**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[drewsone]

they just gotta play their game from the tip
always coast when they get a little lead then try to turn the "switch" on lol
prototypical symptom of lebron teams tho lol

 

[CHAOSE57]

Good game by the Raptors, they wanted this more.

 

[DLF]

lakers will be 7-3 tuesday night. then a back to back. yikes! life comes at you fast right?

 

[drewsone]

The Lakers didn't play hard until the last four minutes.

100%

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Raptors got length and athleticism with Siakam, Boucher, Ibaka, OG, ntm size with Gasol. Plus Lowry, FVV, and Hollis-Jefferson, they gonna be a tough out in the east.

Lakers have an idea of what gives them problems.

 

[tupac003]

Kuz and Bron fans about to play defense in 5, 4, 3, 2...

 

[tatayniDarna]

This thread is AIDS

 

[fearless]

we not going to win against the Suns next week.

 

[tupac003]

Now you drive to the rim Kuz....lmao

 

[tupac003]

we not going to win against the Suns next week.

You mean Tuesday?

 

[geno90221]

Kuz for a Daytona Rolex

 

[mr j 858]

Fire Frank Vogel chants going to start after we lose @ Phoenix Tuesday night lmao

 

[tupac003]

Game out of hand, Kuzma finally drives to the basket two times in a row...

Those braids must be too tight.

We straight but damn this is game we should have won going away.

 

[pmatic]

KCP was so bad in his first half stint he got DNP'd in the second half.

 

[drewsone]

Yeah Suns gonna be tough
If they try to only play with urgency in the last quarter they in for a long night

Bron looked extremely "year 17" tonight
but Raptors got a lot of O. Boards and Siakam cooked Kuz

Vogel is rushing Kuz back to quickly into this. He should’ve be capped to about 20 minutes a game until he got the rust off. He shouldn’t have been out there this heavy taking those shots.

But it’s only the 2nd loss. No cause for alarm.

Nah Kuz just not playing smart. It's like he lost his offensive bag in the offseason. He's content to just chuck 3s when he showed it all from a repertoire standpoint last season even with his 3 ball falling off.

He should be benched for the rest of the season

 

[CHAOSE57]

Realistically speaking we not winning all 82 games. I hate to say it but we need losses like this here and there, it gives them idea of what to work on so they won’t be complacent on games like this in the future.
Just another one of the 82, on to the next one.

This. This this this!

I agree with the shooting but at the end of the day, it his 3rd game back with a new squad and system. Now if this was his 13th, I may agree. I’m gonna give it a little more time for him to settle in to things before I just get in on the I hate Kuz bandwagon.

 

[geno90221]

Wished KCP got caught with them gummies

 

[mr j 858]

This was opening night all over again.

Tied game going into the 4th in both games and washed Lebron shows up. Also the paid 3 & D guys like Danny Green, Avery Bradley and Kuz can't hit 3's.

That's going to be the blueprint to beat the Lakers this season.

 

[pmatic]

Really don't like all these minutes Bron and AD are accumulating.

 

[tay1]

Also, Vogel is hit and miss with the lineups. That lineup with Bron, Dudley and whoever at that time was nuts
