That makes no sense. You make the second and foul right away. It's only a 3 point game if they make both on the other end.


You miss the 2nd so that you get the offensive rebound, put it in, and you are tied


That is the wrong play.....unless you have no time for the other team to shoot fts and get the ball back you have to make the ft.

Honest truth is Randle should not out there, TRob should....


Actually if T Rob was out there it was Yi he should have been replacing, Randle was part of the reason we went on that run.

Yi did nothing all game but get destroyed in all aspects and then hit one three at the end.

Shouldn't be enough to save him on this team or give him PT over T Rob in a moment like that.

Lakers almost pulled off the win against a so called rising team in the West.

Lakers are gonna be real good this year as long they stay healthy.

You can make a strong case that Clarkson was our worst player this preseason.

yall blaming randle for that play dying?

what yall was lookin at?


No we're blaming him for not being able to make 1 ft.


Im not speaking to that aspect my good friend

we know that

but its some retroactive blaming going on because he missed the FT


If he had made both FTs that dude would complain that he didn't make 3. Constant whiner.

VLF is correct with only 5 secs you miss the second ft and hope for a rebound

Stupid media biases. Both talented but DLo has way more impact. With that said Booker needs to be our starting SG in the future.

That makes 0 sense. If they make both on their end we're down 4....


The goal would be to get the offensive rebound


Plenty of time left though. And we had timeouts.

Make the FT, foul, and worst case down 3 with 3-4 seconds to go and ball advanced.

Preseason.

Priority is to see who has chemistry with who, how players respond to certain situations, etc...

It's practice with other teams.


It's going to take Luke a good while to realize what Coach Bud realized in Atlanta -- that Lou should not be on any team that wants to play legitimate defense. But yes, I'll give Luke the benefit of the doubt until he figures it out.

So many people making it obvious that Julius is their whipping boy this year no matter what he does or how well he plays. They'll find a way to blame him for everything.

i am talking about that specific play...if there was a miss, I am 80% confident TRob gets his hands on it for a tip back, rebound, or tap out at a minimum.

I'd prefer Fultz or Jackson, assuming they defend at least a little bit.

Good effort and good defense in spurts, it's going to take a lot of work to become more consistent.

Growing pains for sure. GO LAKERS!

Clarkson was great defensively tonight. I don't know what you're watching.
