LOL. Lakers are a joke.
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

I think WB has realized his shot is off...he is using his athleticism to penetrate and make hustle plays...he made an adjustment which I do find surprising.....

Game is gonna be close but I have feeling WB will cost Houston the game. He’s out of control

How can you leave Eric Gordon open for multiple 3s like that?

I think we all knew that Rockets run was coming in the 3rd. Lakers have to keep going to Davis.

Rockets are just never out of a game. Their ability to get hot from 3 and score in a flurry is scary.

I would live or die with Westbrook driving to the basket with one coverage vs him kicking out and letting houston's shooter get hot.

Well reading through this thread it heartens me to see that finally the scales are falling from the eyes of most RealGMers. Westbrook will, absolutely WILL, sink this team. I really wish Paul and Harden could of held it together one more year. With the weird pause in the season, CP3 looked healthier and more ready then he has in years. Replace Westbrick with Paul, no other changes, on this team and they might have a legit chance to win this thing. Honestly I think if they just gave all his minutes to Rivers and House they'd be a much better team for it.

Rockets could break the playoff record for most made 3s if they keep this up

Maybe he thinks that he's not allowed to change the starting line up going into 2nd half?
