Sun. 12/16 - Lakers @ 76ers - Predictions & Comments

good d so far

Offense is horrible, so much 1 on 1 and too many TOVs

Everybody except MWP is playing like crap so far.

I always make the new gameday thread immediately after the current game ends, simply so I don't forget.

Lol oh ok then

Dwight has FOUR turnovers in just 6 minutes of play

Turnovers a problem again. Thaddeus Young with back-to-back layups in traffic. Offense and Defense looks more engaged though overall, so as long as LA doesn't have one of their patented complete O/D breakdowns for a quarter and dig themselves into a 15 point deficit, this game should be winnable.

Really Howard?? c'mon..

so frustrating with the TOs of this team....

goddamn, they should be embarassed...how such a veteran team makes so many mistakes is crazy.

DWight already has 4 turnovers.

Dwight is terrible, just terrible

Dwight can't score on Kwame.

He's going for the record

Kwame is destroying Dwight lol

Howard is so overrated.. His post moves are crap. And now it seems like he can't block even one layup, T.Young made 2 in his face.

clearly off of turner in the backcourt

Yes Dwight lets keep putting you on the block so you can turn it over and force up a stupid shot

thats what i said in the bynum thread and i got laughed at

Dwight looking like a rookie against Kwame. 76ers sinking all their mid-range jumpers.

It's partly Dwight's lack of a refined postgame. It's also partly because Kwame is one of the best post defenders in the league.

and some people claim that kobe take too many shots...when dwight plays are like crap what else he can do, only shot the ball

I would still keep defending the sixers the way we are. Contested mid range jumpers.

I'm much more interested to see if anyone can play defense here...

Turner is getting open looks, Young is eating Artest off the dribble, Kobe is leaving Richardson wide open...as usual, an awful collective game by the Lakers.

To be fair, Kwame is an elite post defender.

Bynum's footwork and arsenal of moves is clearly superior to Dwight's, but Dwight is *supposed* to be quicker and stronger and generally better at getting the ball in the low post and just putting it in... but he's not doing any of that. He sucks against a double team and seems to wilt against anyone bigger than he is. Still, we shouldn't need him to be a dominant paint scorer so long as he can be reliable with it and be a dominant paint [i]defender[\i]... but he's not looking great in that department either.

Awesome fastbreak
