[Jodelo]

Let's get it started, faggots!

Celtics, Knicks, Heat, Bulls, Nuggets

[smaka]

Brooklyn, Knicks, Heat, Bulls, Floppers

[TheRealCB]

Too bad there's not a Spurs game.I'd love seeing Pop rest Duncan and Co. :lol

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

The Nets look so mediocre. Their offense is such garbage. They have like 2 shooters, one of whom is the point guard, and are super slow at moving the ball. And most of their plays are isos.

[Clipper Nation]

The Nets are baaaad... Avery's ruined that team tbh...

[fevertrees]

Doris Burke looking sexy as hell today

[Technique]

Did the Nets just run a play for Reggie Evans?

[DD]

Doris Burke looking sexy as hell today

:lol

[Cry Havoc]

Nets look abysmal.

[purplengold]

why da fuck is there some homoerotic picture up there

[Narutoluva]

^ you mad bro?

[Jodelo]

:lolWilliams

[Stalin]

Doris Burke looking sexy as hell today


sup BRPelican

[Technique]

Wow that was a horrible 5 on 4 fast break.

[Technique]

That should be a defensive foul 10 times out of 10. Stopping in front of a player running the break? Rondo thinks he's a traffic cone. They have to stop giving these calls to the floppers.

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao Refs completely losing control and then punishing everyone for it. I don't like KG but he did absolutely nothing there.

[Clipper Nation]

DWill is beyond overrated tbh....

[irishock]

Deron should've went to Dallas, you know they have an actual offensive coach?

[Jodelo]

Watson the best PG in Brooklyn :lol

[Technique]

Time to take a break before the real games begin.

[Cry Havoc]

DWill is beyond overrated tbh....

Lol a Clippers fan who doesn't like DWill, shocking. He's playing injured right now.

[ElNono]

Just tuned in. Boston looking like ish too

[fevertrees]

Justin Bieber, exactly what basketball fans want to see on these Xmas games. :lol:

[Cry Havoc]

Just tuned in. Boston looking like ish too

That's an upgrade for them, right?

[Jodelo]

Nets offense is brutal!

[Cry Havoc]

Nets offense is brutal!

They're only about 3 good shooters away from being a decent team. :lol

[Sportstudi]

Nets playbook.

1. Isolation
2. Isolation
3. Repeat

[Technique]

Nets playbook.

1. Isolation
2. Isolation
3. Repeat

There's an occasional Reggie Evans offensive rebound to the brick 3 in there.

[irishock]

Kobe Bryant- Over/under 25 shots?

[Jodelo]

Kobe Bryant- Over/under 25 shots?

In the first quarter? Over!

[Clipper Nation]

Lol a Clippers fan who doesn't like DWill, shocking. He's playing injured right now.
He's basically Baron Davis all over again, always injured, out-of-shape, selfish, and full of excuses, tbh....

[Paranoid Pop]

Why was the Bieb on league pass, did they really think he appealed to their demo? wtf...

[resistanze]

Kurt Thomas still doin' work

[Cry Havoc]

He's basically Baron Davis all over again, always injured, out-of-shape, selfish, and full of excuses, tbh....

A career 9+ assist guy who's selfish. Odd analysis, that.

[Paranoid Pop]

Gasol in beast mode.

[Cry Havoc]

Kobe on pace for 40 (shot attempts, that is). :lmao What a tool.

[Jodelo]

10 shots in 1 quarter! :lmao

[FkLA]

You just know hes aiming for 40 or 50, win or lose. Its Christmas on ABC and he needs to show everybody he can still score in bunches.

[Joyrider]

Crofl at Gasol not dominating Ronnie fucking Brewer.

[Cry Havoc]

Do the Lakers ever lose a primetime game without a star player on the other team getting injured?

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao Foul on D'antoni. "BUT IM SUPPOSED TO GET ALL THE CALLS IN LA!"

[Jodelo]

:lolHoward

:lolAntoni will run Nash/Bryant in the ground!

[Jodelo]

Go under the screen for Nash and force him to score.

[Jodelo]

Refs trying to help LA! :lmao

[Clipper Nation]

Boring-ass game of refball, per par...

[Mal]

Melo too good for Lakers, lets give him quick pf.

[Sportstudi]

Refs trying to help LA! :lmao

Such a bogus call :lmao

[HI-FI]

Knicks/Fakers is a good game. But I imagine the refs will take this one over, I can't imagine Stern wants LA losing in this situation.

