Yeah man. Danny Green looks bad right now. This offense is not generating many good looks from three either.

Lakers tried doing that with Lebron and PG. PG decided to stay in OKC. Didn't work out. We can't say they didn't try.

I don't get how we're using some of our players.. and the lack of ball movement is disturbing.... looks like we're standing around waiting for something to happen rather than quickly moving people and the ball...


Let's hope this coaching staff has the ability to install an Offensive system!

Avery Bradley, Kostas, KCP and Mcgee.

The rest were garbage sp. Caruso and Norvell.

Lol preseason. Classic LG overreactions. Lakers didn’t do themselves any favors by posting an idiotic tweet after a preseason win.

The only thing that matters is AD’s injury.

Even if the lakers struggle in the regular season...as long as they make the playoffs healthy, I’ll take LBJ and AD against anyone

Preseason is best way to gel/establish patterns with a new roster. Remember the "lets not overreact to the preseason" with the 2012-2013 Lakers. How did that end?

Vogel should be doing what a lot of teams are doing. Practice WHAT YOU ARE going to do in the regular season during the preseason. especially in the 1st 2 quarters, then give 2nd half game time the fringe players to see what diamonds you have have.

It's going to take another offseason for the Lakers to get it right, but Lebron and AD are such elite top end talents that the Lakers can be challengers if those two can get to the playoffs healthy.


another off season? if lebron is slow now, hes not gonna get quicker/better as he gets older

AD is 25 but maybe im being too critical, but he has some unusual body control/mechanic at times; making him kinda cringeable at the way he hops, lands etc. similar to Kuz or Lonzo. They need to improve lower extremity stability and strength.

Rondo sucked. The positive might be that Vogel grows a pair and tells Pelinka and Klutch that he won’t play him anymore.

Everyone knows it's preseason but...

Lakers major problems won't go away as the season progresses.

Lack of decent starting point and backup center.

No Bron isn't the answer at the point.

We could have gotten the combination of Faried and Ryan Anderson as our backup bigs instead of Dwight.

Good sign that Bradley got his jumper going, now we just need Green to get his feet wet before the season opener begins because if Bradley and Green are playing well that changes our dynamics.

I just want to see us play some good basketball. Everything has been so ugly outside of that first preseason game against the Warriors, whose front court was devastated with injury to the point where they were starting Spellman and the Lakers’ bigs took advantage. Show we can play some (bleep) defense on the three point line and score consistently.

Thanks Javelle for being the only one to show up. Bradley still shooting a doughnut from 3. Jordan is the player we need Howard to be, Brooklyn has built a nice team.

Lakers have problems but not sure I agree with things you listed.

My concerns are youth and Athleticism. Ability to defend the perimeter and hustle back on Defense consistently.

He was available to play in the 1st match up with the Nets but Vogel decided
not to play him.
