Makes me sick to my stomach.

They probably should have just stopped the game when Dwight hit that 3.

I was like "what the hell are you...oh, nice shot...."

“Lakers aren’t good they’ve just had an easy schedule”

Ok then...

32 fast break points on the 2nd night of a back to back.

The Lakers are soooo getting drug tested tomorrow.

Lol it is December 4th. Tweets like that is exactly why most hate lakers fans even though the lakers fans on here are cool for the most part

Just trying to figure out what teams, and where the Lakers have to play and beat in order to get a bit of respect?

Apparently the BS "weak schedule" argument doesn't hold much water...

Or is it that after an abysmal 6 years, Lakers fans aren't allowed to have a bit of fun any more?

Reality is Lakers can win 65 games but if it doesn't end with a title then the season was a failure. Same goes for Milwaukee, Philly, Clippers, & Rockets

Who isn't giving them respect? Did anyone here say wins in Denver and Utah were not good wins? Lol

For a team who is legit title contenders, you're way too worried about what others think. They played 3 games this month which is setup to be tougher than the schedule the first 1.5 months of the season. They're 2-1 in those games.

The facts is the Lakers schedule was easy prior to the start of this month. I don't see what is so hard to admit about that.

People have been saying that the Lakers record was the result of a weak part of the schedule.

They then beat 2 teams that are supposed to be really good on back to back nights...tweet about it and it's the..."this is why most people hate Lakers fans" bullshit.

Actually, it wasn't an easy schedule. It was what I said it was all month. It was an average schedule.

It wasn't like they were getting fat on teams like the Cavs and Knicks...

but they weren't exactly playing a bunch of contenders either.

It was a middle of the road schedule and while they have a better record than most thought they would at this point, they basically did what they were supposed to with it.

Lmao a weak schedule is a part of the reason they went 16-2 or whatever it was in addition to being a damn good team. If the weak schedule didn't play a factor in them having 2 losses entering December then i guess we should expect them to only lose 1 more game this month? You know since the schedule had absolutely nothing to do with their hot start to the season.

I literally had one of my lakers friends reach out to me shortly after the Clippers game and say they probably shouldn't lose a game until December because they saw what the schedule looked like. It isn't a crime to have a easy stretch of games but denying that the schedule was soft is hilarious

KCP looked like a decent player for a minute...

speaking of players that used to be ok, Joe Ingles? what happened to THAT guy...?

Said he was overpaid and got ripped for it....LOL.

It was a pretty soft schedule. Out of the 21 games we've played, like 8 opponents have a record over .500 and 3 of those teams are the last 3 games.

Just a guess, but I think losing Derick Favors and Rubio play a big part in his struggles.

Their team dynamic has been off. Conley has played really poorly and has not been able to facilitate the offense as well Rubio did. Also, Favors was a legit interior threat who could draw occasional double teams that now doesn’t exist for Utah.

Don’t think Ingles will shoot 30% from 3 all year, but he is a system guy playing in a somewhat broken system.

I've always said the same...

can't call the season a complete success without an O'Brien...
