I can handle losing games where we don't give up 100 points.
Our FT shooting and outside shooting overall was horrific and we lose by 8 with Lonzo and Kuz playing well....I can accept that! _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

Sad, that we lost tonight. Lonzo finally looking good with his shot is a good thing. Or maybe he was Bledsoe and his eyes opened up lol. Seems to defend very well shooting percentages wise.
I think this team is just lacking freethrow shooting and 3 point shooting. They really do need a shooting coach. Could be tired legs, we've played back to back ever week this season. PLayed some tough teams during that stretch too. |

- Missed FTs
- Clarkson is a dumb basketball player
- Corey Brewer should never put his feet on a basketball court |

Lonzo and Kuzma looking like talented, intelligent and hungry NBA players...the difference between those two and the rest of our roster is noticeable.
Damn shame it seems like the previous 3 seasons before this we spent all of our time and draft picks on just dumb players who have no idea how to play winning basketball. BI gets a pass from me, because he has improved mentally this year.
LONZO
BI
KUZ
The rest of the team is garbage, don't care if we keep a single one of them. |

Our 3-point shooting is always a great bet to be terrible. That's the construct of this team. That was why I thought we would struggle to win 30 games. There is a lot to like with how we're playing, particularly defensively, but it's really hard to consistently win games when you are a poor 3-point shooting team. |

That's why we have the two max plan for George/Lebron and Cousins.
Lonzo
George
Ingram
Kuzma
Cousins
Gonna be amazing next season. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |

Nobody should really be dumping on Randle, but people instinctively to do it. His defense against Giannis was about as good as you can expect with him getting a few stops. |

This. I said in the thread about this stretch that I wouldn't be shocked if we went 1-4 or even 0-5. One of the reasons I was so pissed at Luke against Boston was that I knew he was squandering one of our few chances to steal a win against a team missing two of their best front court players and that wins would be hard to come by on this trip. Even our next game agains the Suns will be tough now that they're not hampered by Bledsoe and Watson. Hey re giving the Wolves some trouble right now. |

Magic could give Rasheed Wallace a $100M contract next summer and this dude would be ball washing. |
