Los Angeles Lakers 2018-2019 Season Thread

[DJ Fieri]

Sweet Lou hits a crazy shot at the halftime buzzer....

 

[Retroram52]

A total lack of effort as we get beat again and will fall to the 7 spot in the west.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

No disrespect to Mecca, but fuck the Clippers...

Lol....

 

[trojanfan12]

He's going to end up being the fall guy after the season IMO. Wish Fizdale hadn't gone to the Knicks.....he would have been perfect.

lol

If the Lakers fire Luke, it would be the stupidest thing they've done since Short Buss signed Mozgov and Deng.

Lakers fans turning on Luke is some bullshit too. He's doing a great job. Does he make mistakes at times...yes, he's a young coach. Even the best coaches in the game make mistakes. Anyone else remember a couple of mistakes by Pop that cost the Spurs a title?

For those who think he should be fired. Who do you think is better and available? Pop? Stevens? Kerr? Spo? Rivers? The list of coaches who are better than Luke isn't very long. The list of coaches who are better than Luke and available is far, far shorter.

Young team, on the second night of a back to back playing without 3 veteran starters and people want to blame the coach.

Or, it was a team on the 2nd night of a back to back missing 3 veteran starters and ran out of gas.

 

[Retroram52]

That too TJF12.

You want unity? Quit leaving the building in the fourth quarter of games home or away. Quit standing around watching LeBron win the game for you. Get better by practicing FTs and three-point shots and make more of both during the game especially in the fourth quarter and get real passionate about playing defense every time you step on the floor.

Should never ever allow a team to score 22 straight points against you!! This team could be looking like the last 2 years , if they dont step up!!. Time to grow up!

 

[Retroram52]

Spot on Tomodach!

 

[Rambunctious]

@Rambunctious, @Kold I could use a good play by play guy so I could just tell stories and be the color guy....

Sorry DJ I missed the game and I'm happy i did. lol Anyway, Retro is the top dog play by play guy.
Right now its all about the Rams for Rambunctious.
But the Lakers need a good coach, not sure Luke will be that guy for a few years so since the Lakers won't fire him because he is family we just have to get used to mediocre basketball until Luke can get it together.

You guys can finally dust of those old greatest show on turf jerseys.

[DJ Fieri]

I have arrived to be the play by play and color commentary guy for the lurkers...

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers and the Queens tee-it-up here in a couple of minutes. We shall see if these young Lakers sans Lebron can return the loss favor to the Queens they gave us a couple of days hence up in Sacramento.

 

[Retroram52]

I'll be here for at least the first half. Not working tonight, DJ.

 

[Retroram52]

Looks like McVale is back tonight. Don't know if that will make a difference or not.

 

[Retroram52]

We are up by three early in the first.

 

[Retroram52]

Tie ballgame at the 5:29 mark in the first.

 

[Retroram52]

Everyone is in the scoring column except Ball. He needs to get on the board soon.

 

[Retroram52]

We came one-point shy of having a 2-0 lead on the season series with the Queens.
