Lakers aren't playing well enough to beat the Blazers and the bad refs on a back to back.

**Basel** · 10-31-2012, 09:53 PM

Again, this is disappointing.

jazzy1 · 10-31-2012, 10:00 PM

Its gonna take a good while before this teams starts winning consistently. Kobe is playing but his foot is sore Nash is now hurt and this silly ass offense is preventing any cohesiveness.

we'll be middle of the pack till March

He definitely has had a bad game.

I usually defend the refs but he definitely has a wild hair up his ass tonight. Maybe he didn't get enough candy from trick-or-treating earlier.

LOL Blazers announcers are hilarious we've not played well against the Blazers up there in the regular season but we own the Blazers in the playoffs.

I am concerned about this Lakers team though injuries and lack of continuity with the silly offense

Dont worry Blazers fans Batum isn't that good neither is Lillard nor Mtthews and Stotts will drive you in a ditch soon enough.

**Ron** · 10-31-2012, 10:18 PM

Well, I picked the Blazers to get 120, so a small victory there.

Seriously, these guys either are deficient on defense or they are not trying. Portland had 92 points after three quarters. Lakers better improve and soon on defense or we are looking at 15-67.

I can't believe Mychael Thompson believes this team can go 18-2 in their first 20. Guess we better start our 18-game winning streak against the Clippers on Friday, who just beat up a very good Memphis team.

Patience....

I see Jamel disappeared. Just as I knew he would.

**Ron** · 10-31-2012, 10:24 PM

Oh, and I can have all the patience in the world, but if the Lakers decide they can outscore their pathetic defense, then we are simply in for a long season.

Surely, you cannot disregard their god-awful defensive effort, Sancho.

The difference between Mike Brown in Cleveland and Mike Brown in LA is now he can get trashed in Spanish too.

I agree Ron. Defensively we're not there. The offense looked much better when we weren't turning the ball over though.

**King Sancho Fantastic** · 10-31-2012, 10:29 PM

Oh and the patience thing wasn't directed solely at you Ron. That was more towards our entire fan base.

I was happy with our offense tonight. They went away from Princeton more and that was what resulted in the better offensive output.

Real happy with the great improvement with Howard's free throw shooting. Much nicer touch.

Both Ebanks and MWP collecting fouls in very short times were a caricature of the game. They need to keep their emotions in check.

Damian Lillard joins Oscar Robertson and Isiah Thomas as only players in NBA history with at least 20 points and 10 assists in NBA debut.

Defense represent!
