2012-13 Los Angeles Lakers Thread

Wow. Lakers are playing amazing inspired ball. Crashing the boards on both ends. Flying around all over the court. Smart passes and team ball like I haven't seen probably at any point this season. 21 point lead with just over 2 to go in the 3rd.

Lakers were up 26 when the the bench got emptied and the starters sat down. Amazing game. I hope to see more of this in the future.




And FWIW, Lakers fell into the 8th spot with this win. Also back to .500 for the 3rd time this season. 15-15.

That was the best performance of the season, IMO. In other games where they've won by blowout, they've been hot from 3. That wasn't the case. But they were playing so well in so many other ways that Portland couldn't hang. The Blazers were playing really well coming into this game. Hopefully a sign of things to come. They're playing pretty good ball right now.

hah this is one of my favourite GIFs

Lakers vs sixers starting in 10 minutes.

Lakers start the game horrifically ice cold. Can't buy a bucket.

Lakers shook of the early rust to make it a close game at the half. Then came out in the 3rd and look horrific again.

Gasol is horrible. Wow. Right now he would have to be the most overpaid player in the league. ( I might be missing a couple but he is really awful right now)

Horrible shooting night for the Lakers. Defense was hideous, but that's to be expected.



And again, the Lakers fail to rise over the .500 mark.

How did Howard play 39 minutes and only have one made FG? Seems impossible almost.

He played like s**t. Like everybody else. lol

The Lakers need to find their groove. They put a game or two together then s**t themselves. I still don't understand why Jamison isn't playing.
