Los Angeles Lakers 2018-2019 Season Thread

[Retroram52]

Kuzma missed another FT.

 

[Retroram52]

Orlando opens a four point lead with that three. This is what they did in Orlando and we had no answer.

 

[Retroram52]

JaVale McGee has season high 7 blocks, tying the most in his career. We are still down by four as the Magic shooters are coming alive.

 

[Retroram52]

JaVale McGee's career high for blocks in a game is 12 when he was with the Wizards.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead reaches five despite making just 38.7 percent of their shots. OrlandoMagic have a 61-58 lead on Lakers.

 

[Retroram52]

Luke has seen enough.

 

[Retroram52]

Magic have continued their 2nd Q push with a 14-6 start to the 3rd.

 

[Retroram52]

They are going to Vuvecic because we apparently can't guard this guy. The three by Ball was desperately needed.

 

[Retroram52]

Now the lead is 10 because we can't hit shots and we ain't playing D.

 

[Retroram52]

Now the lead is 12 and Luke calls a time-out.

 

[Retroram52]

Much-needed 3-pointer from Lonzo Ball after Lakers had missed 8 straight shots. Ball has 9 points with 9 rebounds and James is missing alot of shots today..

 

[Retroram52]

The Magic have opened the third quarter by outscoring the Lakers 22-9. We need to now make a run of our own.

 

[Retroram52]

Why don't the Lakers go up-tempo, quit settling for jumpshots which they miss more than make, and play some damn D for a change!!

 

[Retroram52]

Nice three by Stephenson gets the lead back to 8.

 

[Retroram52]

Looking for a spark, Luke Walton calls Svi Mykhailiuk’s number with LAL down 73-61 at the 4:41 mark.

 

[Retroram52]

Another three and the Magic or back to 10.

 

[Retroram52]

Vucevic is now scoring at will. We still don't know how to defend this guy.

 

[Retroram52]

Vucevic doing work on the Lakers again with 23 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists. He did this in Orlando as well. Why do we not know how to defend this guy?

 

[Retroram52]

James misses FTs as the lead ballons to 15.

 

[Retroram52]

Now Stephenson is missing shots along with everyone else.
