Lakers (5-5) at Celtics (9-2) Game #12 11/8/17

Marc Jackson: if the Lakers just fixed 20 to 25 plays, they could have won.

Lol. Is that supposed to be encouraging?

my jaw dropped when he said that too.  20-25 bone headed plays.  This laker team is not smart, with the exception of Ball, they really don't share the ball.  If the losses start to pile up, I could see this team just spiraling...

Right!! Almost spit the wine out of mouth! Oh, No Hayward, Tatum, Big Al and Kyrie was seated good portion of second ...lol..20-25 plays fixed vs second string and they could win 😁😁

Clarkson is a much better player than Ball. The Lakers blew the game by taking him out down the stretch.

Supposedly he can't play defense but he had twice as many steals as Smart despite 8 less minutes.  And he had the same number of rebounds (so far) despite all of Smart's intensity

Pretty sure Kyrie leads the league in steals so far. By this logic, he's then clearly the best defender in the league. 

Only a fool would make the implication that Clarkson is a better defender than Smart.

Let's say Clarkson is playing Smart one on one to 100. Clarkson shoots 51% and Smart shoots 31%. Quick. Who played better defense?

Clarkson shoots significantly better from 3 point land than Smart shoots overall. He's that much better.

One guy doesn't drag his team down. The other does.

You are trying to avoid answering him lol. Getting more steals doesnt mean you are the better defender. Im pretty sure Kyrie Irving isnt the best defender in the NBA.

Underrated hero tonight, Marcus Morris. His 18 points were huge for us tonight.

Had no idea he scored that much 

[positivitize]

This is why you step on teams neck and crush them when you have them down. Shame on CBS for not calling timeout to stem the Laker's comeback.

Lakers are gonna win this sad to say. No consistency. Where's the D man.

Sick prognostication brah. THE SKY IS FALLING!

Please.

Yep. On a night like tonight I'd really like to see him more with the second unit. He could bring a stable vet scoring presence to that unit.

People are avoiding me on this one, aren't they?  The Celts forced more TOs. I give him that. He did well on assists to TOs and he got a block. But Smart is to shooting what Tebow is to throwing a football.

I just hope we hear some good news regarding the injuries.

Hope Tatum is okay and Horford can return soon.

again, your logic....first you talk defense, now you talk offense as if your argument was connected. maybe let's all follow the lead of another poster and go get some wine.

Surprised Semi and not Brown played most of 4th quarter crunch time. Brown not inserted back until about 3 min left.

Lol you sound senile bro.

Smart isn't letting Clarkson shoot 51% on him in one on one, and Smart is going to take him to the post and shoot 60%.

Quit hating on Smart, I mean come on.

Right. Overrated defender. Horrid on offense. Two parts of basketball connected to the same player. But hey. He's intense. He tries hard or something.
