Why do I bring this up? Because the Lakers supporting cast is not pulling their weight tbh.

15 points from our backcourt. Schroder with 8 points on 3-10. I don’t care how he feels about it. He is not a starter. He’s not

Lakers actually guarded the paint well this game. Only 30 pts for the nuggets in the paint. Too bad for the Lakers, the Nuggets bench turned into steph curry. And Nuggets has too many FT.

Are we shooting badly from downtown only because we're in a slump, or because our good 3-pt shooting the first month of the season was fool's good?

A GOOD POST FROM ONE OF LGS RESIDENT DOCTORS

A strain means not a tear but we don't know for sure until the MRI. A better analogy is what happened with KD and the warriors so it's surprising to have him play.

Hopefully it's just a strain/tendinosis and he can rest 6 weeks with full recovery.

I'm still waiting to see how DS is worth more than 15 mil a season.

They aren't as good, that's why I was so irritable about signing Schroder to a long term contract.

I actually think it is relevant given that we are the deeper roster this season.

THT should not start until he understands defensive principles. He will drive LeBron crazy. He already was frustrated with him all game

A bit of both is my guess. Yea, they Lakers can stink it up from 3, did so last year too, but some of their 3 shooting percentages of late have been utterly abysmal.

Kuzma is so aggressive in this game. I am hoping he will be like this now that AD will likely miss many games.

We’re not a good three point shooting team. We could be in a slump too but I just don’t think we’re good

Yeah, at least with Kobe he didn’t have a pre-existing Achilles problem. And at least with KD it was an elimination game in the FINALS.

They chose to play AD in a meaningless regular season game when home court advantage will mean nothing.

Law of averages catch up. KCP is on a slump, and we know he's a very good 3pt shooter.

He has been the only bright spot for me for the past several games while and then like the energy guys like THT, Trez and AC. But seeing Kuz developing has been a really pleasant thing.
