Real deal based on what? They're 0-3 and can't guard anyone.

And don't give me the BS about being competitive. Just about every team in the league is competitive.

They haven't proven anything obviously at 0-3, but there's also zero reason to e worried at this point.

3 games into a season with a new roster, 3 competitive 48min games against 3 top10 teams.

Yeah that was a pretty dumb statement.

I wouldn't deny that the Lakers could become good, but they haven't proven to be the "real deal" so far.

If this team is them sucking, Im happy asf

Totally agree with most of this but i don't think Portland and San Antonio are top 10 teams this year

 

[Inimical]

I mean just starting out, so many new players, them trying out the offense, they are relying on skill alone.

Did you see some of those plays?

Wholly shit when they get it down.

Im so happy

Spurs aren't a top 10 team unless you're only counting the West.

Neither is Portland

I think they're closer to the top 10 but probably just outside.

 

[Kold]

Twitter blowing up with laker/Kobe fans trolling Lebron fans for the end of the game. We are one weird family, and this is gonna be a strange/funny season.

@ChiefsLakers67 you got something to say about all of this?

Yep Portland is probably between 11-14. Spurs will struggle to make the playoffs if Minny doesn't trade Butlet

Yeah you're right.

Still, minus Rondo and Ingram, with the Aldridge matchup, don't see how Lakers could see this game as anything but encouraging.

It's be different if it was game 38... But it's game 3.

 

[Inimical]

Kuzma is in his second year and had 37 points, Hart came off the bench in his second year and had 20 points ten rebounds.


I mean, WCF baby

Not a great team, and maybe not even a playoff team, but I like what I saw tonight besides the obvious terrible defense from both teams. Spurs have a little bit of firepower in Belinelli, Forbes, Mills (streaky) and Gay outside of Aldridge and DeRozan. Can't wait to see what Lonnie and Derrick White do for the team when they return, especially since Derrick can really shoot it.

Anyone else catch LeBron calling a timeout at the end of regulation when they clearly didn't have any? Technical foul please?
