Kevin Martin can shoot from his penis without his shot getting blocked and MKG can't fix his shot? OK.

MKG's release is nowhere near as quick as KMart's. That hitch mess MKG up.

MKG should go to his middle, highschool, AAU coaches and slap them for not fixing that. That is easily fixed in 8th grade. After 10 years of doing it? No, not at all. It will take 3-5 years.

They move the ball 100x better when Kobe isn't stopping it. No disrespect to the legend but his time as a franchise carrying player might be up. He better learn how to integrate himself like Reggie Miller or something did in his latter years because he's just not the same player he was 4-5 years ago.

Just came on here to say that exact same thing. Kobe is going to have to learn that he isn't "the man" anymore.

Xavier Henry is looking like a smart start by the Lakers, 11 of LA's 30

that is true, they are a better team w/o Kobe and his isolations, they made a horrible move giving him that extension

Good finish by K-love

Both. LA really is better without Kobe in the lineup. MDA's system really doesn't work with Kobe. I believe the only win LA had with Kobe in the lineup was against us? MDA is tremendous at making scrubs and role players look like studs. Interested to see what he does with Kendall Marshall.

It's looking like Nazi Blitzkrieg over on the Raps board tonight, bunch of self-deprecating lunatics

MKG was a big for most of his early career and sadly, huge swaths of grassroots America haven't learned the lesson the International game taught us about every position needs to know the fundamentals of shooting, dribbling, and passing.

Has Paul George overtaken James Harden's place as the up & coming star that's right on the heels of the elite? I think so

Harden's been in a major slump from three and has been hurt all year, but PG has really turned a corner. He was overrated as hell over the last year, but he's legit now.

George's defense put Harden deeper into that slump tonight. It almost felt like a statement game where George declared that he's the better of the two with an emphatic win

It makes no sense that Kevin Love puts up the type of numbers that he does. He needs to teach Zody something.

K-Love is super talented, its hard to teach Zeller the things he does. Love also got a lot better once he got into the league, adding a somewhat consistent 3pt shot. The rebounding he puts up is solely just due to talent. Nobody anticipates the bounce better than he does

Kemba also blocks more shots than Kevin Love. If Love were to teach Zeller something, it better have nothing to do with defense. Love is still a terrible defensive player. Minnesota would be a playoff team if Love learned how to defend at all or paired him up with a halfway competent defender. Pekovic/Love will NEVER work because neither of them can defend a hedgehog.

Thank you. I was just about to poach this very subject with your knowledge. Defense is a very important aspect towards winning, and Kevin Love nor Nikola Pekovic has it

Minnesota's an average defensive team, guys.
