Make sure the Lakers lose tonight to give Cavs first place.

 

[Mexi]

excellent chance they lose

Farmar is hurt
Artest is hurt
Lamar is hurt
Kobe is really hurt
Pau is out
Vujacic is hurt
Morrison didnt play last night because of a bug

yay

 

[cruzg24]

Cant wait for the Mavs to play tonight, we are so jekyll and hyde this year its not even funny. We'll see how we show up, I see a win cuz Dirk goes off after getting his 20k

 

[MapleLeaf]

Dirk <3

 

[VC15]

If we don't get the #1 pick in the draft this year, I will be 100% convinced that the NBA is a complete joke.

 

[elcheato]

Because ping pong balls didn't go the Nets way?

 

[Mexi]

wow

kobe played only the 1st quarter in the 1st half and took 1 flat shot.
he looked awful

then played the 2nd half better until the 4th where it caught up with him again.
he missed like 2 shots horribly then the mavs tied it, then kobe hits a clutch ass jumper to give the lakers the lead for good

LO/Artest/Bynum did work.

nice W.
this team when their mind is right is superb

 

[Mexi]

oh and Lakers, 3000 W's

only NBA team to do so

 

[elcheato]

Half the lakers are injured, and you're about to start the toughest part of your schedule lol. SMH at only like 14 road games so far.

 

[Mexi]

8 game road trip coming up

Cleveland and Boston sandwiched with the Knicks, Raptors, Wizards, Pacers, Sixers, then after Boston Memphis

 

[elcheato]

Cavs are wearing those throwbacks we wore a few days ago with the gold letters vs the Lakers.

 

[Mexi]

so that means we wear white or gold

gay

It should be more like the NFL where luck does not completely determine how a lottery team fills a need through the draft. We are on pace to break the 76'ers record for worst record in NBA history (record is 9-73). We are on pace to finish 5-77, no one can say a team that bad does not deserve the #1 pick and we aren't even tanking.

Well be prepared to think the NBA is a complete joke, because it's been a while since the worst team got the #1 pick in the draft.

 

[VC15]

I'm already somewhat convinced that it is a joke anyway... The only thing that will de-rail that is if we get John Wall.

 

[Mexi]

but that could lead to tanking

in the NFL there are only 16 games as opposed to 82 NBA games
its easier to tank in the NBA than in the NFL

and a high draft pick in the NBA is totally different than in the NFL, you know that
dont have to worry about a huge contract, and in the NFL there are so many great players in the draft a high pick really doesnt matter as opposed to in the NBA where around pick 12 or so the draft gets lame

Speaking of tanking, Captain Obvious John Lucas was talking about how the Cavs did everything they could to lose in the 02-03 season to get LeBron lol

 

[Mexi]

lol john lucas

btw, have you seen the clippers this season?
he's now an assistant and dude gets fired up on the sideline

 

[yezzir]

Love how they all were determined to do good today right after a game where LO and Artest couldn't do anything really. And Kobe and Pau need to get healthy.
