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

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Kings up 34-16 in points in the paint.

Lakers playing matador defense cause Ham prefers to have guards and small forwards defending the paint rather than power forwards and athletic centers.

Broken record indeed!

 

[essential1]

Fox & Reaves killing us. :/

Keanu is the only Reeves I will acknowledge tonight.

 

[grittyman]

Lakers playing matador defense

All that need to be said.

Austin and Dlo are turnstiles and killing the team on offense as well.

 

[essential1]

I mean don’t lump DLo into what AR is doing tonight.

 

[pmatic]

I don't know how many times Taurean has been back cut this season, but it's been a lot already.

 

[CP1708]

We picked up 4 fouls in 90 seconds on them......

......so naturally started shooting jumpers......

(Not like we can make free throws anyways, but still)

 

[grittyman]

I mean don’t lump DLo into what AR is doing tonight.

He hasn’t been as bad but that’s not really saying much.

If their both not playing go with Prince at the two and insert Wood into the game.

 

[king j]

Ham needs to play Christie

 

[CP1708]

That should be on Fox but I doubt they overturn it.

Prolly change the foul to Lebron.......



*Who's on the bench.

 

[pmatic]

That should be an offensive foul on Fox, I think. But the Lakers have gotten a lot of calls so far, so I won't be mad if they don't overturn it.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Lakers go 2-Big lineup down 66-76.

let's see what happens next lol

 

[CP1708]

That should be on Fox but I doubt they overturn it.

Prolly change the foul to Lebron.......



*Who's on the bench.

Holy ****

He hasn’t been as bad but that’s not really saying much.

My point wasn’t DLo is having a good game. He isn’t really.

Just AR has been the worst player on the court all night. TP a close second, even with hitting shots.

 

[pmatic]

Reaves is really struggling with his P&R reads.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Well whaddaya know, Wood in the game with AD and Lakers go on a 9-0 run as Lakers all of a sudden playing with big energy

 

[pmatic]

Imagine how good this team could be if any of the guards showed a pulse. Taurean has been the best guard and he's a SF for 90% of the time.

 

[drewsone]

Reaves is really struggling with his P&R reads.

its been ******* terrible to start the season man lol

 

[grittyman]

Sit Austin.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Sit Austin.

And put in Max.

But hands stuck in pockets so can't signal out to Christie to enter the game

 

[grittyman]

And put in Max.

But hands stuck in pockets so can't signal out to Christie to enter the game

He can put in Darvin Ham Jr tonight and that would be an improvement.

 

[pmatic]

Another terrible possession to end the quarter. What's the point of a rushed pull up when the advantage of the 2 for 1 is already gone?

 

[CP1708]

Well......we suck and we're only down 4, on the road.

But Fox in the 4th is a pain in the ***.

Would really love to have a bunch of those missed free throws right about now......

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

Reaves and Dlo for Kyrie please

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Gotta start the quarter with Hayes-Wood-Rui then take out Hayes, Rui and finish with Wood-AD-Bron.

 

[fearless]

Ruiiii
