meeks looked really good at the end there and I like Duhon a bit more now

[Michael Lucky]

sadly the only reason we liked Duhon so much is because Blake has become a lost cause unless it's clutch time shooting.

Meeks is streaky but at least he still has his shot, so I feel a bit better about that back-up two.

[Al242]

Meeks looks like he found his shot.

he found it off an assist from Duhon. Happened as soon as steve blake got out the game. Duhon needs to be our primary backup PG while Blake is sent to the D-League , this way Mike Brown wont be tempted to ever give that scrub minutes.

[GoldKnightRises]

Love the confidence Meeks showed in his shot to finish off the game 4-6 3pt fg

1. I know this is just the pre-season and the games don't count.
2. I know Mike Brown's Cavalier team that made it to the Finals went 1-6 during the preseason that year.
3. I know we have yet to field the team that will eventually be the team on opening night.
4. I know we have yet to cement the offense we will be running.
5. I know we haven't set the proper rotations, and we're using this time to experiment and vet out players.

BUT, I do have to admit that I worry about the seemingly ho-hum demeanor of play. I hope this doesn't boil over to the regular season where everyone ends up waiting for someone else to save the day.

[Michael Lucky]

lol you guys are too funny. It's not like Kobe is going to play whole quarters with Reeves Nelson, Aguilar, and Steve Blake.
