This was an old fashioned smack down. Lazy bong rip defense.

How about having our 2 "superstars" take over the game like they're suppose too? I mean that's why they get paid the big bucks right?



Wrong. Westbrook gets paid the big bucks to get triple doubles

I get what you’re saying and that’s up to Vogel to understand strength and weaknesses of his players on the Defensive end. It seems like he just throws in some random line up at times and hoping AD at the 5 would cover it.


Yep. It's...

awful

We were holding them in check that first half with our lead up 9 at one point. That second half start was the worst basketball I’ve seen in a long time.

AD emphasized hoping the rest of the guys come back soon. Definitely showing some fatigue after two games ending in overtime thrillers.
Or who knows maybe too much celebrating for Russ’ bday

The rematch at Minny’s Home December 17th.

I realize we gave up a lot in the Russell Westbrook trade I think the organization needs to have the guts to realize and act on the fact that this was not a good fit and rework this team at the Trade deadline what’s the rest Brooke is not it for this team


I agree.

However, I find it hard to imagine anyone giving up anything of value.

I feel that if we trade WB and get pennies on the dollar, we are admitting that we are jumpstarting this rebuild that is inevitably coming.

LBJ is about to be 37, AD & WB can't lead a team to a victory the way two future HOF players should, and there's nobody that wants Russ's contract or anyone's minimum contract on our team that would sweeten the pot.

We're in a bad spot.

Crazy part is the OKC loses sting a lot more then the T-Wolves lose, because believe it or not Minny has given us issues in recent years and especially when Karl Anthony Towns came to the NBA, heck they were giving us issues when they had Andrew Wiggins and Kevin Love, I think people need to digest a little more, we should have won both OKC games, getting your ass kicked by a team that has a all star big man and 2 good scorers in Anthony Edwards and D’Angelo Russell shouldn’t be as bad as losing to a team like OKC.

The Lakers should have done the same thing. Inexcusable loss.

12:30 games generally seem to be ugly.

The only early afternoon game and ABC isn't interested in televising this.

The Lakers are a puzzle. They play like a playoff team one game, come back the next, and play like a lottery team. SMH

Third quarters remain mystery for Lakers
Quote:
After being a concerning trend early in the season, the Lakers third quarter woes exploded into a full-blown problem on Friday against the Timberwolves.

Clippers are beating Minnesota by 27. Yeah, this Lakers team is garbage. They should throw the season to get a lottery pick and rebuild.

The embarrassing part for the Lakers is that it was predictable.

If they were any good, they would come out ready to destroy the Spurs, but they don’t look capable…so another nail biter.

If they were capable, the home game vs. OKC would have been a beatdown.

And zero excuses. The clippers are taking care of business without their franchise player. It’s PG13 and role players.

Let's face it. The rumors are true. This team is too old!!! Every other team is light years faster than the Lakers. When the Lakers go down, they simply give up and stop competing. Let's all stop fooling ourselves and just admit what everyone had been saying about the Lakers, well they were dead on

OH YE OF LITTLE FAITH!!! It's too early for me to give up. The ice cream is still in the freezer.