[Cry Havoc]

Nash getting the flopping of Hollywood down, and getting called for it. :lmao

[Mal]

Another one on Melo :lmao

[Jodelo]

:depressedThe refs have to get Melo out of there, so we have a chance:depressed - Lakers

[HI-FI]

amazing how much of a douche Nash became once he joined the fakers. haircut that would make Adam Levine proud, not wanting his kids in LA, :cryi used to be a big fan of the guy.

[Clipper Nation]

Knicks/Fakers is a good game. But I imagine the refs will take this one over, I can't imagine Stern wants LA losing in this situation.
Yep. :lol at anyone thinking the Knicks will be allowed to win, tbh...

[TheRealCB]

All 3 fouls on Melo were legit,fuck him for using his hand to get around Artest.

[Mal]

another one :lmao

[Joyrider]

Loose ball foul game par par.

[Mal]

Steve Nash is master in faking defense.

[HI-FI]

this game is a textbook example of how refs can control a game, because it shouldn't be this close. Kobe wants to pull a Max Cady on this reporter per par.

[Jodelo]

Ok, name one player in the NBA Steve Nash can defend?

Oh, and the refs gave the Lakers the lead, good job! :toast

[Clipper Nation]

And the Laker$' bullshit "win streak" continues... GG, refs :lol

[ElNono]

Fluke 3pt shooting from Artest/Gasol keeping LA in this game... at some point those fluke 3s are gonna stop falling...

[Bynumite]

Holy shit... it's halftime and the amount of butthurtness coming from non-Knickfans is through the roof... it's hilarious tbh :lmao

[Koolaid_Man]

Holy shit... it's halftime and the amount of butthurtness coming from non-Knickfans is through the roof... it's hilarious tbh :lmao

They need to rename this forum the Kobe obsessed forum

[Jodelo]

Sup pinky?

[Jodelo]

Kobe with 30 shots in the 2nd half? Holy cow...

[Cry Havoc]

Anthony tapping dat ash.

[Jodelo]

4th foul on Anthony coming up as the Lakers are down again...

[Sportstudi]

4th foul on Anthony coming up as the Lakers are down again...

Will come soon, no worries...

[ElNono]

SSOL coming up

[Cry Havoc]

Holy shit... it's halftime and the amount of butthurtness coming from non-Knickfans is through the roof... it's hilarious tbh :lmao

:lmao Thinking people are butthurt about the Lakers being sub .500. :lmao

[Jodelo]

That's like the 25th shot Chandler was not able to finish at the rim...

[Jodelo]

I thought MWP got that block...

[Cry Havoc]

Melo reverting to old school Melo... if he can see the rim, he's chucking.

[Cry Havoc]

I thought they weren't calling that foul anymore?

[Jodelo]

Howard has no post game, after all those years. :lol

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao Kobe pissed that he's called for a much more substantial foul that the one he just drew. :lol

[Cry Havoc]

Metta is the best Lakers player on the court.

[Sportstudi]

Lol, Gasol screaming again....

[LkrFan]

Melo playing like an MVP.

[Cry Havoc]

"The Lakers aren't talented enough to be a pretty team." :lmao :lmao :lmao

[LkrFan]

Nash outplaying Fat Felton tbh.

[Sportstudi]

MWP is such a crack head...

[Cry Havoc]

Refs helping LAL, as per par. Ball hits D'antoni, they call it out of bounds to LA? WTF? LOLOLOLOL.

[Sportstudi]

Lol refs

[Fabbs]

and the rigged ref fest begins. :lol

[Jodelo]

Refs to the rescue...

But why does Chandler have the good old Erick Dampier hands tonight?

[HI-FI]

lol

only in LA

[LkrFan]

Getting Nashty out there. :)

[Juggity]

:lol the myth of clutchbe bryant

[Jodelo]

Ball was inside, foot was inside, Antoni was inside = Lakers get the ball. :lmao

[Reck]

Refs hell bent on tying this game to start the fourth and still Lakers couldn't even tie it. :lol

[LkrFan]

Refs helping LAL, as per par. Ball hits D'antoni, they call it out of bounds to LA? WTF? LOLOLOLOL.
Remember what Cubby says.. ;)

[Fabbs]

Can one of you techie types capture D Antoni standing on the court of play while the ball hits his foot?

