Yeah? and what do Murphy and McRoberts exactly do each game? The only logical explanation for these two scrubs getting playing time is because they've been on the team longer and it's close to playoff time. Otherwise, they blew their chances LONG ago.

In game tanking by Mike Brown...

he wants the teams PPG differniantial to be small...
Luring teams into a trap...
Thinking the lakers are not that good...



Murphy and McRoberts have REAL value to some NBA teams.... Like the Bobcats or Warriors... Or any other team that wants to lose games...


Then, playoffs come around, and Steve Blake, Murphy and McRoberts are out of the rotation...
And Lakers win 16 games in a row!!!

One can only hope.

So,if you don't want Blake, Murphy, and McRoberts to play in the playoffs then who do you want Mike Brown to play then?

^ Hill and Gouldeylocks.

Okay! Mike Brown should play Hill and Goudelock then.

Well, who would you play?

If you see Blake/Murphy/McRoberts having crap games (which the probability of is more than high), do you want to see them come out on the floor again after their initial playing time? or do you want to see a hustle guy and a guy who can score come out?

[TKainZero]

Steve Blake should still play at Backup PG


He cannot be a SG though...
Whenever he is on the floor, he is abysmal...


Murphy is usefull when his shot is dropping ( it has not been for months)


The point is, the lakers still have wildcards on their roster that they do not know what they can give the team...


Can Morris be a PG?
Can Goudelock make big buckets in crunch time?
Is Jordan Hill a quality player like his stats say? Or a nobody like Coach Brown thinks he is..


At least we have seen Ebanks play some mins of late...
Lakers know what to expect from their 3rd string SF...



We know what we are going to get from Steve Blake, Murphy, and Mcroberts...

We need to KNOW what our UNKNOWN variables are

Jordan Hill is probably closer to the nobody that his last two teams thought he was. It's not like Mike Brown was the first to not trust this guy. He's been a huge disappointment in his career and we saw today, admittedly a small sample size, that he's just not very good.

[Majesty]

I find it sort of amazing how under the microscope some of the players are.

For instance, if Blake misses a pass he's a scrub that shouldn't be playing or deserves to lose his spot.
Or when Pau Gasol loses the ball out of bounds he's called a scrub.
But Hill can miss pass after pass after pass and its "he needs minutes" or "the pass was too hard"

People should just admit they want him to play and will be blind to all the flaws shown in garbage time till he gets time. So when he finally gets time they can knock him too, or knock the front office for giving up a draft pick to get him. That's the way it works now right?

We wanted Morris to play, he did good in garbage time so we wanted to see him get minutes, he finally does, he shows he isn't really ready, he's called a waste of space, now that he's firmly on the bench he should be getting minutes? Called out Goudelock for bricking all these shots in the minutes he was getting and maybe even saying he won't do good on this Lakers team, he has some good games and he's our bench savior, he starts bricking shots and turning over the ball and we're back to talking about him again, he gets injured and more or less loses his spot and now when we're down in a game we want to put him back in? The flaws are all apparent when the guys you people beg should get more minutes play but when they are put back where they belong(at that time) you want them back out there.

it will be the same for Hill

People will be begging for him to get minutes, he'll get minutes, whenever he turns over the ball or misses or lets a pass slip out of his hands he'll be worse than Kwame Brown, and whenever he hits a midrange jumper he'll be better than Mcroberts and Murphy and eventually people will say to put him back on the bench cause he isn't prepared to play with this team yet or for whatever reason. And then when he's firmly on the bench if we're ever losing a game or in a close one they'll be saying "and Hill isn't playing..why!?"

its funny actually

^ so be it if Hill doesn't end up producing, the point is people want him to get some form of court time to see what he actually is capable of off the bench.

People are tired of seeing the continual inconsistency and lack of production from the guys who are in the current rotation, being Blake/Murphy/McRoberts. Perhaps these guys simply just aren't a good fit for our squad.

[Cj2008nw]

I dont understand how people think Steve Blake is good lol..... And Jordan hill doesn't look very skilled and looked lost in garbage minutes lol so he might be worst than Murphy and Roberts only thing we know he can do better is rebound

[Hollywood]

^ thays what im saying

[noknife]

He can't play, that is why he doesn't. You act like an NBA coach pays no attention to a guy he sees practice several times a week.

[BleedPurple&Gold]

wouldn't you be lost too if you was traded to the Lakers, and don't play in any games, and barely have practice because of the lock out.

FREE JORDAN HILL WOOOOO!!!

LOOKS LIKE MIKE BROWN READ JORDAN HILL'S TWEETS!



MCROBERTS AND MURPHY ARE [expletive] COMPARED TO THIS GUY, TOLD Y'ALL!!! WOOO!!!

Jordan Hill is probably closer to the nobody that his last two teams thought he was. he's just not very good.
