Worthy looks very depressed, I feel bad for him, maybe a Jim Dean Whiskey might help him...

I love Worthy... Agree with what he said about ending the show right there and then... how many times can you repeat the same lame commentary over and over?

I was happy about the loss but had to watch Worthy's reaction. Didn't disappoint.

They are so far away from being a competitive team. I honestly don't see how FA can turn this around even if they do sign a 'star.' What a mess from the top all the way down...

Trust me signing a star FA will go a long way in helping this team.. can’t phantom how Important a 2nd star is to this team even if it ends up being Kemba or Butler.

I would build the team around Lonzo's strengths not LeBron

Yes but he's young and motivated. LeBron isn't getting younger

I can say for him: Lakers should hire more ex show time Laker, hire Byron Scott back as head coach, Rambis as top assistant, trade LeBron, get Kobe back, revive chick Hearn, move back to the Forum..... yeah the same usual clinging on to the past glories stuff.

Bro, this isn't the team that's returning next season. It isn't all doom and gloom. The biggest issue is the injury bug, not the roster. We were 15-8 when Lebron/BI/Ball played together.

Most people, including myself, probably had us in the 6-8 range when the season started, so our margin for error was small to begin with. When you suffer as many injuries to starters as we have, with a small margin for error, this is the result. A lot of L's.

It's getting to a point where I worry about James Worthy's sanity a little more after each loss. Having to endure 6 straight years of this joke of a team takes its toll on a person.

OR, alternatively, we could package Lonzo for a 1st round pick if anybody would take that trade, which we might then package in a larger trade.

He did say he wants to play in Phoenix, and taking the extra last 25 games of the season off might have something to do with that. In my view he should be out there playing, he desperately needs the playing time with Lebron.

the team had a rough time right out of the gate, and didnt reach .500 till like 20+ games in. This is because they had no core, reallly, and were badly coached. Then Lebron started pushing into high intensity mode and they got to about 4th in the West and had some good wins. Then once Lebron sprained his groin the team quickly fell out of the playoff picture. Rondo injury was a bit of a factor, Lonzo injury not really, they were already done by then and the 7 points 7 rebounds or whatever who cares

Or move him to the bench (with Kuzma) and surround him with shooters.

Jim Dean Whiskey? Never heard of it. Or did you mean to say Jim Beam?

Actually James seems more like a Hennessy VS kind of guy.
