James Worthy

#spurs offense too versatile, their ball movement forces defense to give up something at any position.

Kevin Ding

Kupchak said he didn't want any D'Antoni talk from Dwight anyway given Mitch's insistence that Lakers won't ... sulia.com/c/la-lakers/f/…

Kevin Ding

Kupchak said he is not concerned about that relationship and "absolutely" believes Howard and D'Antoni can grow a strong coach-star bond.

Kevin Ding

Talked to Mitch Kupchak about his private exit meeting with Dwight Howard. Mitch: "There was no discussion of the coach whatsoever." #lakers

My column on Vinny Del Negro. It was only a matter of time before Clippers' expectations and his fate crossed paths. espn.go.com/los-angeles/nb…

Phil Jackson skeptical that Dwight Howard has reason to return to Lakers lat.ms/1a3lFcH

Gary Lee

Alright. I'm done eviscerating Dan Gilbert. He has to go back to Cleveland. That's punishment enough. DB

Kamenetzky Brothers

New podcast dropping tonight! Topics include Dwight (shock!), PJ's book, Bieber's monkey, The Fast and the Furious franchise. AK

Gary Lee

"We made the Finals once!" - Dan Gilbert

Gary Lee

LeBron still won't go back to Cleveland. DB

Gary Lee

"Hey, we lost all our good players because it sucks here, but we stay winning that lottery!" - Dan Gilbert. DB

Gary Lee

Dan Gilbert's jacket is about as putrid as his attempt to keep LeBron was. DB

Gary Lee

Can we do the top three pick in Comic Sans? I'm not sure Dan Gilbert will be able to read the picks otherwise. DB

Gary Lee

Cleveland back in the Top 3 of the draft lottery. Stay successful, Dan Gilbert.

Gary Lee

The Lakers are going to win the draft lottery. Book it. DB

My preview of tonight's Kings-Sharks game. espn.go.com/los-angeles/co…

Arash Markazi

Not saying it will happen but the Clippers would be smart to make a play for Jackson and do what the Lakers didn't: Wait for an answer.

Arash Markazi

So what if Jackson is engaged to Buss? That's not "creepy." That's life. Ask James Carville and Mary Matalin.

Arash Markazi

There's a lot of creepy things in this world. The Clippers making a run at Phil Jackson wouldn't be one of them.

Phil Jackson on current Lakers lineup winning: "I don't know about that. They can't run because of the age and incapability of speed."

Phil Jackson on Dwight Leaving: "Would you if you felt your game wasn't going to be featured?"

Sacks (cont) - "This was a difficult decision, but we feel this is the best decision for our franchise moving forward.” #clippers #nba

Sacks (cont) - “Vinny helped this team win a Pacific Division title & we greatly appreciate all that he and his staff helped us accomplish."

#Clippers GM Gary Sacks: “We would like to thank Vinny for everything he did during his three years with the organization." (cont) #nba

Gary Lee

In his book, Phil Jackson compares the 2000 Lakers w/ the 09 Lakers. Which team do you think was better? DB bit.ly/192brMa

Kamenetzky Brothers

Just invented a joke: What time is it when Dwight Howard sits on a fence? (Send the punchline back...) BK

Janis Carr

Remember when the only time anyone was talking about the Clippers was in reference to the lottery? Times have changed

David Brickley

The Clippers have released Head Coach @TadAllenRay

Arash Markazi

Clippers are looking at the next 5 years with CP3 and Griffin as the cornerstones. VDN was not going to be the coach for the next 5 years.

Arash Markazi

Sources said Clippers would talk to CP3 and Griffin before making any coaching moves. If they wanted him back, he'd be back.

Arash Markazi

There was no rush to a decision with VDN signed through June and Sterling looking at some coaches currently coaching.

Arash Markazi

No surprise that VDN is gone. It was only a matter of time after four straight losses to Memphis in the 1st round.

David Brickley

I realize Bill Russell, Robert Horry, Kareem, MJ, Pippen, etc have six rings+. However, out of all the great players in history. Its rare.

Kamenetzky Brothers

How large a PR hit would Dwight Howard take if he left the Lakers? #repost sulia.com/my_thoughts/8d…

Clippers fire Del Negro? Who's next?

Gary Lee

Breaking News: NBA head coach in Los Angeles has been fired. (via @NBASportsCity) DB bit.ly/12sfagL

David Brickley

Name players who have won six or more championships. Yeah...very rare.

David Brickley

I love the LeBron debate: "Listen if he wins 6 more championships that puts him at 7. One above MJ." People say that as if it is easy.

Phil Jackson says he was offered the Lakers coaching job before they hired D'Antoni. Wait, what? DB bit.ly/12s9Mu5

Gary Lee

In my opinion, Phil Jackson's ability to understand his players and get them to work together was his best asset. DB bit.ly/12s9Mu5

Kevin Ding

Should be noted that D'Antoni did wind up posting Dwight more by season's end, tho somewhat b/c of Lakers' limited options.

The Voice got the Beyonce Fan in full effect . . . .no bueno

Gary Lee

It wouldn't help Dwight's reputation as a coach killer, but the Lakers would 100% choose Dwight over D'Antoni. DB bit.ly/17WECkK

Gary Lee

If most fans blame #Pringles for running Kobe into the ground , what happens if #Pringles is the reason Dwight leaves the Lakers?

Gary Lee

If it comes down to losing Howard or firing D'Antoni, the team will let MDA go. Which is what most fans seem to want them to do. DB

Gary Lee

Could this be the first domino to fall? Dwight Howard apparently not fond of Mike D'Antoni. Here we go. DB bit.ly/17WECkK

Kobe Bryant

Interesting off season looming.. Will spend time with d12 #stay and talk with the Buss family in hopes that Pau stays as well #my2cents
