4/22 from 3pt for Monk/Melo/Ellington

Huge FT disparity with plenty of questionable calls

No LeBron

Monster game from Giannis

Weak game from AD

And with all that... Lakers lose a close game...

There are no moral victories. All the above equates to is another “L” in the standings.

Time to start putting together some wins.

We played well today im proud of the team. Sounds weird we lost but i thought we would get steamrolled. Showed some fight. Gives me hope for when we are fully healthy this team would look good. At least on offense lol.

We have Lebron today we win this game. Not even about his play on offense. He'd have a couple of defensive plays on Giannis. I think the only player Giannis cant bully is Lebron. Dude is built like a (bleep) mountain.

I hate this team always chucking 3’s
Take the ball inside..
Why can’t we do that??


We made 4 3s in the 3rd quarter but didn't make any in the 4th.

We can't afford too many "moral victories". We need real victories as we're hanging on to the 8th playoff spot. Wins, any win will be vital this season. Get a real victory next game. No more moral victories.

During LeBrons layoff we could have been splicing videos of him as Rocky IV training for Ivan Antetokounmpo

It took a rare game from Giannis for them to win with no LeBron. Solid game on the road. Liking how Russ and THT are playing. Russ seemed like he was in a good mood after the game. I think he senses the tide is turning.

I saw some positive traits last night in the loss. They didn't give up. Vogel's lineup and rotations improved. The Lakers were not at full strength but put up a hellofa fight.

We're a team in transition, not at full strength, playing without the team's best player for the last 4, 5 games but we're playing 500.

When we get there, full strength, the way the Dubs are playing without Klay Thompson, it's gonna be a dog fight. Step Curry is on a mission.

The Rocky clip that always comes to my mind with Laker Lebron is more the “yeah I mean business too” scene. Always has been.

Lakers win if AD was a tad more aggressive overall.
