| normally, i'd all up and armed on thread like this. nothing pisses more than opposing dbag coach or players run up score against the Lakers. but this is the freaking Washing Wizards for god sake, has no any bad blood with the Lakers, a nobody basically. no one will remember this loss a week from now. |

Lakers remind me of John Cena. Hyped up, but always putting people over. |

After Morris got injured in the first half I believe they only had 2 players on their bench due to injuries/trade, etc.
I heard some Hornet fans complain the night before that the Lakers did the same think leaving Zo out there to get a triple double in garbage time.
Simple solution is to show up with energy, even on a back to back, and not get blown out. |

Yep it’s pro sports. It’s silly to run up the score like that but you can’t complain when you put out the effort that the Lakers did. |

I’ve never understood this argument. I wouldn’t play a star in a blowout for injury/health reasons but if you don’t like that an opposing player is cooking you then stop him from cooking.

I don’t think it was about Wall trying to cook us, there has been chatter that Brooks can be on the hot seat so he was trying to hope Wall can destroy us for 48 minutes so he can talk about how his team won Impressively against a LeBron lead team. |

Who cares why he was in there? I don’t see why the Wizards are under any obligation to take their foot off the gas just because we couldn’t get it together.

I agree....I hate the "unwritten rules"....especially the one where a team that has the game won takes a shot clock violation instead of shooting. If they wanted the game to be 47 minutes and 53 seconds, then that is the amount of time they would have put on the clock. |

Zo was out there specifically to get the triple double. LeBron was jacking up shots in the final seconds to get 50 a couple weeks ago. I remember plenty of games over the years where the Lakers had guys out there padding stats for triple doubles. It happens. I understand the complaint about doing it but the complaint shouldn't come from someone who also does it. |
