Sheesh, the Lakers are just really that good now. 7-0 on the road, their best start on the road in franchise history.

They're 3-3 at home. How is that not just as relevant?

Look at who they've played. Their last 9 games, not a single likely playoff team among them.

How dare you call out the Lakers Flavor Flave of Celticsblog! Blasphemy!
Rofl, man, what an apt title that would be ;D

Suns vs Grizz is a good game.

Chris Paul no longer has the quickness to get to his spots at will.  Age gets everybody eventually.

He can’t match up with Ja.

Let's hope Nesmith picks it up at some point. But, yeah, in hindsight, I think if Danny knew Bane would be available at #30, it would have made a lot of sense to trade #14 for a future similarly rated pick.

I don't think Bane has star written all over him or anything, but at least he would be playable right now.

Yeah, I always though solid role player shooter off the bench, NBA ready.

You don't draft players to be playable in a contending team's rotation after 11 games. You draft them to be developed to reach their ceiling years from now....on their 2nd or 3rd contract.

How about we give Nesmith more than a few games into his rookie year before deciding, in hindsight, it would have been better trading that pick for a future pick. Nesmith could well have a Terry Rozier-like developmental curve.

It would be nice if we can only face one of MIL or BKN in the playoffs.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

not if Cs are trying to get to the ECF .... if you avoid one of them you probably pull Philly. There is no easy rooute to the finals out of the east.