Do the rules maybe dictate that it's automatically the other teams ball? Technical to boot?

[TheRealCB]

"The Lakers aren't talented enough to be a pretty team." :lmao :lmao :lmao

Did he say "aren't"? I thought I was crazy for a moment.

[GuerillaBlack]

Lol, ball don't lie.

[irishock]

[Cry Havoc]

Did he say "aren't"? I thought I was crazy for a moment.

Based on the context of what else he was saying, "aren't" is the only thing that makes sense. 5 All-Stars = not talented. :lol

[irishock]

Bryant of course chucks it up

[Cry Havoc]

Pop would have been $250k lighter if he would have got in the way of a play. :lol

[Suspect]

Great D by d'antoni imo

[Mal]

Melo started caring, and his automaticly in top 3 players in the league

[irishock]

Christ, the refs.

[Mal]

Great defense by Hill, according by the refs

[Cry Havoc]

Holy shit these refs. Tackling is legal as long as you're in LA.

[Jodelo]

No call! :lmao

[baseline bum]

Fucking shit, tackle Chandler and no foul?

[baseline bum]

And of course a foul when Bible Kemp lets the ball slip out of his hand

[irishock]

Chippy-est game of the year

[Cry Havoc]

Chippy-est game of the year

Not even close.

[Mal]

Lakers in bonus with 8minutes left

[Jodelo]

Great D by d'antoni imo

Something in this sentence get me thinking...

[DAF86]

JR is so retarded, he jumps on every Kobe pump fake.

[TheRealCB]

It's a good game tho.And pretty physical .

[Jodelo]

Lakers in bonus with 8minutes left

Who would have thought...


JR is so retarded, he jumps on every Kobe pump fake.

JR being JR!

[Mal]

JR is so retarded, he jumps on every Kobe pump fake.

Doesnt matter what he`d do, refs will bail out Lakers

[Sportstudi]

Lakers in bonus with 8minutes left

I'm curious about the FT disparity at the end of the game...

[Jodelo]

Novak's head fould MWP elbow, should have been FT's for the Lakers.

But the way he felt down looked kind of funny. :lol

[Mal]

I'm curious about the FT disparity at the end of the game...

Depends on Knicks clutch shooting in 4th

[Bynumite]

Peace going Queensbridge on those niggas tbh.

[Cry Havoc]

I'm curious about the FT disparity at the end of the game...

23-12 so far. Guess who's leading. :lol

[baseline bum]

Knicks got this game now that snitch has passed 30.

[irishock]

Chris Childs trending on Twitter lol

[Jodelo]

Nice moving screen by Howard!

[HI-FI]

23-12 so far. Guess who's leading. :lol

:lolprepare for the .500 semen cloud. laker fags don't care how rigged their shit is.

[TheRealCB]

Fuck off,it's a cool game.

[Sportstudi]

23-12 so far. Guess who's leading. :lol

I know :lol and I'm not expecting a change...

[FkLA]

Lakers could pick and roll the Knicks to death if they wanted to. NYs only hope is for Kobe to call for some isolations instead.

[irishock]

Kidd is unreal

[baseline bum]

Damn, can't wait for that Houston-Chicago game next.

[Juggity]

Carmelo is the scorer Kobe wishes he was

[Jodelo]

Can the refs close it out?

[Mal]

Interesting what pringles writes. My guess is Kobe shoots after 2 or 3 pump fakes

[Fabbs]

:lol
Can the refs close it out?

[TheRealCB]

^ Jodelo get the fuck of this thread if you have nothing to contribute, Juggity Kobe is outplaying Carmelo tonight.

[Jodelo]

Get Kobe's dick out of your mouth!

[baseline bum]

[baseline bum]

Felton fucking sucks :lol

[baseline bum]

Fuck these refs

[Jodelo]

[Sportstudi]

booom, chandla down

[Cry Havoc]

[GB20]

[Mal]

Gasol on Kidd ???

[baseline bum]

STFU Artest

[baseline bum]

LOL Anthony

Snitchin > Stop Snitchin today

[Jodelo]

So many missed layups. :lol

[Juggity]

:lol so many ugly people with facial plastic surgery on the lakers sideline

[LkrFan]

Nash sons. :

[HI-FI]

Stern sons. :

[Sportstudi]

Should have been Laker ball IMO

[FkLA]

Amazing how much better the Lakers can be when Kobe isnt chucking fadeaways over multiple defenders at the end of games tbh.

