He had what 9, 10 assists? He played well. Nobody's stopping Lillard. I don't even think LeBron can. |
12 assists for Price according to the Yahoo box score. 2 for 7 shooting and 8 pts.
3 assists for Lin, 3 for 9 shooting and 9 pts.
Didn't see the game but doubt either one of them was able to stop Lillard. |
No one can stop Lillard in this league... it needs team defense...
NO BIGs no defense... |

Our head of the snake got his own chopped off tonight. Only shots Lillard missed against him seemed to be layups he biffed or Ed Davis/Tarik Black challenged heavily. Price actually did okay, but it was funny Scott acting like he would make any difference against Lillard when he's on a roll. |

i still think he is overrated, waiting for his bad stretch after All Start Weekend.. |
There were some nights in the playoffs last here in which the Rockets stopped Liillard and the Spurs shut them down. It takes a good PG and team D. |

Yea I'm not gonna lie thought lin played ok, unbelievable that he only had 16 minutes. But Ronnies really gotta work on his D, lillard was torching this guy from straight isolation no screens called... The bigs (hill and boozer) were hitting J's and that contributed about 10 or so assists to Price but he did have one nice pass inside to wes Johnson. I thought he ran the offense fairly well overall not gonna get hung up on the poor shot selection late and forced turnovers.
Honesty I'm just surprised BS went with him to finish with no Kobe in the game. I mean where is our offense going to come from?? But I guess it was a good learning experience for BS seeing how the addition of "the head of the snake" helped secure the win lol. Also I don't like putting Price on their better players because I think defense is probably his greatest weakness ironically :/ |
Price had already done his best...that's all he can offer...He is not 22... he is 32. He just needs to stick with that.

In playoffs last year, Lillard had tremendous success against Patrick Beverley and Rockets. Once he beat Beverley, he would attack right at rim at full speed, and could either shoot himself, or pass and create alot of havoc against Rockets defense.
When he faced Spurs in second round, though, even though he could blow by Tony Parker at will, Lillard always had to pull up and almost looked confused at what he was seeing.
I remember Spurs always had two bigs about mid way up each side of the paint, and I don't know how they were covering shooters behind three point line, but the drives to basket Lillard got against Rockets weren't there against Spurs.
Tarik Black and Ed Davis protecting rim in same configuration as Spurs did in playoffs last year?

How assist was Kendal Marshall making last year? Is he still a Laker? |

Also you guys need to chill out. Price is still a decent defender, I mean it's lillard for god sakes. You guys just come out of the woodwork to (bleep) on price and try to make Lin look good smh |
No need to get personal with other posters. "Out of the woodwork" as in roaches? Someone else referred to posters as cheap manufactured products. What is the deal? We are not all one race, but we are all humans. |
Don't worry about him, he's not supporting Price, he just hates Lin and Lin supporters. Don't think he watched the game either.
Price good offense tonight. As for being the savior against Lilliard. He definately performed poorer than Lin.
BS? absolutely no coaching from this coach. Didn't see any. It looks like they broke the bank with Kobe and Nash and couldn't hire any SCOUTS. |

Just looking at box scores is the worst way to judge a game. Price made a couple of nice assists but many were easy tosses to boozer and hill. Not much penetration. |
An assist is an assist. Something point guards should do. If Lin makes an easy toss to Black or Boozer do you discount that/
Enlighten me since you saw the game, were Lin's three assists somehow "better" than the "easy tosses" Price made? _________________ “There is always light if only we're brave enough to see it, if only we're brave enough to be it.” --Amanda Gorman

Yeah. That's a problem.
I like Price's effort, but 33 min for him is kind of ridiculous. |

I think Price just plays more and shoot less so he gets more assists while running the system. |

You need good team D against lillard. And you need guys that can cover ground to slow him down. Price styed too close to Lillard who blew by him at will and bigs failed to provide support. I also thought Davis' play has slacked off a bit since being promoted. Hill and Boozer are not rim rotectors, but can't play Davis late due to his free throws. Hopefully Black can conyinue his strong play. But the Lakers did not have enoigh offense in the end. At least i thelast game, it came down to the wire. This one was blown open halfway through the fourth. |

Lin didn't get to see much of the pine tonight to make a real difference. Price had 33 mins - again some nice offense from him, but the first team got owned. |

Again, I don't think anyone is hating on Price. I don't think anyone has high expectation on him except BScott.
However, I seriously question BScott's strategy. He played Price the most minutes. Lin played under 19 minutes and was taken out with about 6 minutes to go, right after he drove and made a layup. Was BScott playing not-to-lose rather than playing to win? |

Whatever. Points are the same for the shot made, they don't award style points. You think Lin's three assists were more to your taste than Price's 12 assists that's your prerogative. I prefer the (at least) 24 points for the Laker team. _________________ “There is always light if only we're brave enough to see it, if only we're brave enough to be it.” --Amanda Gorman |

it's the new buzz word among the coaches - Price brings 'energy' to the team. That's why he's starting. That - what's his name again? coach from Houston started Bev over Lin for the same buzz word. So he gives the pizzz to the pop! There you go - has been coaches - best they can do when asked to coach.
I'm sorry but where were the Laker's scouts? Where did they go? How can a team play the same against every team they come up against? Are the Buss' cheaping out here? |

he is cruising through this season, and tanking... Ronnie plays the second most important player role, Ryan Kelly was put in the starting lineup without seeing a minute before... all these moves are just tanking....
Byron only has one genuine move, that is let Kobe get his numbers, but he run Kobe too hard, can't blame him either, Kobe wanted that way too... |

fair enough. i don't wanna hear about price being so much better than JLin on defense then. lillard himself said before he needed his screens to get JLin off him last game. ronnie price being some defensive stopper is a myth. his defensive efficiency not better than JLin's. |
