Lakers (34-8) at Celtics (27-14) Game #42 1/20/20

Team passing is elite today

Tatum high lob passes, drive and kicks

Excellent

[jpotter33]

McGee, Davis, Howard, and Cousins......yeah like anyone has a great chance of stopping the Lakers this year barring injury or luck.

I mean - that's one star, two rotation players, and someone who may not even be capable of playing at this level anymore given his injuries. Not sure what's so special about that other than they're big. They're not especially talented, and you're seeing what a smaller, quicker, perimeter-oriented team can do to them.

Steven's treating this like a playoff game...just an 8 man rotation. No rookies in this game.

Fakers are running 10 guys

Wait, I'm reading some of these posts, is Cousins returning for LAL this season? I thought he was out for the year...

[droopdog7]

Danny needs to add bench scoring AND another big man to this team by the deadline.

If he doesn't do that (or only makes a move for one thing), that should tell you everything

And what is that?  No trades?  Not a contender?  Something else?

Combination of not believing we're a contender and Danny not really trying for a deep playoff run.

I mean, they still could go on a deep run, but a lot will have to break our way seeing how good these other teams are

Perhaps.  But I’ve yet to see a proposed trade that makes sense.  Either people don’t want to give up value, or they think other teams are trying to help us.

[slamtheking]

phantom foul. 

[Tr1boy]

Smart 3 pt shooting for real?

He is lookingike a sharpshooter

After all of these years

[Neurotic Guy]

Kanter and Tatum with big buckets.  nice to add a little more cushion

Want to see them hold a lead.  Feels like LA can turn up the jets when they want.  But maybe C’s equal to the task.  Keep it up Boston

He's been seen doing shooting warmups and stuff, but not sure about his actual status.

Can't imagine how immobile he'll be

[Phantom255x]

phantom foul.

Who is this, Tony Brothers?

Marc Jackson can't stop praising every single play the Lakers make. Disgusting. He makes no effort at all to hide his bias.

He's a terrible commentator. As are most of them.

Why would Jackson be biased toward the lakers?  Maybe the bias is with us?

its on TNT guys no mark jacson , its chris webber with marv albert

His only pro-Celtics bias is his pro-Kemba bias, as far as I can hear

Wait a minute - you guys know that's not Marc Jackson commentating right? Lol That's Chris Webber, who's just about as bad, but not quite.

Lol. Cousins showed himself to be a complete negative last playoffs.

And we're currently up on the Lakers.. ?

Cousins was injured in the playoffs. Hello try again.

Its the nba, nobody holds a lead.

TP for telling the difference ....  two sides of same coin if you ask me.
