James missed two FTs right before the half. Geez, what is with him and missing FTs?

That idiot Suns owner blocked the Ariza trade according to this article. There are so many people who hate the Lakers. Tough!!

He morphed into Shaq when he signed with the Lakers.

With James with 24 points and McGee with 19, we have taken control of this game with a 29-point lead.

About to improve to 18-11.

 

[Retroram52]

End of the third and we are up by 30. Lonzo Ball WILL have an opportunity to get the 2 assists and 3 rebounds he needs for a triple double.

 

[Retroram52]

James has another. Surprisingly, this is James second triple dub.

 

[Retroram52]

Zubac is in for the fourth and he scores 4 quick points.

 

[Retroram52]

MykHailiuk and many of the seconds get to play the fourth. Smart moves by Luke. Tomorrow is another game.

 

[Retroram52]

The last time teammates had triple doubles in the same game was April 7, 2007 (Jason Kidd and Vince Carter). James and hopefully Ball will have that today.

 

[Retroram52]

Zubac made the layup, assisted by Svi Mykhailiuk and this is fast becoming a duo that works well together.

 

[Retroram52]

There is that sharp-shooting by Mykhailiuk has he nails the three.

 

[Retroram52]

Wow, it has been awhile for Lakers teammates. January 22, 1982 was the last time two Lakers had a triple double in the same game. Magic and Kareem.

 

[Retroram52]

Mykhailiuk missing FTs. I think missing FTs is in the LA water or something.

 

[Retroram52]

Ball get 10 rebounds and that should do it!

 

[Retroram52]

And Ball with the emphatic dunk. This team is really beginning to click, I think.

 

[Retroram52]

Kuzma with the block. Excellent D.

 

[Retroram52]

With that rebound, Lonzo Ball has notched the triple-double. He and LeBron James are the second Lakers teammates to both have triple dubs in the same game.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead is still 30 and above with 5 and half left in this game.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice. Lance Stephenson made jump shot, assisted by Svi Mykhailiuk.
