KCP misses twice and with the three, the Heat get the lead down to 8.

Ingram gets a T for jawing with a Heat player. KCP keeps the lead at ten with that shot.

LBJ doing his best imitation of Kobe Ball. LBJ has a season-high 46 points. Most points for a Laker this year.

We are 9-7 and headed to Cleveland for Wednesday's game against another of LeBron's former teams. Let's see if he has another Kobe-type night there.

With that win we bump Houston out of the 8th seed spot early on in this season.

What is wrong with Lonzo. He is soo passive. He needs to get better or he will be not be in the league long. He adds nothing right now. He treats the ball like a hot potato. I hope he gets better.

He looks like a dude that didn't work on his game at all this offseason. I know he was limited with his knee surgery, but still. He looks like straight up garbage this season.

I think Lonzo is struggling to find his spot next to Lebron. He was always going to be the one to have the most trouble with that.

As I posted on the main board...Lonzo and Lebron seem to work best when Lonzo is running the offense because he's a great passer and Lebron is a great scorer. They have made some pretty amazing plays together.

They struggle when Lebron is running the offense because Lonzo isn't a great scorer. So he ends up standing on the perimeter watching and just moving the ball. He needs to be more aggressive.

I read yesterday that while Rondo is out, they are going to play Lonzo with the 2nd unit to stabilize that group on offense. Hopefully, that will help him.

If Lonzo gets better at being a scorer, then the offense will be that further ahead because of the flexibility it creates having two passers/scorers on the court together or separate. There will be no noticeable decrement in power and offensive performance as well. Just more weapons to bring to the table.

I dont know. He seems to be missing the agressive gene. He better get it or he will not be in league long. When he is on the court , you only have 4 possible scores. A guard has to be able to make them pay if left open. Not shooting Airballs.

Lonzo Ball was a bad pick. If you can't shoot, and you are not a 7 footer and you can't rebound you don't belong in the NBA. He has had plenty of time to get his shot and he has not so I'm guessing he won't.

LeBron has two of LAL’s first three buckets to allow an early 6-4 lead as things get going in his return to Cleveland.
