Game Day: Lakers (0-1) @ Suns (0-0), Wed 10/29/14

Somehow I'd failed to mention this. Plumlee got beat up pretty good by Jordan Hill. Those who said Alex might start over Plum at some point this year knew something I didn't.

I can't get over it! It's so much to take in!

Making fun of Nash's injured back? Not cool, even if he is on the fucking Lakers.

it's a fake injury. he broke his back carrying bags. isnt that already a hint? just like pau with vertigo. they make stuff up, but they want other to know it's a joke (wink, wink), so they make the silliest injury excuses.

nash is basically being okafored.

[EDC]

Oh lighten the fuck up guys. Laughing at a poster isn't hating on the guy. It isn't like he is in the hospital fighting for his life. He is sitting pool side living the good life. All that is missing from this is a post about how it must be Amare's fault because he only picked up 7 pieces of luggage instead of 10.

[SDC]

the best thing about playing the lakers is that you get a full length highlight video (more than 5 minutes long, TIME WARNER) from youtube by lakers fanatics

One thing I really liked seeing tonight is this part of Bledsoe's line :

9 assists, 1 turnover.

Agreed. Best stat of the night, IMO.

[Xylus]

Some takeaways from tonight's game:

1. I can't get over how much better Eric Bledsoe looks this year compared to last. He looks so much more committed and engaged. His passing and shooting were crisp as fuck. He's leveled up.

2. Alex Fucking Len. Plumlee better start working his ass off, or we're going to have a controversy over who plays that starting position very soon. Len's not as quick as Plumlee, but his length and size are going to make opposing offenses work harder than before.

3. Marcus Fucking Morris. Took on Kobe all night and bested him in efficiency. Love it.

4. Gerald Green had a bad game, which means he's going to take a dump on the Spurs this Friday

5. That Bledsoe ejection got me so fired up. I can't recall Bledsoe getting mad like that ONCE last season, and here he is in the home opener breathing fire.

6. I'm still waiting for Tolliver to show us something

7. Markieff was completely invisible out there, which is fine for this game because we had so many others contributing. But I hope he's a bigger presence in tight games against tougher opponents this season, or we're fucked.

8. Didn't even get to Isaiah Thomas yet. Is it possible for our 6th man to lead us in scoring this season?

The Suns beat the Lakers by 20. So what do the highlights look like on ESPN?

Kobe. Kobe. Kobe. Isaiah Thomas 3. Suns win by 20.

It really is sickening. They do it with all the games. It isn't reporting it is publicity for the most popular teams.

Christ, how many Laker fans are at the game? Its likea 50/50 split in cheers.

Ugh, it is so fucking annoying too.

We've got a LOT of piece-of-shit California transplants here - like a fucking plague.....

i hate the lakers as much as anyone, but let's maybe not generalize that to californians in general... some of them like the suns too i'm sure.

[Xylus]

If anyone finds a video of that Bledsoe ejection, I'd love to see it again.

I think Isaiah Thomas is going to be the biggest reason why Gerald Green becomes expendable. Especially in terms of being that guy who is a huge spark off the bench and can change games in a big way. Plus we have IT3 locked up and on a really great contract.

Not generalizing Californians at all - just talking about the fake transplants from the southern end that've seeped into the state and that have infiltrated every Suns/Lakers game for the past 15+ years to the point of what you heard tonight. Yeah, they're pieces-of-shit - I'm damn surprised no fights have been instigated by the fucks.....

[SwingMan]

I'd like to find a video of how Kobe climbed on Dragic's back with no fucking whistle within city limits.....

[Superbone]

Marcus Morris playing great defense too.

Yes! I was really impressed tonight. He played Kobe as well as anybody can play him.

[Superbone]

I hope we see a different Dragon in the 2nd half. 1-6 for 6 points.

Ask and you shall receive.

gerald green is the modern day version of reggie miller.

tell me which player has a quicker release: klay thompson or green?

[Superbone]

Technical on Kobe. He's frustrated out there.

I bet he's starting to wonder why he didn't just retire.

[SDC]

somebody should start that suns spurs thread. continue the suns spurs pre-season narrative.

[Superbone]

Well we are definitely getting a more emotional Bledsoe.

At least it was cool that Ennis got a quarter plus in his first pro basketball game.

nobody walks away from 24 million. nash wont from his 9 mil.
