Idk why people are trippin off Ingram.
He had two subpar games. So did Kuz.
Pretty sure if he had played the past 3 games he would’ve looked better as the team is geling.
He’ll be fine. |

On his way out of Staples Center @KobeBryant told me and @taniaganguli what he thought of his first close-up look at LeBron James as a Laker.

I think Lakers are fine with Lonzo/Rondo splitting minutes regardless who starts. It is pretty clear Kuz is best starting. Sure you could play Ingram at the 2 if you need to start him, but imagine if Ingram was our 6th man and could handle the ball when Lebron is resting. That seems ideal. |
I think this is the best option. I hope BI doesn't take it personally because he could kill it in a bench role |

This was a big win against a good Denver team coming off a back to back. |

Agreed. By doing this we should sustain a strong lineup at all times on the floor. |

Thinking the same, if he is moved to the bench will his confidence and game take a hit? He's a great defender though. We gotta see how he plays with Hart and Zo in the starting line up before we make that move though. Hope he's watching and learning right now |

LeBron's triple-double leads Lakers past Nuggets 121-114
Quote: | eBron James had 28 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds while leading the Los Angeles Lakers' late rally for his first home victory at Staples Center, 128-111 over the previously unbeaten Denver Nuggets on Thursday night.
Kyle Kuzma scored 22 points and JaVale McGee added 21 to complement James' 74th career triple-double, his first with his new team. |

I'm going with the lineup I think would be most effective to finish:
Lonzo
Hart
Ingram
Kuzma
Lebron |
Duh, i forgot about Javale. Who sits for him to start games? |
Easy - Ingram |

This was also a big win because I hate Jokic and Murray. |

Some people forget what he did in Feb last year and even the preseason when he was balling in some of the games. |

Yup. He’s the X factor. If he’s able to fit in and assert himself..our team goes to another level. Especially with how good hart Kuz and Zo have been able to fit in. |

Beat Denver on a back-to-back without two of its starters. Lakers are slowly playing up to expectation. Watch out the rest of the league! Lebron ain't even in beastmod3 yet. _________________ LeGoat! LeMazing! LeGend! |

I was thinking too how to reintegrate BI and Rondo but I think what their absence brought was discovering the teams identity on how to play. Now you can plug them in when they come back. They can come off the bench for the meantime and learn where to pick their spots in this template. _________________ Let's Go Lakers!!! |

Had to pause for company, just watched the second half before coming here.
Wow. Great game Lakers.
Stephenson - I take back all teh bad crap I said about him. He rallied this team when it mattered with some great bb.
Lots of good performances tonight!
And reaaally nice to hand Denver their first loss.
