This was a weird game. Never seemed to get a good feel for it.
The best thing is that "we won" but we're going to have to play a whole lot better for a full 48 minutes to get where we want to be.

We're much better when we have Porgie with the starters ... he should be back tomorrow.

Think about it - Al just took on Zion & Valanciunas with some help from Queta & Briss and we came back to win when they were on top most of the game scoring almost at will. Yeoman's work by our frontcourt!

Of course we are. But this game should not have gone the way it did. We were horrible defensively for most of the first 3 1/2 quarters. If Zion wasn't such a fat, out-of-shape bloat, the Pels might have pulled this out. Porzingis or not, we have to play with more urgency earlier and not expend so much just to get back in the game, TWICE. We have to play the whole game like we did in the 4th. The Pels had been beaten by a combined 48 points in their past 2 games. This isn't about not having Porzingis. |

The weak Qtr was the 1st giving up 36pts ... after that 24/27/25 ... that's pretty good defense considering both Porgie & Kornet were missing. Jrue had 20pts and covered Zion as well. They were hot early but steady D finally got to them in the later half of Q3 and in Q4.
I agree w/ Hedley ... a solid win coming back from the Clipper disaster.

Rajon Rondo arrested on gun, drug charges in Indiana by Barkley TruaxFormer Kentucky star and NBA champion Rajon Rondo has been arrested on gun and drug charges in Indiana, per report. “Rondo was stopped for a traffic violation in Jackson County, Indiana, Sunday afternoon and a trooper smelled marijuana, leading to a search that found a gun and drug paraphernalia, ISP spokesman Sgt. Stephen Wheeles said Monday night,” a report from WDRB in Louisville reads. The former NBA star was cited for unlawful possession of a firearm as well as possession of drug paraphernalia and marijuana, per court records obtained by WDRB. He was taken to Jackson County jail and immediately posted bond. All of the charges are misdemeanors and his arraignment has yet to be revealed. Because of a prior charge stemming from 2022 where Rondo allegedly brandished a gun against a Louisville woman in his home. The incident arose from an in-home situation that allegedly ended with Rondo leaving the scene and coming back with the firearm. Due to the incident, a no-contact order was taken out against him in court which issued him to no longer have possession of a firearm. Of course, Rondo was found with a firearm during Monday’s traffic stop. It remains to be seen how that will affect the outcome of his court appearance.

The fix is in..................AGAIN:
Billy Mac: “The Lakers have shot 233 more free throws coming into this game than their opponents this year. Far and away ahead of the 2nd place team, the New York Knicks… Oddly, the Lakers are dead last in drives to the basket.” – via reddit

Not sure I believe this one, either:
"After the first season, I saw that it was really good for Mac and I saw that his coach was leaving, and I advised Mac and his agent to go and ask for a trade," Dickinson explained during his conversation with Curran. "I just said, 'Hey, I just think it would be better for you and the Patriots if they trade you.'"

Red Sox choose PGA investment ($3B) over roster revitalization.
Sox have Justin Turner (DH) working out all winter at Fenway waiting for a new contract that never comes - he signs with the Blue Jays today for 1 yr @ $13MM!
Those predicting more payroll cuts in favor of outside investment/additions to the Holding Company over the Sox are being proven correct.
