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

[MVP]

team sucks unless it's an IST game

 

[pmatic]

I’m prolly the only one here that’s ok with this loss.
Exum shoots like 30% from three. I know he was wide open and nba players should hit open 3s but whatever. Congrats to him for making them.

You really shouldn't lose to the Mavs with no Kyrie and Green. Plus Luka, TH Jr and Grant Williams ailing and playing the second night of a back to back.

Bron and AD brought their A games tonight too.

 

[essential1]

All game. Didn’t bother to say. Stop helping off your guy.

Then just runs a lineup into the ground when it’s clear it wasn’t working.

 

[lovehateself]

Exum going for 30

LeSigh

I agree with that but I just knew there would be a falloff after the in season tournament. The rest of the guys not used to 500k still coming off that high

 

[Lizakers]

F’n hate Dallas and stupid celebrating Cuban

 

[tupac003]

Crazy how we can look like an all world defensive team one night to this.

That's what I don't understand. The last 2 IST games we were great.

Tonight we looked like we never played defense before.

 

[sohi 23]

Pretty easy. Our Luka defender was out.
The 2nd defender played Luka well on defense in the first but then missed the 2nd half

After that luka had TP, AR, Dlo & Rui on him… they got nothing for him

There was definitely a effort letdown compared to Saturday, but Haliburton for as good as he is not Luka. Luka will butcher any defense that blitzes him like the Lakers always attempt to.

 

[pdino]

Lose to Mavs on their 2nd night back-to-back but if we lose tomorrow, guaranteed “well, 2nd night of back to back” excuse. Rest AD/Bron if that’s the case, Spurs are pretty bad

 

[Lizakers]

Luka + a bunch of Smush Parkers vs Lebron and AD

no excuses please. Who cares about our injuries. Dallas didn’t have Kyrie

 

[MVP]

They showed the defensive numbers for the season IST vs regular. It's like a 20 pt difference almost. That's inexcusable.

*scratching neck*

Y'all got anymore of them tournament games?

 

[grittyman]

Will leave Exum open from three 100 times out of 100, if he hits em tip your cap … gg

 

[noblekane]

rui and hayes gave us 40 minutes of jack **** but you wont atleast try wood?

Rui’s been injured or riding the pine lately, probably just his time to get some PT so he can get his rhythm back. There be some stretches where either him or Wood will be the odd man out…Hayes is a scrub but at least he provides a different look with his size and ability to catch lobs.

 

[essential1]

4th quarters over the last 10 games.

Over the season as a whole

 

[grittyman]

The defensive effort last night from a few guys was ridiculous… but we all knew a let down was coming

 

[king j]

Rui’s defensive effort was big trash last night

 

[noblekane]

jaxson hayes does more harm than good

amirite Korofi ?

 

[49erholic]

My grandmother had this stashed away since like the 90's

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Rui is a space cadet 50% of the time.

The other 50%, he looks like a young Bron. It's so weird.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

50 point game from Wemby tonight?
