Man, that picture makes all those Lakers' hair look silly. Tarik Black looks like he's thinking "You still wondering why we're soft?"

Jesus christ! Another Bledsoe knee injury?

We really should rest him the rest of the season?

Put bubble wrap around those knees and sit him for the season.

I called NBA radio just now and they haven't heard anything about EB yet. I'm guessing he'll be a game time decision.

This is one game I'll be real surprised if we lose. If we do, it would be good for further separation from the rest of the pack. If Bled is out, it will make the game interesting in the sense we can see what this team would look like without him. I imagine it won't be great. Ulis has been great at times, but his greatest going against the worst defensive pg in the league in IT and against most starters he might have it tough. The Lakers would be a good time to try it though since they are young and likely wouldn't be too hard on him defensively. Not like going against Conley or Paul or something.

If Bled is questionable, I don't know why they'd play him. There is no reason to whatsoever. Ulis would relish the chance to start. I'd love to see him with Len, Chriss, Warren and Booker. Good things all around, even if we lose.

Seriously. Haven't we figured out what we need to figure out?

-Bledsoe/Booker/TJ/Chriss are our starters
-Len is a backup center AT BEST that gets outplayed by Alan Williams
-Ulis is legit and is our backup of the future
-Jr. deserves a roster spot

There seems to be an awful lot of recency bias bouncing around ...umm? Recently.

Nope. We are 3-1 now in our last 4. That's who we are now. A 75% winning rate team. We would win 60 games if the season started now.

And Len sucks. He would have never gotten 11 boards and 4 blocks in 22 minutes, while shooting 75% in the last game if Williams hadn't fouled out. Guy would have been on the bench where he belongs!

Did you guys notice that Bledsoe "hyperextended" his knee?

F*** the Lakers. My hatred for that team runs deep.
