    Anyone watch the Rockets/Cavs game? It's pretty crazy lol, Lebron just missed 2 clutch FTs with 1.5 seconds left and is now 3-11 at the line today, wtf? He also missed the potential game winner at the end of the 4th, Cavs probably gonna lose now.

    Still don't get why the Lakers didn't go after him in the offseason, they're so f---in stupid. He apparently wanted to go to LA too but the Lakers wanted to wait to hear back from Melo and Lebron first (lol) so Thomas chose the Suns.

    But yeah he's been killing it for you guys.

    *edit* Holy s---, they're up almost 30 on the Warriors in the 1st half?? God d---..

    35 shots for LeBron. Not since 2006 has he shot that many.

    Nuggets apparently ended a huddle with '1...2....3....6 weeks!' as in 6 weeks left in the season lol. f---, I'm even a little worried about the Nuggets passing the Lakers, they're only about 4 games ahead and it seems every team in that area is tanking better than the Lakers right now, smh.

    No way Bron should win MVP this year unless something huge changes, Harden and Curry are definitely ahead of him. Bron's missed a decent amount of games too.

    LeBron aint gonna win MVP when you got Curry and Harden playing how they are throughout the season, with addition to their win-lose record for the Rockets and Warriors.

    Yeah I doubt he will but you never know with how much ESPN and the media are always all over his nuts. If everything else was equal, I bet they'd vote Bron, it's what they're used to doing lol.

    I agree totally.

    This season it will definitely go to someone else. Westbrook has been playing out of his mind too, he just hasn't done it as much as Curry or Harden over the course of the entire season.

    I think Curry takes it

    LeBron isn't even in MVP contention, Steph vs Harden is close I'd probably vote for Harden given the injuries the Rockets have dealt with and how much he's stepped up defensively but I could easily see it going to Steph.

    Brian shaw finally got canned, hope my pacers can get him back as an asst. He was good at that. Obviously not good with handling a young teams egos though.

    Oh and as far as mvp it is easily curry, harden plays no defense curry is an all around player. I see the argument with supporting cast tho so i can see why its a tough choice but i think curry should take it if he keeps this up.

    LeBron is 4th I believe right now. You never know, there is still a good amount of the season left to be played. If the Cavs continue to keep getting better, and their record improves as it has been, you cannot count him out in the long run. I think Curry will end up taking it, he's all anybody is talking about this season, rightfully so. Westbrook is unconscious right now. I believe he's 3rd in the race, but given Harden and Curry's records, they're the front runners.

    Harden: 27, 6 & 7
    LeBron: 26, 6 & 7
    Curry: 24, 5 & 8
    Westbrook: 27, 7 & 8
    If season stats is what it has to come down to by the end of the season for them to decide, (given they continue at this level of play) it's up for grabs.

    Lakers tanking on national tv again vs the Heat tonight jic anyone wanted to know. The NBA must be locked into these Lakers game once they schedule them, maybe they thought it would be Kobe's last year or something. Wish they had the ability to change them like the NFL does with their Flex schedule, would much rather watch the Rockets/Grizz game.

    Lakers really haven't been on national tv that much, I know there's tonight and one other game recently but besides that it's hardly been at all.

    But yeah I hate this Lakers team right now more than I've hated any Lakers team ever, what they're doing just makes no sense for the future. Byron Scott's an idiot, really hate Lin and Boozer especially.

    Jordan Clarkson's the only thing from this season to be optimistic about right now for Laker fans.

    17 times on ABC/TNT/ESPN total this season(that includes tonight and three more games this year)

    My sources have confirmed that the March 1st Lakers/OKC game was pulled from ABC and replaced with the Cavs/Rockets game though, so at least they did something but still on far too much.

    Full season tv schedule is on hand if you need it.

    Dunno how you arent aware of how often they are on considering you're not from LA.

    Well I stand by my original comments cuz 17 isn't much at all for the Lakers, usually it's in the 30's. Can't imagine a team as a popular as the Lakers ever having less than 12 national TV games, but yeah most of those 17 were a while ago when Kobe was playing, ever since then it's been very rare.

    Also it amazes me more people don't know about NBA league pass lol, I get it every year and have been doing so for about 10 years so whether it's on national TV or not doesn't really matter to me. I'm not saying you weren't aware of league pass but just saying there's people out there that claim to be die hard fans complaining about not being able to watch games, it's like uhh yeah...actually there's a very easy way to watch games even if you don't live in that market.

    17 is a lot of games for a team that sucks as bad as the Lakers. The Celtics are a popular team as well and arent on tv at all, they are the 4th most valuable team in basketball. And thats fine, nobody wants to watch a poor Celtics team in the same way that i dont want to watch the garbage Lakers play to lose again.

    Pretty sure im the guy who mentioned the NBA League Pass free trial every year for the past 3 season, Im not up to date on whether you have League Pass or not tho bruh lol. Maybe you didnt want to drop 2 bills a year to watch the s-----y Lakers, i dunno.
