February 1 2024 Beat LA
- Thread starter Ale Xander
- Start date
Rui Hachimura - 3/6 from 3
Austin Reaves - 7/10 from 3 (come the fuck on)
D'Angelo Russell - 4/8 from 3
And our team shooting like Stevie Wonder. What a frustrating ass game. Maybe the Lakers will be fooled into thinking they're good and won't make any trades.

That sequence is a microcosm of this mess.
Tatum tries to rip through for a foul/layup, ball flies out of his hands, Reaves gets it, Tatum fouls him.
Garbage.
Glad I didn’t pick up tickets for this one…

In the real world, officials have been pretty unbalanced—-as this review shows.
but that is not to excuse Celtics playing a lot more poorly than lakers
This. Like it's cool, it's Feb 1st, how about not letting a random game ruin your night?
Hauser, Pritch, Horford, Queta all positive in the game. This loss is all on Tatum and Brown. They just didn't have it. 12-34.
Every drive was like 1 on 3 with minimal ball movement they barely gave the refs a chance to even consider a whistle.
no one said or suggested that—get a grip. The whole game shows the imbalance. That call just illustrates it.
Again…Celtics didn’t play well enough. But the foul disparity is a classic issue vs lakers too
The NBA regular season kind of sucks at this point of the year. All the great teams just kind of randomly no-show. It’s not just the Celtics. Every night no one gets hurt is a good night at this point.
100% this. The Celtics got no whistles because they didn’t earn any whistles.
Yes. Plus, again its kinda hard to beat any NBA team shooting 53% from deep on 36 shots
It's going to sting the boys. National game getting embarrassed by the JV team.
Hopefully something positive comes out of it. More intensity on defense would be a start.
I kind of agree but they have not played great this home stand.
Killed by the LAC
Played like shit against NO the first 3 quarters
Beat the pacers. Good win but their best player sat in 4th in a tight game
This shitshow tonight
It seems both Jays went into this knowing both Laker stars were out and figured they could phone it in
I think weve gone over the foul call thing wrt the lakers in the port cellar and the tldr is they dont get a particularly better whistle than anyone else, they just shoot way fewer threes.
Really no way to fix it that will be palatable to owners, unfortunately.
And it’ll only get worse when Silver puts teams in Europe to fulfill Papa Stern’s dream.
Hauser shot well...so we have that going for us
Maybe the February schedule isn't so easy?
C's will be fine
BUT if this turns the Lakers season around I'll be PO'd

They had to run with the friggen Pacers for 48 minutes on a B2B Tuesday. It showed tonight.
19-36. Some of that was bad D, but some of that was nonsense. The Reaves clock beater was nonsense.
Another loss where I wish we still had Ime. He would be lighting a fire under these guys. I hate CJM so much.
its just me, but I wouldn't be able to respect or take seriously any of the stuff a guy like that said. maybe the players still feel motivated by him but Id find it perplexing.
Is there really evidence for that?
Same coach that watched them toss away 6 games to the Bucks and Heat and piss away a 2-1 Finals lead because they couldn’t string two passes together, and were burnt out from tossing away 6 games to the Bucks and Heat.
Ime had them playing balls to the wall every night from February to April. Which was great until they completely petered out in June. I am happy to see them prioritize health over trying to win every game. Sometimes that means phoning a few winter games in.
Not disagreeing too much but wish they would have phoned in this Sunday instead of tonight
This is very Charles and for TV purposes the correct thing to say. Knows the audience.
They still might! I’m willing to bet they look refreshed Sunday after two days of rest. They needed this schedule to ease up a bit.
I hope not. We heard that inane shit last year and how did that work out?
"Beat LA" probably isn't going to work either.
I'm annoyed
What exactly are people worried about re: saving the Lakers season?
Would you rather LBJ force a trade to Miami or some shit?
