the lakers have just pooped their big-boy pants: 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (part 2)

xp

rondo took and missed the shot at the end of regulation too! wtf!

Love how evan turner just turns around and stands there in the final play

would love to see bargnani and calderon on the lakers, thatd be the ultimate diantoni assignment, if they win it all w those dudes hes earned his money

man I despise all those haberstroh trades haha

If Colangelo trades for Pau he's worse than Kahn

raptors have no need for a guy like pau, denver on the other hand

i think the nuggs need to get rid of miller but i'm not sure pau is great for their system

If I had to bet it's gonna be the TWolves, Glen Taylor wants to win now because he's selling the team in 3-4 years

man I despise all those haberstroh trades haha

me too

pau for al jefferson, alec burks and earl watson

that one doesn't really work, alec burks can't shoot

i think milwaukee is one of the more interesting ones, but lol at pau in milwaukee

pau for monta/mike dunleavy/doron lamb

idk if the bucks would do that but that would be a great trade for that lakers imo, dunleavy has been incredible this year

maybe sub out mbah a moute for dunleavy?

pau & steve blake for rodney stuckey, corey magette and jason maxiell

pau & calderon to dallas, mayo & bargnani to lakers, kaman, marion & collison to toronto

pau & meeks to orlando, big baby, hedo & redick to LA

what say ye

omg you guys

pau & blake to philly for andrew bynum, jason richardson & dorrell wright

brandon roy is completely untradeable tho right?

Dec. 15th he's tradeable afaik

i love the idea of the lakers taking bynum of philly's hands and benching him for the season and giving them pau in order to get back two shooters

yeah no trade restriction beyond that xp

Dec. 15th he's tradeable afaik

oh i just mean the combination of medicals & horrid play makes him in reality untradeable

pau/blake for bynum, lavoy allen, jason richarson... how does LA say no

I think Toronto would want roy because his second year is unguaranteed

actually now that I think of it they probably wouldn't even want Pek since they'll be tanking idk

yeah i liked the idea of toronto taking back some of those random dallas players on one year deals but i couldn't figure it out on the trade machine cuz of the dec 15 restriction

My first NBA action of the season and this thunder/Lakers game well on the way to being the blowout I expected, but boy is Russell westbrook fun to watch.

Love that all three of Haberstroh's trades are basically "trade Pau for another Euro." Pau should just say fuck yall / buy me out like Odom, then go live the easy life reading audiobooks somewhere.

Stephen Jackson @DaTrillStak5

and courtney lee with that uncontested airball smdh

mkg just took duncan to the rack with a nice reverse

ohhh man that was primo wade

Pierce is deceptively slow. It's the only answer for why his old man game is so effective; players react quickly and he goes sneaky slow, so they foul him on their second reaction.

he had an old man game when he was 23

crazy thing about pierce is that apparently he wins the full court sprints among his teammates

Sneaky slow.

I find it bizarre that in all these years nobody has quite solved how to defend him.

z-bo just shot a technical free throw with the rest of the starters on the court
