Lakers 2021-2022 season thread

[Retroram52]

The lead is now 24 as the third Quarter winds down.

 

[Retroram52]

The Lakers are up by 21 with three quarters in the books. If they keep doing what they have been, we should be good for a win. The D is beginning to be consistent which is a good thing.

 

[Retroram52]

Anthony is higher scorer for the Lakers as the Fourth gets underway.

 

[Retroram52]

Westbrook needs 4 Rebounds and 2 Assists to take another triple-W.

 

[Retroram52]

Anthony buries another three has he now has 24 points.

 

[Retroram52]

James is still ofer from the three-point arc.

 

[Retroram52]

Again, the D isn't rotating over fast enough to cover the open deep-ball shooter and the Rockets nail another three.

 

[Retroram52]

The Rockets have trimmed the lead down to 15 as the Lakers look lazy again.

 

[Retroram52]

Monk and AD miss shots coming out of the break. Just is amazing to watch these guys piss-away opportunity baskets like that.

 

[Retroram52]

Monk is just ofer tonight. What the hell is even doing out there?

 

[Retroram52]

The Lead is down to 11 with just under 4 minutes left. The Lakers are still kinda just being lazy and if they are not careful, we are going to see a repeat of OKC and the Lakers will have learned nothing from that mess!

 

[Retroram52]

Man the FG shooting tonight has been bad. Westbrook is 9-21, James is 6-18, Monk is ofer, Bazemore is 3-7, and Davis is 6-15.

 

[Retroram52]

36 seconds left and the Lakers lead by 10.

 

[Retroram52]

Monk just stunk it-up tonight. Flat-out Ofer. We survived yet another mini-collapse being-up by 25 and winning by 10. This pattern is going to have to change and the Lakers took some steps tonight to begin that process.

 

[Retroram52]

Onward we go to another home game against these same Rockets on Tuesday.

This article just about sums it all up.

Anthony has indeed been putting staggering offensive numbers even though he is somewhat of a defensive liability. I suppose is offensive prowess is over-shadowing any defensive weakness he may have. Damn good signing so far.

Game Two against the Rockets. Looks like both teams come out firing away.

 

[Retroram52]

Seven minutes into the game and Bradley hasn't done a thing.

Nice dunk by Jordon!
