New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

[jadis]

Clippers finally pull it out 109-104

Good they continue to win without '2nd man' Kawhi.

 

[WLVCA]

No KL, no Pat Bev, no Ibaka, no Rondo.

PG13 has beed incredible of late and is the No. 1 Clipper in my heart!

For the Rockets, their 25 year old rookie, Jae’Sean Tate, is quite an incredible story. I was rooting for him to play well for Houston in the game

The Reason Jae’Sean Tate Has Defied the Naysayers

There aren’t too many 25-year-old rookies in the NBA. Nor are there many people who have had to overcome as much adversity as Jae’Sean Tate. "A lot of people don’t know that part of my life because I’m always smiling … but it took a lot for me to get that way."

Just checked the Eastern standings now, surprised to see the Knicks locked up there in 4th place. Big turnaround from last year. C's are fighting to stay up at 6th and the race is pretty tight at 5, 6 and 7. C's playing the Nets now with many players not in action for both teams.

better coaching in New York and Randle is becoming a star

Lakers have the 2nd game of their miniseries vs the Mavs today. AD in the first game was like a fish out of water. Seems to have lost everything but his charm and smile as hie shots were errant, his passing was sloppy and he couldn't make free throws. Tough coming back after missing 30 games and to be in shape. Finals start unless than 3 weeks and Lakers are mired in 5th where they will likely play Denver in the first round, Denver without Murray is going to have a problem this year. Injuries have caused havoc to all teams this year

Very true, Steve. And a silent killer even for non injured players - league protocol for being exposed to positive people.

 

[Steve williams]

AD playing a much better game tonight with 12 points at the half

lakers lead 58-46

 

[Steve williams]

End of third...Lalers as usual give up a 17 point lead

Game tied at 79

 

[Steve williams]

what a turn around. All Dallas at the end. Final Mavs 108-93

Mavs in 6th and challenging Laalers for 5th

Totally collapse by Lakers. Up by 17 and lose by 15

Looks like Anthony Davis has recovered well from his injury.

It’s too bad the team hasn’t recovered. Last night was an abomination

LeBron will be back next week

 

[WLVCA]

Clippers play the Pelicans in New Orleans tonight.

Have to play some big man defense against Zion Williamson.

Then they have a showdown game with the Suns on Thursday in Phoenix.

 

[Steve williams]

Lakers in Orlando and take an early 15 point lead and as usual they give up the ball and
the lead and at the end of half

Magic 56 Lakers 50

 

[Steve williams]

A22 point turn around in the 2nd period

 

[Steve williams]

I’m not sold on Tre Drummond

He‘s “ good from far but far from good ”. Definitely better than Gasol but he has poor ball handling skills

 

[Steve williams]

Lakers get their act together and finally win against the lowly Magic

Lakers 114-103

 

[WLVCA]

Clippers appear to be looking ahead to their game with the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday.

Tonight the Pels are crushing them 112-89 with 4:44 left in the game.

 

[Steve williams]

Pels win big over the Clipps. Very tight in the top 3 as the Suns win to close on Utah who loses to Minnesota

 

[jadis]

10 more games left in the regular season and the Heat and the Celtics are fighting to get out of the play-in. C's lost to a Thunder team who is on a 14-game losing streak. I do not even know a single player in the Thunder roster.

 

[WLVCA]

Suns and Clippers face off tonight in Phoenix.

Kawhi, Pat Bev and Serge Ibaka still out for the Clippers.

Fight for 2nd in the Western Conference as the Clips are one game behind Phoenix at the moment.

Meanwhile back at the ranch the Lakers again start off with a 7 point lead and now in the 3rd and the Lakers just couldn't look worse. They have no Dee and they are soft to sub .500 clubs. Anyone can beat them . Even if LeBron returns I can't see Lakers going far in the playoffs

Wizards 87 Lakers 72 with 1:35 in 3rd
