He's the worst offensive player in the NBA this season. That is not hyperbole.

He's shooting 26.6% from the field and averaging 4ppg in 27 minutes. That's good for a 5.3 PER.

Disagree. Yes, Pat Bev is useless on offense, but he's still an elite defender and a big part of the reason that the Lakers have had one of the league's top defenses.

The Lakers will give up more points without him, and their shallow bench will be thinner.

Basically, it means that you replace a bunch of Pat Bev minutes with Dennis Schroder minutes, and Schroder is a poor defender.

The Lakers list LeBron James as questionable for tomorrow’s game in San Antonio. Anthony Davis and Juan Toscano-Anderson are probable.


The rumor has been that LeBron is going to return to the starting lineup tomorrow, after missing five games with his adductor strain.

LeBron hasn’t been himself all year because of that injury. He isn’t getting the correct lift in his jumpshot. Hopefully he comes back too early and it makes him miss significant time.

Sadly, the Lakers play the Spurs in back-2-back games Friday & Saturday. The Spurs looked like a last-place Summer League team Wednesday night.

I'm hoping for the return of "Westbrick", a devastating hangnail for brittle Toni and a load-managed two-nights for Lebron, in order for a miracle to happen.

We're gonna do the PJ Tucker thing over again, aren't we?


Patrick Beverley this season is an awful basketball player. I'm completely baffled that this is considered a hot take that you and others disagree with. There needs to be another word for his play because it's not fair to "awful" players to call him awful. He's been that bad.

Part of me wonders if you guys realize he's not the dude knocking down shots like he's done at a solid clip the last few seasons. He's not that, he's the exact opposite of that.

His offense has been awful. His defense seems decent.

frick Toní’s ole bitch arse. Don’t have regrets now, fricker. You sabotaged a team that swept the blazers and gave the Dubs all they could handle. You even told your teammates in July what you were going to do. Now you want a tribute video?

That’s all folks.

I think that the Spurs have a good chance for revenge tonight.

Watching Wenyen Gabriel try to deal with Jakob Poeltl in the post is funny.

The Spurs have made some boneheaded plays, but they are still up in the 2nd.
