I have never seen such a fickle group of sports fanatics in my life. I felt like a nurse working the crazy ward of a care facility.

It has been a blast to come by on a Tuesday to see the entire team traded for 2nd round picks, and come back on Friday to "league fkt."

I hope to see you win it all this year. Positive bipolar people are better bipolar people.

There is quite literally zero chance he has never seen a fickle fan base like the Pels AND is a Saints fan.

I don’t think the majority of people on here are fickle.

Some of us have been around for the best part of 2 decades + and have NEVER ever tasted success.

It’s fricking infuriating. Hanging around despite being utterly average is about as unfickle (loyal) as you can be.

If I want to trade half the team after yet another sh1tty avoidable loss, after collecting them all season…I will.

Suck my hairy British balls.

I mean, we have had the same core for how long now?

Starting to think this is just who they are. You have to do something

Obviously we're at the point where they need to show something consistently in the playoffs. Nobody is going to argue that. They've also greatly improved in the regular season for the last two years.

Mascona nailed it on his show just now. He said this is why the majority of the state refuses to get into the Pels, because of their history of always choking when it matters most. And that’s what they did Sunday. They let a 40 year old lebron come in and drag his nuts all over them with EVERYTHING on the line

He also said he hopes they lose tomorrow and try to get the 8 seed because they have absolutely no shot against Denver

I'm hearing this a lot, which suggests we have much of a shot against OKC, which is silly.


Minuscule odds vs slightly lesser minuscule odds...it's just not going to matter either way.

It's the selective excuses and bad takes for me. Some posters here are talking "rhythm disruption" after giving up a 40-point second quarter to the Lakers .... can't make some of these takes up

You don’t believe defined roles, minutes or inserting players in the rotation has anything to do with how you perform on offense or defense in basketball? Sports is all about continuity, familiarity and repetition.

For sure, but it pales in comparison to not getting back on defense, losing your man consistently on back door cuts, being too slow to get in help position, and turning the ball over which the Pels did in spades last night.

Again you don’t think defined roles, different minutes for players or inserting new players in the rotation has nothing to do with these issues on defense as well??? You have different lineups playing defense, communication is different, not knowing when a player needs help, turning the ball over because a new player in the rotation is not in position- again all this is interconnected on offense AND defense.

BI and Nance are certainly not “new players”. This is the NBA, guys are missing games for various reasons constantly, a game here, three games here. By your logic, if you miss a game I guess you have to go to the bench. Nance missed two games, you actually think he or his teammates forgot how to play with each other? Of all the excuses for last night, this is probably the worst I’ve heard. We were not ready to play as a team last night, were punched in the mouth and went into the fetal position. We were totally outcoached as the Lakers were thoroughly prepared to abuse us in our pick and roll coverage and we couldn’t or didn’t adjust. Tuesday is a new night and it will say a lot about this team and coaching staff how we look.

This is such a tired excuse. The fact that this is the excuse Willie Green and some of the fans use as the reason we lost is silly. You actually think in game 82- the most important game of the season- players weren’t ready to play??! That rotations, players who havent played for a month and bad coaching has nothing to do with this??

And say you and Willie Green are right. Whats that say about your players, the coaching staff and this organization where every loss they just didn’t have the fight. Give me a break.

BI missed a month. Not one game- he likely has conditioning issues and was on a minutes restriction. Maybe use your logic and understand how that affects your team in one of the biggest games of the season.

We have been outcoached in every loss and in even in some wins this season. By the way he wasn’t outcoached by Ham- who probably is the only coach worse than Willie. He was outcoached by Lebron who tore apart all of Willies defensive schemes.

This Lakers team has beat us several times this season and same excuse comes up from the same fans who eat up Willie’s presser- “we didn’t play hard enough.” Well I hope they play hard tomorrow.

When we lose on Tuesday- I’m sure you’ll be repeating Willie’s excuse on this board again.
