DS struggled offensively but had some good defense in the game |

| DS is a good player from bench. he is not a PG for a championship team. |

Giannis is young Lebron without the passing ability |
I remember Lebron was actually quite a good shooter when he entered the league, when he was still relatively lanky (for his standards) lol |
Lebron was pretty good from mid-range, but his 3pt shot pretty much sucked...
after he'd been in the league for a while, he hired a full time shooting coach to help him with his 3. Kept that coach for 2 full seasons. |
That's cool to know. Thank goodness Lebron retained some of his shooting touch even after packing on all that size |

He used to get more elevation on his shots... Not it's close to more of a set shot now.

| KCP continues to look like a steal at his salary. Plays both sides. Someone like Gallinari can't guard a chair or stay healthy got paid 20 million a year. |

The King was awesome again tonight. His dagger trey was Kobe-esque.
KCP was deadly from deep (7-10), in fact the entire team shot lights out (51.4%) from deep. AD, Trez & AC showed up too.
The defense down the stretch was great. All-in-all a good game that I expected the Lakers to win.
GO LAKERS!! |

There was an article back in the day that Lebron was in China for events/promos, and he actually scheduled shooting practice every single day he was there - and he'd flown his shooting coach to China.
you can say one thing about Lebron - when it comes to improving his game or maintaining his body, he doesn't do any half-steps.

Trez is a great addition
This guy plays hard every game and can score on his own. He has a bag of tricks under the basket which the lakers didn’t have last season
I don’t see many defensive issues so far, he got quick feet and draws a ton of charges |

When you set the dvr on TNT’s broadcast and they are blacked out because of Spectrum’s local telecast

| This is why I don't care all that much about us losing to sub-par teams.. Could possibly hurt us at some point but this team can turn it on handle any team in the league when engaged. |

Got to watch the 4th quarter live but missed the rest of the game gonna watch it on the replay.
From the small sample size I caught it looked like Lebron and AD were still on cruise control despite their numbers and the overall outcome? |

I missed the game..can‘t figure out why this was so close ? +30 at 3P, better FT%, less TO‘s, offensive rebounds mainly even....so why is this only a 7 point win ?

Anyone catching this AD post game presser right now on Spectrum?
He’s talking about that time Kobe hurt his shoulder in New Orleans during the Carlos Boozer years.
Playing through his right shoulder injury by making left handed fade-away floaters 🤯🤯🤯🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

First win against a legit top 5 playoff team (in either conference too 5). We really needed one of those wins to prove we have the ability to beat anyone.
What’s crazy is I still think we can play a lot better ...... |

| I would like to see Vogel give Caruso the starting PG spot and have Schroeder come off the bench and see how it makes the team look and how comfortable it makes Schroeder knowing that he is in a position that almost made him win 6MOY |

Giannis looks so ordinary against good defenses.
