Lakers (14-25) at Celtics (14-26) Game #41 1/16/14

We didn't score in the last three minutes of the game.

Not to stir the pot, or anything, but wasn't that what Ainge was looking to alleviate when he investigated trading Rondo for CP3?

True. But we had a few open shots in that stretch, I dont think we can put that on Rondo. We just have to hit those open shots.

It amazes me that we're still a top 10 defense... with that defensive effort we won't have to worry about winning anymore games this year

Celtics should of kept going to KO. AB was not the guy you give the basket to. Even rondo in the end there should of let Olynyk shoot the hot hand

We're not, we have fallen to 15th in defensive rating.

[satch]

Kendal Marshall got 19 points. This should not happen.

[YoungOne87]

good thing to see is that rondo took that shot

It wasn't Marshall creating much of anything.

We couldn't guard Gasol in the post, had to double. This meant open threes after a few passes everytime.

[Tr1boy]

We lost tonight on the Lakers being on fire shooting the threes.

I can live with that. But in the end of the game, the celts should of gone with the hot hand.

Bradley had a horrible night and should of not been out there. That is Stevens Bad

[Yoki_IsTheName]

Well, someone has to start. I will appreciate the positives that came out.

- Rondo is back, and within a few more games, should be back to THE Rajon Rondo

- Kelly Olynyk showed some promise albeit against not so good competition, but that's a confidence booster. So is Phil Pressey

- Crash Wallace is back, for a game at least.

It's an embarrassing loss, but I enjoyed that game. Which is more than I can say for the past few ones. Even though we missed some shots we could make down the stretch, the offense was clicking.

Yep, that "old" dude killed us.

Edit. Fafnir already said what I posted, so... delete.

This is why we need Asik (non quitter), Danny! Give that Brooklyn pick to Houston already.

Tanking or not, it always sucks losing to the Lakers.

yup

[LakersFan_33]

Good game - Half the Lakers fan-base is mad because their tanking took a hit with this win. Lakers won, but even if we weren't tanking, a win or loss wouldn't mean anything different to me because of who was on the court, and where the franchises are right now.

God, no.

Tuff loss

KO .......needed this confidence building game ..even if was against  a nobody.......but Gasol was healthy and played well

I actually believe LA s record is better without Kobe ......they put on a better show with out his ball hogging antics.


Well.....this puts us closer to Parker. And pushes LA away.......but make no mistake LA is selling off Gasol to get a lottery pick if they can find a buyer


Again we are exposed with no center to control the paint. .

You mean because the future of our franchise looks so much brighter than yours right now?

Could've had a chance if the refs didn't eff up that jumpball call..

CLEARLY was off Johnson..
