    Tmac wants to make a comeback, and he wants it to be with the Lakers.

    Ugh, I don't even know what to say. Doesn't seem like there'd be much of a point to it since the Lakers need to tank this year anyways. Maybe it'd get the fans excited a bit? I dunno. Seems like it'd benefit Tmac more than anyone else.

    TMac is my second favorite player of all time. I say bring him in. It's not like the team is developing any perimeter players anyway. Guys like Wayne Ellington, Ronnie Price, and Wes Johnson probably won't be there next year. Might as well bring in TMac and possibly sell some jerseys.

    And why the h--- is Ronnie Price starting ahead of Jeremy Lin? I know Jeremy Lin needs to be more aggressive and he isn't entirely consistent, but Ronnie Price is shooting 30% from the field. Clealy a tank move.

    Celtics were looking good for a minute. Beat the Lakers pretty easily, beat the Wizards sunday and then almost came back from down 25 against the Wiz on Monday but eventually lost in double OT. Then here we are losing to Charlotte tonight.

    Aren't you going for the tank this year anyways? But yeah that Lakers game was embarrassing, actually thought the Lakers would win going into the game, and it wasn't even close.

    Im on the fence. They looked really good in those two Wizards games and i thought maybe they could squeeze into the playoffs but then the Charlotte game happens and they no show. Celtics arent bad enough to tank this year i dont think and i honestly dont know all that much about next years draft outside of the top guys, but the Celtics dont have a shot at any of them.

    Holy s---, Kobe owning it in practice today. Love that he's this passionate and isn't afraid to rip into guys, they need it now.

    EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Kobe Bryant returned to practice for the first time this month and called his teammates "soft" during a heated 5-on-5 scrimmage between the starters and reserves Thursday.

    When practice was opened to the media, Bryant and Nick Young were already trading barbs during the scrimmage with Young telling Bryant, "Nobody in the world can guard me one-on-one," and Bryant telling Young, "You're going exactly where I want you to go."

    Later Bryant said, "You mother-----s are soft like Charmin in this mother-----. God d---, is this the type of s--- that's going on in these practices? Now I see why we've lost 20 f-----ing games. We're soft like Charmin. We're soft like s---."

    Lakers coach Byron Scott has held Bryant out of most practices and shootarounds this season. Thursday was the veteran star's first full practice with the team in over two weeks

    Bryant was also getting on Jeremy Lin during the scrimmage, daring him to s---t whenever he had the ball, yelling, "This mother----- don't got s---. He ain't got s--- right now. s---t! s---t!" After Lin missed a pull-up jumper, Bryant said, "I talked his a--- right into that bulls---. I talked his a--- right into that bulls---."

    By the end of the scrimmage, which the starters won, Bryant said, "Practice gets real uncomfortable when I'm in this mother----."

    After the team gathered together at center court to close practice, Bryant passed Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak and said, "I'm supposed to practice and get better, Mitch. I'm supposed to practice and get better. These motherf-----s ain't doing s--- for me."

    Thought Mamba responded by saying, "Good, cause I'm not from this world."

    Kobe has the chance to pass MJ in points tonight, needs 31 to pass. It's against the Spurs on the road though so gonna be tough, unless he's going for it which is certainly possible, I bet he only gets 20-23 or so. Either way he'll get it on the road since the next game's at Minnesota, kinda wish it was at home but oh well.

    I'm also curious to see how the rest of the Lakers respond after Kobe ripped into them yesterday, hopefully it fired them up.

    Also, Jalen Rose just showed his all time top 10, here's what it was.


    1. Jordan
    2. Russel
    3. Kareem
    4. Magic
    5. Bird
    6. Duncan
    7. Wilt
    8. Kobe
    9. Shaq,
    10. Hakeem/Oscar Robertson.


    Good list imo, nothing too crazy there. I'd change a few things but that's a fair list.

    Back on the Celtics tank wagon after back to back losses to the Hornets and Knicks.

    Lakers started down 10-0 vs. the Spurs last night and it looked like it'd be over quick. But the Lakers actually controlled most of the game and shockingly looked like the better team last night. They definitely wanted the win more than the Spurs. Spurs had a rally near the end to send it to OT, but Lakers still pulled it out.

    Kobe was great at setting other guys up late in the game, had about 4 plays in a row where he got the assist on a clutch basket. Then Nick Young hit an impossible shot late to get the win.

    I'm still mostly on the tank side for this season but d--- it felt good to win that one last night against the defending champs. It's gonna be hard for the Lakers to keep their draft pick cuz they keep playing better it seems.

    Congrats Kobe, nicely done. Lakers got a good W too and Kobe had some clutch shots.

    Remember back at SL when the Mavs swept the Lakers and I said "Don't worry Kon. They're about to grab CP3 and Dwight this off season and it'll be three more trips to the finals!"

    Thanks a lot, David Stern. I'm watching the Lakers/Pacers right now and it's just depressing. Ugh.
