    On the bright side, the loss actually benefits our Portland draft pick.

    Can't tell if coach gave them a nice play or not. Hell, we were running around in a state of confusion.

    Tell you what - the Lakers are not deep at all. Sure, they were missing James and Davis, but our bench murdered them. Heck, we only suited up 8 guys. Fun game to watch. A lot more fun if we'd pulled out a win.

    Yep, he was the player of the game. Made some tough threes. I wanted him with the ball.

    Just watched it again, THT was definitely in the paint for more than 3 seconds before Kuzma's game winner.

    Refs are cowards

    Silas doesn’t understand his players’ strengths and weaknesses. Olynyk is versatile, but driving the ball from the perimeter is definitely not his strength.

    Damn this was a lively thread. I watched the game but I was working and couldn't join the bros. Too bad we couldn't get the win but fun game.

    Higher possibility of the Lakers finishing ahead of Portland.

    I'm still mad about this. We deserved that W today.



    But hey, at least we'll have a L2M report that says the refs were cowards. That'll be good.

    Looks like Olynyk was even calling the 3 seconds as vid cuts off. Silas definitely is.

    And yeah, definitely dragging pivot foot, too.

    Yeah, dribbling the ball off of your foot is usually not a good play.

    I'm sure it went just as Silas drew it up.
