Just glad he isn't beating that horse to death and focusing more on his mid range game and taking it to the rim. I agree he needs to get better though, draw their bigs out.

Good Game. They did what they had to do.

After a rough 1st quarter, we took control of this game and never gave it up. Gotta give JR some credit -- I still can't stand him but the dude came back with his best overall effort in a long time. Hopefully he can sustain it and get back to being a regular contributor.

Impressed with James Anderson. I remember this guy well in college at K-State. Classic example here of a guy with more than enough talent to play in the NBA but for whatever reason he hasn't stuck yet. The DL and Europe are filled with guys like this. There's just many more good players out there than there are roster spots on NBA teams. Maybe soon we revisit the idea of league expansion by another few teams...Glad to see Anderson's getting a chance to show what he can do. The man's talented. I thought he looked very good tonight for the Sixers.

Nice win tonight. Indiana next, right? Good barometer game for us.

That's what Said. LOL

It's pretty sad actually, never learned how to best use Melo's talents or DHow for that matter..Gasol is lost..Still no defense..Guys can't wait to get out of LA..The system will save us all..Still defending him, huh, even after mountains of evidence that he only knows one way..Riley adjusted to his roster..Now u are riding Woody, that part is comical..

You're post is so full of ISH it's not even funny. The Lakers were actually winning games before they had all the injuries. Melo sure does seem to flourish when he plays the way MDA was asking him to play tho!!! Playing in the flow of the offense, looking for teammates, more catch and shoot, PnR plays verses ISO's. This is more like Olympics Melo than the jab step, jab step, force it Melo. This is what MDA was trying to get him to do. WTF are you talking about?

You always have a thousand excuses for MDA...Sixers and Boston were winning games early in the season too...MDA wanted Melo to catch and shoot (quickly) from the corner...FCUKed up his game..Amazing..Dude can create, get to the rim, ISO( a bad word all of a sudden, ask Jordan, Bird, Kareem, Hakeem, Magic, etc,what it means to their HOF careers),PNR, all of the above..He is playing the best basketball of his career and now u say thats what MDA wanted...MDA tried to make him fit in a box...Your proxy Woodson rants are all in defense of MDA's legacy, every one here knows that...The thing u cant run from are the results...18-6, then 54 wins last year, transform the way Melo plays the game, develop young players, etc...Nothing MDA ever has done here, he failed and is now the Lakers problem...We can make noise in the playoffs this year and looking forward to it under Woody!!!
