18-12 now. When do you think we can double up our losses with wins? Can we go 16-5 in the next 21 games? That would make us 34-17.


We need our players back first

Lonzo needs to work on his handles. He is literally Roberson with good passing. He shouldnt bring the ball up, or run the break

Huh? Sure he can work on it. But he's pure enough. Not Roberson.

Some random guy yells at Lance to shoot from 30 feet and he does it with no hesitation.

Sure, Wall with 40 and 4 guys with 20.

This team has to play better defense...

I know we won big yesterday but we are too up and down on defense and terrible on offense....

Is it Luke?


Mcgee out, ingram. Mcgee defends the paint, today we were killed there. Bron tottally missing in action. Only fault i see on luke is that he didnt take timeout to say players not to waste energy and morale to arguing with refs. Sometimes u get a call sometimes u dont, so pointless to whine and cry.

without a second star our margin for error is very small... great teams can play their C game and beat teams like the Wiz... just need to be patient

Without Javale our second layer of defense was absent so wiz would just walk right in

We should play either BI or Lonzo with

BI/Lonzo
Hart
Svi
Kuzma
Mo

on the second unit.

Nothing but shooters and no Lance hogging all the shots.

We gave up 70 points in a half anyway... so at least this way we could outscore them.

Lakers have the respect of the league now. Teams are treating these games against us more seriously and giving their best effort. We were able to sneak up on teams last season, not gonna happen now that we're a playoff team with Lebron. I also really don't like Wall. Another one of those punchable faces.

Every other game it seems like the Lakers take a (bleep) in the bed. Their level of play is completely inconsistent. It's like they walk onto the court completely unprepared to play basketball. They fumble the ball around like they've never seen one before in their lives.

No JaVale, Ingram or Rondo. 2nd night of a back-to-back. Team clearly hangover from last game.

Nothing to see here. On to the next one.

Finish 2-2. Hart and Kuz need to show up (2 way play) or they will be back on the 2nd unit.

Of course the rest of the starters just tore it up V the Wizards!

The Wizards absolutely pose no threat to anyone. Bunch of frontrunners and not a good team at all.

That being said, they won their December championship. Not much stock taken from this game, I kind of expected a loss. Still stings, but whatever...now please go out and blow out the Nets.

I think I've figured out the Lakers Defensive Plan, it's been around for many years:

It's known by the acronym: "H-TOM" (which stand for: "Hope The Opponent Misses").

Of course the Laker players are working on their own version of it, know as "LGWF" (which stands for: "Lets Get Walton Fired").

Go Team...!

RECAP:

LeBron’s season-low 13 in blowout caps Lakers’ eventful week

Quote:
This was hardly the ideal way for LeBron James and his Los Angeles Lakers to cap what amounted to an eventful week of highs and lows.

And arriving one night after what seemed to be a breakthrough performance, this dud demonstrated just how much more room for improvement four-time NBA MVP James and his new teammates have.

Couldn't overcome the loss of McGee and on back-to-back night. Lebron might be worn out by how much he's been carrying the team. We need Rondo and BI back otherwise we're gonna get slaughtered like this again on back to back due to lack of depth.

Kuz isn’t going to the bench.

If he reverts back to no defense, he could end up on the bench. I don’t think he will but Kuz and Hart need to remember what earned them starting spots/more minutes.
