There's some solid pieces on this team guys ...... we just need to find the right rotations and sets.

At least the suns had their starters out there as well, so it was not like we made a comeback against a bunch of scrubs

Good job by Vogel leaving the starters in to partially mask how badly coached this team is.


The team is not badly coached it's badly put together. The pieces don't fit. Sit down and try to put something together that works and you will see it's not that easy. You either have offense and no defense or defense and no offense. Players that do the same and nothing else.

Lakers have a great opportunity to be 3-2 by Wednesday night as long as they don’t mess it up, which they probably will.

It's definitely poorly constructed, but Vogel has been unimaginative on offense his entire career. But yeah, if Rob was half the genius people think he is, he'd recognize that. He does not.

Welp that sucked. But not as bad as it could have. There was a flicker of life in that 4th quarter.

Yeah and this got nothing to do with Westbrook, I think it’s AD not attacking the basket on the regular and we can’t shoot 3s


Gov - 3's werent really the issue tonight. It was everything else

I can definitely see Vogel is on the hot seat right now. Our team is not playing good defense AND bad offense at the same time. There is no excuse we cannot figure something out with that amount of talent.

The team is in dire need of a win to calm their nerves. Next win is probably against the Thunder or Cavs, so two more games of teeth biting my friends

Disagree, the offense is from 20 years ago.

It's not Rob either it's Klutch sports and LBJ and AD calling the shots. Rob fell in love with the devil and the devil will bring you down.

Lost this game in the 2nd quarter and it seems like it carried all the way in the locker room and into the 3rd. Refs have a lot to do with everything that happened.

AD has regressed a lot since 2020 playoff run, and I hope he figures it out soon. If he can’t even make open jumpers, we are going to see a lot of packing the lane

Time to start Reaves in place of Bazemore.

Honestly...I think the team may have found something there in the 4th...anything at this point to build off of works.

No argument here, it’s on Vogel how bad the offense look

We've actually played well in the 4th quarter. But why couldn't they play like this in the 3rd quarter?


The Suns got lazy is the real answer. Lakers taking advantage of sloppy D and hero ball on Suns part.


No, that’s not the answer. The Lakers played harder with more urgency and pressed the Suns, defensively.
The Lakers made the comeback, not the Suns let them comeback….don’t get that confused….
