DLo needs to score 40 points on less than 25 shots. Assuming Bron and AD maintain their game 1 production, then we might have a chance, however small that chance is.

Mike Malone's antics are pissing me off.

Darvin Ham says the Lakers will be back to their normal rotation for Game 2.

(I thought we did our regular rotation last time so I'm not exactly sure what this means)

That was me up until the San Antonio game lost in December of this season. That was when I realized this Lakers team is who I thought they were coming out of the off season. That is a down grade from last year, incapable of legitimately competing for a ship without a big body back up C and inadequate back up back court with ineffective coaching. I thought perhaps something would be done about that at the deadline and when it wasn’t I completely gave up on the season.

I was shocked that Ham finally went with starting the main players Rob signed in AD/Rui/LBJ/AR/Dlo. They soared with a surprising win percentage but without a legitimate big body back up C, I’m still not a believer. I hope I’m wrong, anything is possible, it looks like the Lakers can beat Denver if they take care of the ball and rebound well. I think it comes down to that, turnovers and 2nd chance shots. Wood coming back gives a glimmer of hope even if down 0-2 but I also fear another coach will be necessary to win a ship.

YES. We have to overcome so many things including the mismatch issues and the psychological pressure of 9 losses in a row. A good game wouldn't be enough. We need a great game from everyone!!
