No one loves his name on the injury report as much as AD.
Although, LeGrandpa is giving Day to Davis a run for his money, but at least Lebron is 37 and not 28. |

How much should we be paying Davis at 37? |

At this rate, AD would be fortunate to get to his age 32 season. |

Saw something last night about his thumb…so it was only a matter of time before something came up. |
Right. Last night it was his thumb getting jammed in game which is part of an existing known issue with his thumb got jammed a few games back. Where did the knee come from?
When we were initially signing him my comment was that yes he seems to be clearly talented but he seems to always be injured. Now to his credit he is wanting to play through most of his injuries this year given what happened to him last year, but man… :/ |

This team has played 26 games together going against teams with years of experience and chemistry.
Warriors were pushovers last season and now they can't lose, that came with time.
This team needs more games under their belt. For now they just need to play with heart on both ends and hope that overcomes their lack of playing time together. |

This could be a real soul crushing loss.. if that happens
These guys will start to doubt each other
saw a really sad graphic today about we are the slowest team with the highest amount of standing around time for players |

The few times a player cuts to the basket it's almost a guaranteed layup/dunk or wide open 3 on a kick out yet they hardly ever do it and instead just make the game as hard as possible every..... single... possession. For so many veterans littered throughout the roster there bbiq seems pretty atrocious for about 50-80% of every game. With the leftover percentage they usually play well and give you just enough of a glimpse to keep watching and have hope but then the atrocious side comes back out and spits in your face as they lose yetttttt again to a team they had no right to lose to.
Watching the Boston game and then Memphis it's clearly an effort thing roster wide so when AD or Bron especially shows laziness it just trickles down and is mimicked by the rest of the team it seems like.
I'll continue rooting for this team until there season is officially over and I do feel like there's still hope but man they are unlikable as hell to watch most of the time. |

I remember Shaq/Kobe Lakers being called Team Lightswitch at times.. they knew they were so good they coasted too often and thought they could flip a switch and destroy people... they were young and most oftentimes correct... This team has the ego but not the Testosterone ... lol
Reminded me of when I was like 33? Did a lot of weightlifting but not much cardio. I loved coming out of the gym and seeing the neighbors Jack Russell Terrier that looked like it was on steroids .. .It would challenge me to a chase.. I would laugh so hard trying to catch that thing.. bet our old vets have some of the same thoughts against these young bucks racing the floor |

Turnovers and missed shots will put your defense in transition, which is tough obviously, but watch every Laker not names Ellington jog back.
Again, this extends the transition window into a “semi transition” phase where guys are back, but not set, and driving lanes are open.

| Lakers are fine. If they are under .500 at the All Star break then I would panic. |

For the love of god, why why why why why.....
Why is THT in the starting lineup? WE NEED SPACING.

So Lebron the only shooter and even that is being generous depending on if he is on/off with his shot  |

The good thing is that the knee soreness was affecting his energy and jump shot, so hopefully once he comes back he can re-gain his jump shot.

LMAO at this starting lineup. That's the easiest defensive assignment that OKC will get all year.
Bron gonna take a (bleep) load of threes |
