Los Angeles Lakers 2019-2020 Season Thread

Most seem to think that Iggy to the Lakers is a foregone conclusion. But I'm sure the Grizzlies want to see if they can make a trade and get something for him rather than just buy him out.

We could use him. I hate to say it, but Rondo will help the second unit.

Nice win here in Phoenix against a feisty Suns club. We pulled it out at the end with Kyle Kuzma having a great night. Kuzma hit some threes late to help the Lakers pull away. It is great to be a Lakers fan again.

 

[tomodach10]

That was an awesome game last night by both teams.

The Lakers were killing me with their free throw shooting last night.

11-21

If they just shot 16-21 (76%), they win that game going away.

Was a fun game too watch though.

The Suns are a tough out. Not sure I'd want to see them in the playoffs. I don't think they can beat any of the top teams in the West 4 of 7, but they could extend a series farther than a team would like.

I agree TJF12. How can guys like LeBron James and Danny Green who both have won NBA championships miss FTs and lots of them? The Lakers continually find ways to shoot themselves in the foot when they could easily dominate and win it all. It must be in the water in LA. The Rams and Chargers are doing the same sort of insanity.

The Lakers head home tonight , for their first back-to-back game and they start a mini home-stand as well. The W's come into LA, 2-9 and the Lakers are coming off the Suns win last evening. We shall see how the Lakers roster responds to this NBA regular event of back-to-backers.

Lakers up by 13-14 nearly at the half without AD.

 

[Retroram52]

Halftime. Lakers lead by 12. McGee and Howard are playing great.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead over the W's has ballooned to 20 in the third.

 

[Retroram52]

And we finish-off the W's with a 26-point dominant win. Onward we go at 9-2.

Lakers' Bradley has hairline fracture in right leg

He is having such a good year.

 

[trojanfan12]

Well, that was a little too close. lol

When was the last time we were 10-2?

It sure is nice. Injuries are the only thing that can stop this team.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea it sure is sweet to see the Lakers at 10-2 and Atlanta is coming to town tomorrow night. Tough loss about Avery but I think Quinn abd Caruso will step-up and we should not see too much of a deficit. Bring on Boston!

 

[Retroram52]

We whip the Hawk's ass with a 21-point schkacking! We now lead the league with the best record as Boston lost to Sacramento. We are 11-2 and onward we go.

 

[tomodach10]

This was a strange game, we had a 29 point lead cut to 12 a few different times, but still blew them out lol.

To be fair, they're missing a couple of important players.

Their game against the Clippers was similar to last night. They were only down 12 at halftime and, if memory serves, cut it to under 10 early in the 3rd quarter.

Then the roof fell in on them and they ended up getting outscored by 37 in the 2nd half. Ouch.

When I saw the score, the first thing I thought was the Clippers had Khawii as well, but they beat them like that without him LOL

Lakers back on top where they belong

We have a squad, gentlemen....
