I'd say that Taj is playing with intensity. Otherwise, I agree with you.

They called a fucking lane violation

We're lucky to be within 10. Has the broadcast said what's going on with Towns?

Foul trouble again

If there's a time I don't mind Thibs getting a technical it's now. This officiating is so one sided it's beyond a joke. I can't watch it anymore.

Kahns - I agree with you. It has happened way too often this season. I suspect it has something to do with an attitude officials have towards Thibs. I can't come up with any other explanation, although Jim Pete seems to think it's the fact that other teams play more aggressively, resulting in more favorable calls. If I'm right, it's ridiculous. We should expect more from NBA officials.

we can complain about wiggs, kat, teague, ad even thibs. But the bench is by far the biggest reason we struggle to win and close games.

Jamal cant do anything. Dieng is a C that cant rebound nor defend. Both guys are killing us on both sides of the ball.

Thanks. I thought Thibs pulled him out with 2 just saw that he has 3.

We have become the clippers, but less talented.

A team that has no fun. Looks like they hate playing together. A coach that never shuts up. A star that complains on everything (even though KAT does get killed inside). And other role players like gorgui, Crawford and Taj continue to complain

Lakers always get looked after by the officials at home. Always have always will, no matter how bad they are.

But it's not just this game. As you said teams play physical against us and get away with it. But when we play physical we get called for fouls.

In a league where the officials are held to no accountability, nothing will change.
