The Regime Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 He's shooting 34% from three...I don't see how one banked in 3 makes up for the loss. And maybe they didn't play the way they normally play because the Cavs did a good job on defense, keeping Bynum and Odom quiet and Artest and Gasol contained I'm sorry but Moon will never put up 13 points on us again. 6-7 shooting, talk about a lucky night.

EastCoastNiner Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 A lot of the Los Angeles Lakers fans have a tough time taking a loss up their [expletive], which is what happened. Way to throw [expletive] on the court. You don't want to be like Philadelphia now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poe Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 I'd say if the Cavs and the Lakers played each other out of 5 games, the Cavs would win 1. This was that one time. Tough loss, but I'd still expect the Lakers to win a multiple game series if they ever meet in the Finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland's Finest Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 (edited) I'm sorry but Moon will never put up 13 points on us again. 6-7 shooting, talk about a lucky night. WOW lmao...actually starting to make me sick hearing this. Moon's "lucky night" is the excuse for this loss? What's next....the Lakers got bad calls (because they were complaining after almost every possession, so they must be right). Jamario has had about 10 games this year with 8 points or more....is it that beyond him to score 13?

Doc Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Lets be real tho, this is Moon. This will prolly be his best game of the season lol. Knowing him from his Raptor day's, he was the hottest i have seen him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland's Finest Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 13 points and that's the excuse for this Laker loss. 13 points. He didn't even have more than 15 yet it's substantial enough to blame because there's no way the Cavs couldn't have just beaten the Lakers. I saw another replay of Fisher cheap shot to Mo....he better be suspended. Makes me sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's Finest Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 I'm sure the national media will still downplay this. Mo lead in scoring which shows so much about how much he has improved. He is beginning to sho up even more against the elite teams. With wins in Orlando and LA, this team looks much more promising in these big time games than last year. Still though it seems like Kobe is the best in the media's eye which is something Cavs fans have grown to live with lately. Wait till we get Leon Powe back....we will be a force to be reckoned with.

Guest California Dreamin' Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 No excuses for LA. The refs were horrible, but the Cavs played better, had more energy, and made more hustle plays. The Cavs wanted the game more. Kobe got no help from anyone on the Lakers. The Celtics are still the best team in the East. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner Real Deal Posted December 26, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Garbage game. I'll forget about it by morning. Here's the breakdown: Kobe Bryant - shot poorly from the field, had turnovers that weren't his fault, did everything else right on the court and didn't get four very obvious calls as he attacked the rim most of the night Pau Gasol - not much on offense because he couldn't position himself in the post, didn't roll off of screens correctly, and his defense sucked Andrew Bynum - no offense, no defense, no nothing Ron Artest - needs to start posting up weaker players, defense was okay but I would've rather had Kobe defending LeBron (he would've done a better job) Derek Fisher - nothing on offense, absolutely nothing on defense (as always) Lamar Odom - nothing on offense, terrible on defense Shannon Brown - didn't get the playing time to matter, which is too bad because he's better than Fisher Jordan Farmar - needs to be traded Sasha Vujacic - garbage time scoring, needs to stop looking like a fool trying to defend LeBron James It's nothing to stress over, really. By the end of the third, I was actually just laughing. I'm really, really glad that Kobe stayed on the court until the very end, though. That was by choice, I believe (looked like he yelled over at Phil to keep him in) and was a statement of him not wanting to give up. Basically, Cleveland beat us with much more than just LeBron James. They attacked our bigs and forced them to beat us on the other end of the floor, and they didn't. Throwing everything and the kitchen sink at Kobe worked, and it was Gasol, Bynum and Odom who couldn't do anything with the ball when they had it in their hands, and that led to our demise.

Owner Real Deal Posted December 26, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 By the way, for those saying there were/weren't bad calls...there were, and the majority of them didn't favor LA. Problem is, that wouldn't have mattered. If we had gotten all of those calls, we would've still lost this game. With Kobe being the best player on the floor DESPITE shooting poorly, that's going to be a problem even if it's against the Nets or Wolves.

Owner Real Deal Posted December 26, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 So how did one poor night turn the Lakers from being the best team in the league to being worried about the Nets and Wolves? I never said I was worried about that, I said it becomes a problem if Kobe plays bad against those teams, but... 1) how many times does Kobe play bad against them, anyways?2) we won't see either of them in a playoff series If New Jersey and Minnesota (or any other bottom-feeder) decided to put a very good defender on Bryant, doubling him as well, and they found success in doing that (or if Kobe just shot bad, like he did tonight), we'd struggle to win those games. Truth is, I believe we lose most of our games because we are lazy, and we have a couple of S-T-U-P-I-D players that get way too much playing time. Phil Jackson doesn't give a damn about regular season games. He would rather play idiots like Vujacic and Farmar in hopes that their confidence will shoot through the roof, and they will be better players by April or May. We need every win we can get. If they stay healthy, we will see Boston in the Finals, and regular season wins add up to home court advantage in June. So, yes, in a way...we need to beat every team, good or bad...but as far as being worried about those teams, I only find myself biting my nails in the postseason. Orlando beat us both times in the regular season last year, but we rolled them 4-1 in the Finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner Real Deal Posted December 26, 2009 Owner Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Come on now, lets not push it. The Nets are pretty freaking bad haha.Yeah, but you guys led 48-46 at the half, if I remember right (last game against us). However, Kobe played a solid game, scored 29 and pulled down 10 boards, while Bynum was pretty much Casper and Fisher was destroyed by Devin Harris. Odom had a good game, Gasol did as well. Today, all of that went down, but Bryant shot poorly, and both Gasol and Odom played badly as well. Take today's Lakers and the Nets from that night you guys played us...and you get a Nets win, or at least a very close game. Then again, the likelihood of Bryant playing that bad would be slim...just doesn't happen much, and when it does, Gasol steps up for us (or Bynum). That's why we're arguably the best team in the league, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
