Lack of depth is has now taken full effect. We need BI back badly.

I'd rather develop T. Bry. |
only thing I can figure there is they want to keep Bryant's confidence up for now |

he does a good job at setting a pace early....but he needs to get better at resetting to pace later in game when he returns and it has slowed....its like when he comes back in, he often just either chooses to play at the pace at the time or cannot force his pace back onto the game

So is Draymond. |
Draymond can score 30...when he chooses to tho. Hopefully lonzo can get a more well rounded game...he has that LeBron front running instinct...that i can't stand. He needs an IT.. someone without a scoring conscious |
must be a different Draymond than I am aware of...the Draymond I know is not a good scorer at all |
Draymond has curry... Thompson and KD....he knows he doesn't have to score...but he has shown the ability to be offensively aggressive...when necessary. |
Dray was 24--in his 3rd year--when he finally broke 29 points (scoring 31)
Zo had 29 in his 2nd game.
Dray has had three 30+ point games EVER. Your theory is based on nothing but spite that a 19-year old Zo isn't already a complete player. |
The position that Lonzo plays is different...it's an initial point of attack position. His passiveness\inability to score on anything besides a 3 really puts pressure on the rest of the team. I hope he works out...he just doesn't scream box office to me...with that game. |

| Almost no contribution from the back court is what killed us tonight... IT bad... Lonzo contributing little after a great start... KCP cold... terrible game. |

We're looking like the low 30 win team ESPN predicted us to be.

Lack of depth does put a laser focus and a magnifying glass on the Laker players who are developing and playing currently - particularly Zo.. Unfortunately he has not picked up his offensive game despite the Lqkers need for the extra punch with no BI, Hart and Clarkson |

I look at this season as experimental. New FO, young developing team. Next season is a teller. This summer will expose or authenticate the Lakers organization return to greatness.

Yeah, he pushes the pace relentlessly to start the game but goes with the flow when reinserted. I wonder if it has to do with him letting IT run the point. I said it before. For being so quick, IT plays slow. |

We weren't mentally ready tonight. They are a playoff team and have an all star and we don't.