[Juggity]

friendkiller with the clutch 3

[Sportstudi]

Gasol is a master of vocal flopping.

[Mal]

Amazing how much better the Lakers can be when Kobe isnt chucking fadeaways over multiple defenders at the end of games tbh.

no kiddin

[irishock]

Game horribly officiated either way

[024]

lakers finally have a decent closer... not a good sign.

[Clipper Nation]

I say again... GG refs :lol

:lol Needing Stern to drag you to .500

[Mal]

Why shoot 3 pointer?

[Jodelo]

Ugh, that shot...

[midnightpulp]

Meh. This Knicks team almost lost to a Loveless Wolves at home two days ago. And they're an average road team at best.

Lakers got their first decent win of the season, I guess, but nothing to jizz over if you're a Laker fan. Playing 5 guys 40 min each a game is a recipe for disaster.

[DAF86]

Horrible play. Why go for the three?

[ElNono]

Friendkiller killing friends, per par

[Mal]

Ok, so Knicks will have chance to tie this game.

[irishock]

Kobe chuck up 3 upcoming

[Mal]

mamba bailed out

[Jodelo]

That defense! :lol

[FkLA]

Could be bad news if Kobe continues to be a willing passer like he did the last few minutes today. I honestly cant remember the last time Kobe wasnt chucking shots to end games.

[Reck]

Lakers very first quality win.

[DAF86]

Nash makes a World of diference.

[Cry Havoc]

Game horribly officiated either way

They make bad calls to get the Lakers ahead by a decent margin. Then in the closing minutes, they intentionally make bad make-up calls to make it seem even.

[FkLA]

Ah who am I kidding. No way Kobe allows Nash, Gasol, or Howard to keep taking the credit. :lol

[024]

that was a good win for the lakers. they won through defense and with nash orchestrating the offense.

[ElNono]

Good win for the Lakeshow... Knicks really missed Novak...

That said, streak ends tomorrow against Denver... this Lakers team just isn't too good

[midnightpulp]

Nice win, Lakers fans. Merry Christmas.

Still 1st/2nd round fodder, though.

[HI-FI]

Thank you Stern Claus.

[Mal]

Nice win, Lakers fans. Merry Christmas.

Still 1st/2nd round fodder, though.

Curious to see how Nash, Howard, Bryant and Gasol bodies feels like in February, after going 40+ every game.

[Bynumite]

C-Note the Lakers don't win the title?

[ElNono]

They probably won't feel a thing

[HI-FI]

holy shit Lebron got called for a foul

[ElNono]

Lebron called for a foul. Stop the presses

[baseline bum]

LOL Methlahoma down 11-2 before ABC can even get the lineups up.

[Mal]

They probably won't feel a thing

I think Howard will feel his back really hard.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Is Jamison banged up? If not, why's he in the doghouse?

[midnightpulp]

Is Jamison banged up? If not, why's he in the doghouse?

Metta is now playing back up PF.

[HI-FI]

Chimpbook's monkey DNA is taking over.

[Mal]

Is Jamison banged up? If not, why's he in the doghouse?

No PT avaible since starting five is playing for 40+ each

[Brunodf]

Lebron called for a foul. Stop the presses

Its OKC...

[FkLA]

Ibaka hitting open mid-range jumpers. Good thing he doesnt hit those fluky shots on just us !!

[DeadlyDynasty]

Also not sure about the 3-guard line-up to start games, but that's what we signed up for with Pringles I guess

[FkLA]

Blake Griffin is one weird looking ginger tbh.

[Koolaid_Man]

Metta is now playing back up PF.


Hello my ugly friend...how is your day today....:lol you were really hoping for a loss huh? In fact you predicted it

[Brunodf]

OKC have the ref advantage over the Heat this season:wow

[Koolaid_Man]

Now you guys can see what we envisioned when we signed Nash..the leadership, the orchestration, the quarter backing....Kobe gave up the ball to Nash and allowed him to facilitate the offense...Nash played decent D but more importantly keep the defense off balanced with his ability to pass and carve up the lanes..Job well Done Stevie....Job well done

[midnightpulp]

Kobe not the QB because the Lakers sign a 38 year old PG. :lmao GOAT!!! :lmao

[Cry Havoc]

Wade looks gassed after 10 minutes.

