Great job Lakers... too bad Westbrook played like garbage as it wasn't even a contest.

Hopefully they can keep it up against the Clippers.

We should have given McGee/Dwight more burn, once Houston was already dead. Need them to get back into rhythm for next series.

I don't see a whole lot minutes for them next round either. The Clips aren't what I would call a big team and play a lot of 5 out basketball.

January 2020- Our first meeting with Houston in Houston , they still had Clint Capella and they were beating us pretty bad in the first half. We didn’t have AD and Rondo that game, and The Harden/Capella pick and roll was destroying us. Westbrook was pretty efficient as well.

Second half we come back and pick them apart. Lebron, Kuz, KCP, and Danny went off.


February 2020- Our second meeting with Houston in Los Angeles. Clint Capella Traded Away in a three team trade for Robert Covington. The beginning of their small ball era..

Westbrook goes for 41 and destroys us giving me flashbacks of his OKC days destroying Ronnie Price, Kendall Marshall, Rookie Jordan Clarkson ext.

Harden with 15, same with Gordon. Lebron and AD just having one of those mid season lapses.



Fast forward to the NBA Bubble

August 2020- No Lebron , No Westbrook.

Lakers playing really bad basketball the first 10-15 games of the bubble. Harden goes for 39 and Ben Mclemore goes for 20. We lose by 16.




Fair to say not many of us thought the Lakers would handle the Rockets this easily. Especially after dropping game 1.
A lot of posters here doubted the Lakers could “flip the switch” after our abysmal re-start in the bubble.


The Lakers clearly answered.
