"We get behind early on in the third quarter on some stupid plays -- poor passing, poor transition defense -- and then Kobe has to screw up the game and start energizing the team by going one-on-one and that takes the rest of the guys out as a consequence," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said after the game.Jackson clarified what he meant when he said "screw up the game" after practice, taking some of the bite out of the sound bite."When a game starts getting out of hand -- and rightly so -- Kobe will crank it up, not screw it up," Jackson said. "I used that term 'screw it up' but not in terms of it being an error or a mistake, but 'crank it up.' He'll go to another notch to try to get us back in the ballgame. That's something we do in the fourth quarter, that's our fourth quarter action, that's how we win ballgames. To have to crank it up and do that in the third quarter, we didn't have much left in the gas tank after that."

He also plays with a lot of style -- see, e.g. his trademark rim hangs.

I watch this guy and I'm like "oh, I bet they must have a pretty good record", and then I look and they're worse than the Warriors.
― polyphonic, Friday, 14 January 2011 07:49 (thirteen years ago) link
won 8/11 tho
― ice cr?m, Friday, 14 January 2011 07:51 (thirteen years ago) link
the warriors are also pretty good
― dayo, Friday, 14 January 2011 07:52 (thirteen years ago) link
Clips have wins agains every division leader except Boston. But yeah their start kinda fucked up their record pretty seriously.

Shit man, beat Miami, lose to Golden State. I didn't watch, but I'd guess they were a bit tired from their Miami performance. Incidentally, are the Warriors the only team that plays for a fictional state?
― hey boys, suppers on me, our video just went bacterial (Hurting 2), Saturday, 15 January 2011 19:05 (thirteen years ago) link
their name is golden state, they play in oakland, and their uniforms say 'the city' on them in reference to san francisco, get it together dudes
― ice cr?m, Saturday, 15 January 2011 19:54 (thirteen years ago) link
They don't say The City anymore.

California is the Golden State. It isn't fictional; it's a nickname.

The new unis are referred to as "The City" uniforms, IIRC?
― nomar little (Leee), Saturday, 15 January 2011 23:41 (thirteen years ago) link
I really wish he would stop that mouth piece chewing thing. He's going to asphyxiate on it during a dunk.
― Jeff, Sunday, 16 January 2011 00:44 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah it's gross too. Every time he dunks it's like YEAH!!!!...eh..ah...awww...ew...do we need to see that?
― hey boys, suppers on me, our video just went bacterial (Hurting 2), Sunday, 16 January 2011 00:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah - new golden state unis must be best in league or close to it - so fresh-looking!
― Gravel Puzzleworth, Sunday, 16 January 2011 01:20 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah more teams should consider putting graphical logos on the front of their unis ala hockey
― ice cr?m, Sunday, 16 January 2011 06:27 (thirteen years ago) link
The old unis from the '60s/'70s are "The City" uniforms and the new ones are inspired by that style.

Hollinger:
"The other thing you'll notice from the chart, again, is the quality of the comparables. Of the other 12 best rookies in the past three decades, all but two are either in the Hall of Fame or well on their way. We'll try really hard to ignore the fact that the two exceptions both played for the Clippers."
(Elton Brand & Terry Cummings are the two exceptions)

Lamarcus Aldridge had BG's number last night. Blake kept getting shut down and was trying to force spectacular shit all night long.. He will eventually learn but was like 6/17 from the field..
