Smart inbounds Lebron. Even if intercepted pins them in the back corner

Grizzlies are gonna be a tough team to deal with when they get Ja Morant and JJJ back.

This looked like the old days of the grit and grind grizzlies. It seems like nothing was a foul out there.

Lakers best record in the West as of now. Only 6ers with 1 loss has a better record. Easy schedule helps while they get their legs under them.

I dunno TBH. Without Morant and JJJ they are such a gritty team but their identity might change a little with them back? We'll see, it's kinda hard to tell. This is an extreme example but remember when Kyrie slotted back into the Celtics?

KCP's spacing really gets the offense unscrewed. Looking forward to his return along with AC.

Memphis scored 4 points between the 5:18 mark to the 23 second mark of the fourth. I'm ignoring that final 23 seconds of "what in the *&*# was that"

This game was SUPER UGLY. And, it was a combination of things. Lakers played the whole game with low energy, in contrast to Memphis's high energy. Bad shooting night for the team, as a whole. Grizzlies bench drubbed ours, soundly. A lot of that is the team is still trying to figure themselves out, offensively. No flow on offense, at all. Very stagnant. Defense was solid, though. Refs weren't great, hate to say. I guess they were allowing Memphis some "extra stuff" , since they're missing so many players. No big.

All in all, glad with the win, but definite see lots to improve on. Lakers!

I don’t mind the sluggish play, but those TOS on the inbounds really kill me. That’s the sign of a team that’s coasting and unfocused. Gotta clean up the slop.

Ugly for the most part, but just keep racking up the Ws and work to squash the bad habits.

It’s amazing what Lebron is doing at his age with all that mileage.

They are only playing with enough energy simply to win the game. The lakers have not played any game with any energy or with focused.

Ugly game as we escape with the W.

Something about Memphis were we are always in a slug fight with them.
This time around Marc and Lionel Hollins is on our side though.

Will face them again at Staples in February Probably this time around with Ja Morant.


Lebron and AD 34 minutes 26 points a piece

Lebron +20

AD +12

Marc +11

Dennis -1

Kuzma +21
