Let's just get to halftime and regroup.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Ball and KCP both have 11 points to lead the Lakers.












Hardaway has a game-high 16 points.

KCP with another 3 to up his total to 14 points.....might be improving his trade value.

We don't have our two best players. It's not like the rest of the roster is full of stars. It's just a bunch of hohum players and you can lose to anybody when you're trotting that out. Sucks too because right now with the schedule being soft, we really need to be picking up wins. I got so depressed when I saw Kuzma was out tonight and James is gonna miss at least 3 more games.

I am getting tired of Walton coached teams losing 4th quarter leads. That is like 10 games this year already. I know we dont have two best players, but even when we did, this is a Walton coached pattern.

Something afoul is up with this team as they can't seem to finish games. Tomodach has already mentioned the number of games this year we have blown in the fourth and to think we let a 9-29 team come into Staples center and make us struggle with them. Granted, we are missing some players but so has other teams. That is no excuse. We simply do not want to play D in the fourth. This is why teams like the Thunder can come in and poke blatant fun at the Lakers because they no they go home early. We barely hang-on to the eighth spot in the west but this pattern is simply not good. This is bullshit and maybe Magic needs to have another shouting match with Luke because I think he has lost this team.

I disagree. This is a young team and young teams do this. Especially when 2 of the veterans they are counting on to help them through these situations are out.

You are making excuses. Come on!! they should have beaten the knicks!! And no excuse to blown out like they were today. Not competative from the first tap. That is coaching!!
