Exepctations tempered. Even further on this one.

Game 2 of the season, and it already feels I'll be waiting out of obligation than excitement.

Unfortunately BOTH teams are THAT bad but fortunately we have a 50-50 chance of winning (unlike last night)

This could be a must-win if we want to avoid the worst record of all time.

We have to win this game against a hapless Suns team that nearly lost by 50.

At least beat the teams we're supposed to beat. Ingram v. Josh Jackson will be an interesting duel. Who is guarding Booker? Please don't tell me Deng.

Haha which teams are we "supposed" to beat though? Even against the worst teams it's going to be somewhat of a coinflip no?

Luke should be fired if the Lakers lose this game. No excuses. Suns are garbage.

Based on preseason projections. We were bad, but the Suns were playing like a D2 NCAA team vs. the NBA.

Even if you're a better team than the Lakers, you have a fighting chance due to Luke's rotations.

Back to back without KCP again. Just play hard for 48 minutes and I will be okay with the results win or lose.
