I heard it on radio. The Lakers announcers said Sheed doesn't like Flip. They said Flip makes eye contact with Sheed but Sheed ignores him.
Flip tried to give a fist bump to Sheed and Sheed ignored him.
Com'mon Sheed snap out of it.
Told you we'd be up by 20 on these Fakers!
Held them to less than 80, that's very strong these days. But I think it was more Laker slop than Piston dominance.

Maxiell is not playing well. It's so correctable it's not funny. Hustle, energy, effort.

I remember last year people talking about CB looking like he was playing in slow motion. When the offense if clicking now it really does look like the whole team is playing at a different, slower speed than the opponent. Especially in the first quarter last night. That was pretty impressive.

Still, got to find a way to get two bench players into the game in the first and third, somewhere around the 8-9 minute mark.

YouTube - Craig Sager - Who is your daddy?

Not quite. Here's the difference: Maxiel played in the 2nd quarter. HVC only played in the 4th quarter when the outcome was already determined.

So, here's that nutball sager calling the guy MAY_CEE on three occasions and the guy is just talking on. Now, Ive known the Webber family since Chris was 9 so Im yelling at the Tv "THATS NOT MR. WEBBER!!" three or 4 times. Then the guy says something like " we've been watching him play since he was a kid" and now I'm tripping. "Why would Mayce talk like that?" And then Sager says "Thank you May-CEE" and the guy walks off and I'm like "Since when was his name pronounced MAY-CEE"?. And how did he get so old and so gray? Ten minutes later, here omes back that idiot Sager with THE REAL Mr. Webber. And I'm Like "sheeeeeeeeeeeesh"....

The weird thing is that if you watch the YouTube clip that Roscoe posted, doesn't the first guy (turns out he was Chris' AAU coach) actually kind of look like Chris? I thought the way he grinned looked a lot like him. When they found the real Mayce, I remembered from interviews I've seen before that that's what he really looks like, so I was all, "oh, yeah, guess they screwed that one up." Still, I totally thought the AAU coach could pass for being a relative!

After Sager found the real Mayce, we were joking on chat that they must have been randomly asking every single older-middle-age black man in the stadium, "are you Chris Webber's dad?"

Super execution last night.

Better not get overly happy about Kobes eight TO's. The next time we swipe at the ball that often will likely result in a parade to the foul line.

JMax needs to can the Lindsey style offensive moves. If it takes eight dribbles to get there, %%%etaboutit.

Is the FLEX dead? During a radio-side post game interview with assistant coach Kevin Wilson, he mentioned a brand new offensive concept of playing "INSIDE OUT" (his words). I don't know, it sounds like a fad. It willl never catch on.

5 & counting !!!

The flex was stupid anyways. All you have to do is read a Minneapolis-St. Paul phonebook and you know all the plays.

Maybe "inside out" is the technical term for "dang, the new guy sure serves up some nice passes."

Good point. The kids had quick hands last night and maybe got some liberties with the calls. Aggression still influences the whistle though and everyone played defense aggressively last night.

I prefer the "deceptively slow offense".
