Lakers 2021-2022 season thread

[Retroram52]

Monk is for THT and the lead is 9.

 

[Retroram52]

No D on the three-shooters and the lead is now 12.

 

[Retroram52]

Can't be missing shots with under 5 to go if the Lakers want any hope of winning this one.

 

[Retroram52]

Lead is still 12 at the timeout.

 

[Retroram52]

Lead is 10 but the Lakers continue to miss shots. Ain't going anywhere when you are missing shots down the stretch.

 

[Retroram52]

Game over. Lakers lose another one. Onward to Indy tomorrow night for the last of the road trip.

 

[Retroram52]

Westbrook has 31 as the Lakers battle back to within five but I am fairly certain they'll lose this one as N.Y takes a timeout.

 

[Retroram52]

The triple double machine has another one tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

Lead is 6 with 35 seconds left.

 

[Retroram52]

Game over, Lakers lose.

 

[DJ Fieri]

We gotta beat Indy!!!!

 

[Retroram52]

I am not sure that is a probability DJ. This team is stuck in mediocrity and I suspect until the Lakers (FO and ownership) step in and make some serious changes to their approach and roster, the Lakers will finish outside the possibility of a post-season. They are presently 9th in the Western Conference and if they continue this steadfast mediocrity, they'll soon join positions 11-15 the rest of the way.

 

[Retroram52]

This is an 8 and 11 team and the Lakers are starting-out the same way they have in the last three games. Slow to get things going and they are behind already.

 

[Retroram52]

THT has got a basket. I hope we will see some positives out of this guy tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

James is back and doing the same thing everyone else is: Missing shots!

 

[Retroram52]

James has now missed three shots in-a-row and the Pacers go up by 4.

 

[Retroram52]

AD has got some sort of stomach problem. Isn't going to play tonight. This is the second time he has come to the arena sick.

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers are down by 7. Lots of missed shots.

 

[Retroram52]

Lots of missed shots and only one guy playing any D. Another loss is on the way.

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers down by 5 at the end of the First Quarter.