[Koolaid_Man]

we've won two titles in the last 4 yrs..I will take it

[Koolaid_Man]

Wade looks gassed after 10 minutes.

might be more than just a routine STD... just saying... lol

[midnightpulp]

we've won two titles in the last 4 yrs..I will take it

You'll take losing in the second round?

Guess you're okay with that as long as Kobe keeps scoring, the only thing you seem to care about.

[Koolaid_Man]

Kobe not the QB because the Lakers sign a 38 year old PG. :lmao GOAT!!! :lmao


in 2 games back dude looks pretty good...imagine what he will look like with some real run time and burn on the court....he may not be a great defensive player but what he provides on the offensive end by way of running our offense more than compensates on the defensive end. I expect us to start winning all the close games we previously lost....we're starting to build something very special...Lookout NBA

Yeah let's see how long he lasts playing 38 minutes a night with a bad knee.

[Koolaid_Man]

Yeah let's see how long he lasts playing 38 minutes a night with a bad knee.

we'll stress test him and then pull back....we need to see what we have as a unit....Nash looks good and he's not even running full speed yet...because his IQ is so high it keeps the opponents off balance...and also now they have to play both ends of the court....they didn't have to do that with Duhon running the offense....I'm happy with we are today...it's something good and tangible to build on

Nash was out the whole season til now, Gasol is just back after two weeks of being hurt, Dwight not 100%, multiple coaching changes....it's still early we're OK

[irishock]

This game is unwatchable.

Stern and the media should stop trying to push a LeBron-Durant rivalry when it's just not in their character to feud.

might be more than just a routine STD... just saying... lol

:lol

...toward losing in the 1st or 2nd round.

Please. Any team with Bryant and Howard should at least be in the playoff picture.

This is what the world wants to see

Kobe vs Lebron
Gasol vs Bosh
Nash vs Wade
Dwight vs Himself
Artest vs Allen
Jamison vs Lewis

dantoni vs Spo

Which world?

[racm]

Miami has more fouls than OKC. Tbh, LeBron's status as Stern's golden boy hasn't improved since Durant came in.

part of it is Durant, the other part is Stern was instrumental in screwing over Seattle. I'm sure he'd love to see this new market establish itself with a championship.

A team with a 3 time DPOY and a 2 time Finals MVP shouldn't need a 5 game winning streak just to make it to .500, fwiw.

Regarding the Lakers, they won't be won in the post-season, either.

In the middle of nowhere? why not help Memphis, which is more populated and was also a relocated Northwest team?

Rather see Knicks and Spurs instead

they shouldn't but it's where we are...our pieces need time to jell and I like what I'm seeing at this point...it's called point break...things are starting to break in our favor...I'm pleased with our development even though we have a lot more work to do....Kobe was great today...even at 34 yrs of age no one has an answer for that guy...He's simply amazing

Why would the world want to see a LeBron sweep his way to ring #2?

it's much easier to hook up the Thunder than those Grizzlie teams, Presti has put together a great team, all they need is a little extra nudge. It's all conjecture, I'm just saying it's more than Durant that is receiving ref help, the whole team has favored status.

mid..I feel like dancing in the rain....

Very friendly you are today. Christmas spirit and all that? Got some good presents?

Crate of bananas possibly?

as a Laker and Kobe fan the risk is worth the reward....If Kobe beats Lebron at 34 all positive talk about Lebron is forever muted...if he loses then well it just means it's Kobe 5>Lebron 2 - lol

Because the world always wants to watch the Lakers, win or lose. This shouldn't have to be explained to you.

My dad got me something nice...but I don't want to discuss it..lest I should appear to be bragging. Not my style

[Koolaid_Man]

:lmao

I'm genuinely perpelxed that you guys still think that's funny....even in the most racist base case I just don't see it

[Koolaid_Man]

mid...keep checking my team out...I suspect we'll be moving the proverbial football chains real soon... ;-) wink wink

Seriously... Clippers/Heat would easily be the most entertaining and watchable Finals matchup tbh....

[ElNono]

That nigga Lebron needs to ask to be traded or plan for a sequel to 'The Decision'... this league is way too predictable otherwise

Sup Nono... CP3 will be bringing the Kang to Lob City in 2014, that'll be interesting tbh :lol
