Lakers 2021-2022 season thread

[Retroram52]

James with another lay-up and the lead is 8.

 

[Retroram52]

What on earth was that shot by Bazemore?

 

[Retroram52]

At the 2:30 mark we are up by 8.

 

[Retroram52]

Finally. Bradley sits and Anthony is in.

 

[Retroram52]

1:35 left and the Lakers lead by 8.

 

[Retroram52]

And just like that, the Lakers miss defending the Rockets three-point shooter and they cut the lead to 5.

Lakers are home Thursday when OKC comes to town. The Lakers owe these guys an embarrassment!

 

[Retroram52]

45 seconds left and the Lakers are back up by 7 points.

 

[Retroram52]

Typical Lakers. Miss shots, don't defend the perimeter, and the Rockets close to within 1 point with 8 seconds left.

 

[Retroram52]

Monk makes 1 of 2 free throws and it is a 2-point game with 6.6 seconds left.

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers win the fourth quarter and the second half. They escape with a win as the Rockets miss their last shot. 119-117 final score.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Terrible game. Lakers almost didn't deserve the win. But sometimes you have to get some ugly wins in too.

 

[Retroram52]

We owe these dudes from OKC a complete embarrassment!

 

[Retroram52]

Looks like James is out tonight. No word on why.

 

[Retroram52]

Davis starts at PF while Jordon is the Center. Bazemore, Westbrook, and Bradley are the back court and the Lakers already have two quick baskets.

 

[Retroram52]

Bradley hits an early shot and the Lakers are up 8-0.

 

[Retroram52]

OKC comes out shooting the the threes and the Lakers perimeter defense was the downfall for the Lakers in OKC.

 

[Retroram52]

TOs and not defending the perimeter three shooter has the Lakers in trouble already.

 

[Retroram52]

Bazemore and Jordon have not scored yet.

 

[Retroram52]

Vogel calls a timeout and the Lakers lead by 6, 14-8.
