Idk if we'll beat the Nets without DD. Curious as to why you think we'll get slapped by the Magic.

[jays_fever]

Just a random gut feeling, team hasn't really had an ugly loss this year (out of it the entire game, not really losing against a bad opponent) and just seems due for one. If I had to guess it's going to come against a team like the Magic. Could the Jazz as well.

Well there's no way Demar would have ( or has ever) got that call on the last play of the game. Im not really upset that they lost that game, it's very hard in this league not to drop the occasional game to a bad opponent and Kobe seems to always kill us. But from reading some of the posts here, the refs weren't the greatest last night

 

I felt that throughout the game the raps were far too focusedn what Kobe was doing and gave him way to much respect. They basically let him do what he wanted the whole game without getting in his face. There were stretches where they did press him and that's when they were successful.

Agree 100%. Was saying this when the game was going on. JJ doesn't seem to be back to where he was before the injury. I think getting used to DD not being out there will take a few games but this team should be able to make the adjustments and continue to be a very good team.

Looks like Cousins is questionable tonight with a virus. He's missed 2 in a row already so lets hope he makes it 3! Would certainly help with DD out.

[Horses Fart]

Good start...16-4. Lets keep it going.

Rosssssssss!

[Orgfiller]

Ross is on fire!

[SpeedyGose]

oh my god, Ross had Staukus on skates

[Horses Fart]

Ross lookin good.

[dineke]

If only Ross knew how to get to the line he would be a star.

[jays_fever]

Ross lighting it up, still no FT's though

[jays_fever]

They actually just doubled Ross 27 feet away from the basket on the catch

[Horses Fart]

Starting to go to s***! Come on by's!

[SpeedyGose]

This right here is why Ross usage rate needs to go up. Once he gets more aggressiveness to go into the paint he can be such a beast mixed with that quickness and range he already has.

[Horses Fart]

WTF...Tyler didnt touch him.

[SpeedyGose]

Lou isn't playing too well tonight. I think Casey needs to go back to Ross soon

 

Literally the next whistle he did, good job Casey

[Horses Fart]

Boom Shakka Lakka JJ

[Horses Fart]

JJ looks like he's back from his injury.

[Horses Fart]

Sacramento.

2 Crazy statlines tonight. Rondo with 2 Pts, 12 REB, 19 AST and 7TO.

 

Kobe with the triple double-12 PTS, 13 AST and 10TO.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Solid win but doubt we get that if Boogie is in the lineup. Regardless, I'll take it.

 

Ross and GV are stepping up huge with Demar out. Ross still needs to attack the rim way more though. Don't think he even got to the line once last night.

Sacramento.

 

I hate wrestling but even I have to admit that's top level heel right there.

My one worry is that Lowry appears to be playing a huge amount of hero ball. He was successful in the last few possessions scoring but there was very little ball movement. He's taken a ton of shots the last two games.

 

Effective but it can't last.

Maybe he's not trying hard enough? Could be like Demar who just gave up, faking an injury...
