lol reaves is so bad. Why we were people hyping him this offseason? Looks like Marty conlon out here

Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in awhile! The vanilla Mark Blount, if you will.
It is also silly. Reaves is averaging basically 15/4.5/6 with a 60.6TS%.  He is a bad defender, but he is perfectly fine as a 3rd offensive option with solid all around skills.

Reaves is a big reason the Lakers are .500 despite monster season from Davis and good health and performance from Lebron. For every basket he scores efficiently he gives one up. He can't be your third best palyer.

Didn't he basically sign for the MLE, though?  For that price versus really efficient production, he's a steal.

His contract is fine value for him. He is being paid as a 5th starter or 6th or 7th man. The problem is the lakers thought he could be a lot more than that and he has been terribly exposed on defense. Needs to add a lot of muscle.

They going full tank now. He had been starting for them and playing well. No reason to push him out if they were tryin to win.

Queta?  I guess as a 2-way, he is not actually on the roster.

Admittedly, they got screwed on some more incompetent officiating down the stretch. They fouled Maxey out on a bogus call, leaving the Sixers with no offense down the stretch. Even the horribly biased Hawks announcers were commenting how bad that foul call was.

It was my doing.  I had a 4-way parlay Monday, and missed only because the Celtics didn’t win, thanks to the refs.  I learned my lesson and bet on the Sixers tonight, staying away from the C’s game.  The refs cost me money again, but this time it worked to my team’s favor.

Warriors just got trounced by the Pelicans, 141-105. Golden State has lost 6 out of the last 8 and they are now 3 games under .500.  :-[

Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

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.
