Hobson's Choice: taking what is available or nothing at all. Personally, in a situation like the Bags getting number 18 and the world ending...
About 3/4 of the way through Game 2 I said to myself, Damn if MIN wouldn't have given BOS a harder time. I think MIN - and yea, DEN - would've...
From West's autobiography, West By West: My Charmed, Tormented Life, after winning Finals MVP even though the Lakers lost: during the following...
I see that too: he was so quick, picked his spots, had fantastic shooting range, and could create space. In fact, "create space" wasn't even a...
This is the best place to commiserate about West; I appreciate all the thoughts and props ya'll are giving him. As a very olde dude, every now and...
Yep. And maybe I'm reading way too much into this thing, but Dub-J not seeing AD's D suggests he's too offensive-minded? When, if you ever ask me...
I'm not, have never been one to get all unhinged about who the Lakers will hire as HC. Is it a foregone thing that Kenny Atkinson is going to CLE?...
The Bags won both games: one by 19 (in January, before Mavs got Gafford) and by 28 (before Gafford was moved by Kidd to the starting lineup).
Well, I guess one team was due to blow out the other, but if you told me DAL would blow out MIN in MIN, I'd say no way. But once it was 40-19...
Yep! I conveniently blocked out of my mind that Rick Fox had been a Bag from like 1991-97? And then a Laker who was mágnifico for us, 1997-2004....
MIN wins Game 4 in DAL to stave off elimination. Ant was more aggressive, though Kidd's gameplan of 4 guys collapsing into the paint as soon as...
Okay, okay: IND was missing Tyrese. But they were up 9 in the 4th Q, at home, in a must-win. At 3:33 Siakam made a shot to put them up 4, 102-98....
Just looked it up: Russ at vet min and we only have to die 798 deaths. Still: I'd rather die the 798 than have Brick and his "character" back in...
If he's willing to play backup at vet min, it makes biz sense maybe. But I hope not, for the reasons that some players just rub you the wrong way...
DAL up 8 at half; MIN needed a big 3rd Q and they got it: tied going into the 4th. With 5 mins left MIN led 104-102. Either win or you're effed,...
Gawd, oh oh o lawd I hope not. Some players you just don't want to see in a Laker uniform, and CP3 is one of them, for me. Your mileage may vary.
That is indeed a stupid effing rule. It's almost a glaring loophole, and if Irving knew this, it was devious yet brilliant. It had a lot to do...
So: BOS goes up 3-0. Won by 3 in IND. IND was up 18, 84-66 with 6:04 left in the 3rd and then, the Bags ratcheted up their D and it was about as...
Another helluva Game in the WCF. Not boring at all. DAL's defense has really impressed me. Ant cannot get to the rim and they barely let him get...
I refuse to accept it until they win 4 against DAL or MIN. But trust me: All year I've seen your points about the Bags and yea: all year they've...
