Why even say something like that.

Talk about hitting the panick button

I'm just warming up for all the negative Nancies that will flood this board this season.

Lol Pau gives the ball to Dwight to bring up court.

Nash will be ok, he's a warrior. Hockey player mentality.

This is the worst looking offense I've seen since Game 4 right now.

alright blake. dont do anything but shoot the open 3 and chase jimmer around.

We need a back up PG. Ugh, Blake is in.

I don't like this.

Good decision for Nash. Go ice that or whatever is needed to keep that ankle healthy. Or we'll be forced to start Blake.

Metta shots too much already lol

I hate this offense by the way.

I'm a bit perplexed why Nash doesn't get the ball to initiate the offense every time. It seems like a waste to watch the other Lakers bring up the ball and sometimes completely neglect him which has happened a few times this game.

It's good to see Nash going into the locker room to get his ankle examines. Let's hope he's fine.

MWP still playing with intensity...

Nash absolutely needs the ball and he needs to create for his teammates. I don't know why Brown is insisting on this crappy "offense" or whatever you want to call it.

Lucky they've got some defensive hustle because the offense looks like garbage this half.

Metta with 3 steals. Good D.

Hopefully we hear everything is fine with Nash. Glad to see he's heading back to the locker room to take care of the ankle, we need him healthy for when the season truly begins.

I hope Steve is OK, that's all I care about now.

I had this concern when we got him..... he's a ball dominant guard and has been one since he got to the NBA.... We aren't running the pick and roll that much and he's being relegated to moving without the ball and spotting up.... two things that aren't natural to him.

Our pace is also about the slowest system he's ever played in as well....

I think it will take a little time for him to adjust but he's too good not to figure it out...

Ron is playing hard...one ill advised chuck though.

Nash's ankle has me worried, but it doesn't look that bad.

Agreed.

There's nothing wrong with keeping this "offense" as an option for Nash, but I completely agree that Nash should have a chance to instead call a PnR each time he has the ball and he should have the ball to begin every offensive possession.

That's a 3

Great news that it's just a minor sprain of the ankle. Please let him rest Mike.

Thank, God...just a minor tweak of the ankle for Nash.

I have never seen Nash having so few assists. That's why I am a little frustrated here.
