Los Angeles Lakers 2019-2020 Season Thread

[True Lakers Fan]

For now I am just enjoying the Lakers season for the winning, but I do believe the Lakers have a deeper bench then the Clippers and I believe that LeBron + Davis combo is a little better than The Leonard + George combo. Nothing is guaranteed though

Oh we kicked the Blazers ass! LeBron and AD were unstoppable and so was Kuzma. Danny Green, another excellent deep-ball shooting night along with KCP, AD, LeBron, Caruso, and Rondo. Man, we have become a deadly three-point shooting team and we are even deadlier on the defensive front. My, what a team Pelinka has assembled!!

And the Clippers get killed. What a great night!!

I was laughing at Portland, they thought that was an automatic win and they got flattened by a steamroller

Interestingly, we now rank third best in DEFENSE. Wow. What a team we have right now.

Just think about this. We had 28 wins in Feb last year and 2 years ago we had 20 wins in feb. I think we are making progress. We have 20 wins already!!

Lonzo today. 27 min. 0-7 from 3. 1-9 shooting, 2 points. He is never going to be an all--star.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep, Tomodach. I believe the Lakers knew this along with the fact that Hart and Ingram are going anywhere either.

Huh?

Ingram is playing at a near all star level. He's never going to be a #1 and lead a team to title...but I think he can be a real good #2 option and a devastating #3.

Hart is who he always was going to be, a dependable role player. He's like a D-Fish. He's not going to win any titles for you...but you have to have guys like him to win.

Davis dropped half a hundred tonight

Davis dropped half a hundred tonight

Yeah he did. In only his 16th game as a Laker too. If I saw the graphic on AccessSportsnet Lakers, that's the fewest games before a 50 point game in team history.

What a turn around, The Lake show is back!

We sure dodged a bullet by trading him

Edit: I guess I didn't see the graphic right. Apparently it was 23 games and, I believe only 3rd fastest.

Dude sucks...can't believe we gave up all of that young talent for this slacker.

lol

Nice all-star game type (No or little D) win at home against Minnesota Sunday night. We are playing very well on both ends of the court. Our transition D needs improvement and shot selection in the backcourt could improve but when you are consistently scoring above 105-110 per game, we are doing many things right.

Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma out with sprained ankle

This could become an issue. He has bad luck with injuries so far in his career.

Man, I did NOT see this coming together THIS fast. What a run so far.....the only thing i think we need is one more tall, wing defender on this team. Overall, I gotta give it up to Rob Pelinka. Made Chicken salad, after Kawhi played us, and made some great bargain pickups

Could Iggi be gotten later?

Also the best part about our front office, is quiet and no drama. Magic caused to much drama for me.

Iggy is too old. He looked washed last year. If they need another player, they'd be better off waiting until February to see who hits the buyout market
