Impossible.

4 quarters at the max in single digits (9) = 36 points.

I meant 20 lol Not a single quarter at 20 points scored.
Thanks for catching that.

Cavs showed a little youth late in their loss.

Allowing Telfair to dribble around in the half court was ridiculous and also funny.

Lol, Mitch Kupchak defended Brown's firing because the team was meant to contend THIS season, and they are not. The playoffs are six months away! They've got to hurry!
I'd bet my next paycheck that they've already got something worked out with Phil which lead to dumping Mike Brown so quickly.

The Phil part is justifiable. The firing because "we need to win THIS season" is stupid because Mike Brown isn't going to win anymore with the current squad next year, 2 years from now, 5 years from now...he's not becoming a better coach and the Lakers aren't necessarily a rising powerhouse.

Perhaps, and thus it's stupid they ever started out the season with him as head coach to begin with. Depending on how long it takes them to bring in Phil or whomever else is just going to further set them back.

Bickerstaff is now the 8th head coach(interim or full) of the Lakers since Kobe has arrived in LA and the 3rd time a coach has been fired during the season in that same time frame(Del Harris, Rudy T and Mike Brown).

Sources are saying that Phil has accepted the head coaching position in LA.

To me it's just 100% no doubt that Phil was contacted by someone bitter within the organization and Phil slept on it a bit and as soon as he decided Brown was canned....but with $11 million owed I can't feel sorry for him.

I like Jackson but now I REALLY don't want the Lakers to be the champs.

On a good college football evening I'm watching a bit of the Bobcats/Mavericks

In the first 9 min Kemba Walker was 10/4/3 and Mullens had 7 rebounds

Vince Carter playing well.

Jesus....Kemba Walker is out of control...never passes and forces horrible shots.

As a team they horrible passing. Offense is 1 on 1...little movement

Perimeter defense is atrocious...led by Walker

Gotta give to Kemba for staying at it. His energy level is silly.

He's at 22 pts 7 rb 6 steals....3 min left in the 3rd

Harden 3-10 in the first half against the worst team in the league. #Battling.

Ben Gordon 4/14 with 5 fouls in 20 min is backcourting with Kemba for the worst perimeter defense but shoot at will.

Another crappy shot by Gordon and another shitty defensive effort.

He had 34 last night but is killing them tonight.
