Los Angeles Lakers 2019-2020 Season Thread

poor defensive effort in second half. We need another 3 and D guy on this team.

Bradley looks like a shell of his former self... kinda sad, in his heyday he was a great mix of athleticism and instincts on defense... a very good 3+D guard.

Looks like injuries have just ravaged his ability.

I see the same thing. Injuries have really hurt him.

He was playing fairly well, not as well as he used to, but good enough for what the Lakers need from him. But then he had the latest injury.

Hopefully, he just needs to get back in game shape.

Big game tomorrow. I will be expecting a win. I hope that James is back on the floor.

Good news thanks

Merry Christmas guys.

We are missing something on this team. Bron with another critcal missed free throw at the end. As great as he is, he will never be considered a clutch player like kobe and others.

We are missing something on this team.

We need either a wing defender or a guy who can shoot 3's that other teams actually fear. A guy like Redick, who can hit 3's even when guarded.

They have guys who can hit the 3. Danny Green, Lebron, AD, KCP, etc. can all hit the 3. But there isn't anyone that teams fear. That allows teams to double off of them.

They also shot waaaay too many 3's yesterday. They lead the league in points in the paint and they shot 45 threes. That makes no sense.

I think because of Lebron's groin, he could not drive to the hoop and settled on three's. This team misses way too many open three point shots. A 3 &D would be great for this team.

I knew this was too good to be true, just when I drag all of my Lakers gear out they go on a losing streak.

 

[DJ]

We're still a very good team....let's not freak out guys.

I told a rams friend of mine, when they had the greatest show on tuff superbowl win, you finally got to dust off those cobwebs on that eric Dickerson Jersey. After that they went downhill for a while. Put that gear back in closet until we make it to the playoffs lol.

Ya just hope it still fits.

You guys will be back next year. Too much talent.

Now we are up to four losses in-a-row. Kawhi continues to get inside of the Lakers head. Now LeBron aggregates his groin injury and has to sit. Now is the time for other players to step-up and play at the level of LeBron of which they are certainly capable. Caruso and Bradley are returning. People like Green, KCP, Quinn, Kuzma and our bench need to get on their horses and play otherwise all this BS talk about not losing two-in-a-row the rest of the season is a lot of fertilizer. It has already happened. So all this talkin' is just a load of shit.

Just glade we started 24-3. We should have not lost 4 in a row. That is ridiculous.

 

[tomodach10]

Much needed win. Kuz is turning the corner and figuring out his role on this team. We really need him as the third scorer.

Meh, maybe not. It's an 82 game season. There are bound to be some peaks and valleys, especially now that we're far enough in that guys are starting to get a little banged up.

Obviously, we don't want any more 4 game losing streaks. But this one didn't really hurt much thanks to the strong start.
