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

[darthska]

3 games today, all of them 2-0 in favor of the home teams now playing on the road.
If the 6ers hang on this last minute of gametime, then that means that 2 teams started the day 2-0... and ended the day 2-1.
 Let's make it 3 teams!

We should be saying “Let’s go Ham” instead of Let’s go Lakers.

We already know the players are likely to step up at home.

Ham on the other hand is the true X-factor of the series cause he not only gotta outcoach Malone but he also gotta be able to keep his locker room together and keep the players focused on winning 4 of 5, a momentous task. Ham’s lip service, all the cliches and speeches he been spoutin all week isn’t going to work.

First play shows how simple it could be if we stayed consistent with it.

 

[essential1]

Now play this way for the next 46 minutes

 

[kvsm23vs24]

[CP1708]

We're winning the Chip this year.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Does this mean it’s more on the coach or on the players?

 

[frink85]

AD playing angry

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Lakers rebounding is weak af man

 

[essential1]

2 on Jokic.

You better go at him every play. I don’t care.

And try to take charges.

 

[CP1708]

Jokic with 2, for the love of God Lakers......

 

[noblekane]

when ad is out put jaxson hayes on jokic not rui

 

[essential1]

Jokic on Rui. Get Rui into P&Rs. Can’t let Jokic hide.

 

[BRONBROW2020]

in the end 0-3 lol

 

[frink85]

Austin with the fresh cut, I believe

 

[noblekane]

Jokic with 2, for the love of God Lakers......

[grittyman]

Jokic on Rui. Get Rui into P&Rs. Can’t let Jokic hide.

Last game yall hated that strategy though...

I was talking about they had Joker on Rui that first play after his second foul.

Not us guarding Jokic with Rui

 

[ALNotSure]

Good start

 

[essential1]

If Bron doesn’t stop falling asleep and Gordon gets a baseline cut for a score.

It’s the most obvious play that Gordon does.

I'm not talking about defense.

You want the ball handlers to run pick and roll w/ Rui instead of going to AD right?

D'Lo not the first player subbed out. Interesting.
