Lakers 2021-2022 season thread

[DJ Fieri]

Looking to try some Nashville hot chicken soon, probably sometime this week.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, DJ. That option has been mentioned especially as the team begins to figure their defensive problems as well as Vogel gets his rotations more refined and effective.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I would say it's over but......OKC so no.

 

[Retroram52]

That sounds splendiferous! I already scarfed down leftover pizza.

 

[Retroram52]

The bulge is up to 19. The key will be to see how the Lakers respond coming-out in the second half and then we will know if they learned anything from that OKC abortion.

 

[Retroram52]

Awesome three by Westbrook to put us up by 22.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Part of me can't wait till I start looking for a job in a few months.....

Instacart'ing and Door Dash'ing isn't my thing......even if it's profitable.

 

[Retroram52]

Alot of other players are in double digits tonight not named AD or LBJ.

 

[Retroram52]

Stay away from both of those two companies. They are a rip-off IMO and when you figure in car costs to you, you are working for about 7-8 USD per hour. Check out airports. Denver's airport needs 5000 laborers and only 200 showed-up at a recent job fair. I am thinking of moving back to Denver but have not decided yet.

Ya also have to take into account this mandate bullshit. Both the mask and vaccine are being litigated in higher courts and many places like in Cali demand that you have to one or both to work at a given employment. I am a federal worker driving this bus at the airport and I am on suspension because I refused to wear that stupid mask. So take that into account as you look for work.

 

[Retroram52]

James is ofer from the three-point line and the Rockets are slowly cutting the lead. This looks very similar o OKC. I hope I am wrong but geez here we go.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead is down to 13 and Vogel calls a timeout to nip this crap in the bud. This Lakers team is just its own worst enemy coming out after the break when they have a big lead. They just get lazy, they start missing shots, and they stop playing defense which is weak to begin with.

 

[Retroram52]

Get the ball out of James' hands. That is four missed shots in-a-row.

 

[Retroram52]

Still missing a ton of shots and this looks alot like OKC all over again.

 

[Retroram52]

Two quick makes and the lead is back to 15.

 

[Retroram52]

James is 4-13 for FGs and ofer from the three stripe.

 

[Retroram52]

James and AD teamed-up to stop the bleeding and the lead is back to 17.

 

[Retroram52]

Bradley is 1-4 FGs and 0fer from the three stripe.

 

[Retroram52]

Monk is ofer tonight in both FGs and Three-pointers.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead is now 20. The memory of OKC is fading.
