Hopefully George is here next season and BI/Kuz grow into that role.


George could get us some of those calls.

I thought Randle was obviously fouled over and over again (Ingram as well) with no whistle but it is possible I am biased. But it looked that way to me.

Agreed again, the refs swallowed their whistles immediately in the 4th whenever the Lakers got into the paint. BI, Thomas, and Randle all got the (bleep) beat out of them the last 12 minutes with no calls.

Can’t blame the coach.

Let’s once again start at the easiest shot in basketball, the freethrow.

17/24 vs 24/25.


I normally don't blame coach, but this game is on Luke. If Lopez isn't spreading the floor, making 3s, he's useless. So why take an effective Zubac out and put and ineffective Lopez in. Even Lopez by now knows he sucks! Lopez in game essentially over. Rotations like that are how coaches get fired. Magic probably digging for pink slips after seeing that substitution.

If you don't think we're not good then why watch, are you a fan?


No. Im not.

I've just been buying my time around here since 2006

hey congrats guy, oooh, 2006.
You get a gold star, good job.


I'd like to thank the little people...


I am sure IT appreciates your recognition....

You're on fire tonight.


it's all in fun....nothing to harsh....I would not go into the fact that he was 3 of 15....0 of 5 from 3....or his 5 tunrovers.....got too much respect for Phil and his love for UW to bring any of that up.

it was hilarious....at least more so than your thin skin that drops those same stupid lines to anyone that has been on LG for a long time and points it out to you when you claim they are not fans or something similar....wasn't you that said when you see someone with a lot of posts, that just indicates they have nothing worthwhile to say....or something like that? It seems to be a trigger for you.

nope, wasn't me inspector Clouseau.

Guess Zubac will be Luke's next JC where he doesn't give him a consistent role or minutes till we lose 9 straight and he realizes he needs to make a change

They've got Dal, Sac & Atl after the break. Wouldn't be surprised if they go 1-2 or even 0-3.

Lopez is legitimately the worst rebounding big man I have ever seen.

Ugh. Had to peace out a bit before posting.

Zubac was on fire. Should have closed.

Why haven't we played this kid a little more this season?

Is Luke so in love with small ball that he considers this kid irrelevant?

Kudos to Big Zu for a very solid game. Less than 20 minutes playing time. 19 points. 11 rebounds. 8 for 8 shooting ffs.

Brook in comparison: 25 minutes. 2 for 5. All 3 point shots, no scoring down low. 6 points. 2 rebounds.


I'm really disappointed in how suddenly Randle, Hart, Ingram and Lopez are all ineffective. Yeah Randle had 23 points. And we lost ground to Minnesota by 17 points with him on the floor.

Welp. Nice 8 game break. See ya then Lonzo.

Everybody was tired, Zubac was fresh and played his tail off but he doesn't get but a few minutes in the second half. smh

If there's one thing I can count on here, its IG posting trade rumors and you bashing Luke/Magic at any given opportunity

That wasn't me stalker, that was my dog he must've logged on while I was at work.
Meanwhile you're looking up my posts and even though I'm flattered I'm straight, and have a girlfriend so definitely not interested.
You have a nice night girlfriend, toodles!

I’ll take the opposite bet. 3-0 at worst 2-1.

I agree. We've actually been in a rough part of our schedule with very few home games. After March we should be winning a couple games. As long as we are 11th worst then I will be happy.
