The Los Angeles Lakers 2022-2023 Season Thread

[Retroram52]

Our TOs are still too high, but our FT shooting is way above last year by nearly everyone.

 

[Retroram52]

Much better Third Quarter than we played in along time. We are only down by three.

 

[Retroram52]

We can still win this one. Our D has played great and we are only 6 down with 7 minutes left.

 

[Retroram52]

Five point lead with 4:18 left.

 

[Retroram52]

We are fading in the Fourth Quarter.

 

[Retroram52]

Westbrook is having a very good night. Have not seen this in a long time.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead has ballooned to 9.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead is 8 with 20 seconds left. Just didn't get it done but lots of improved areas of play. Our TOs are just way too high. Westbrook coming off the bench is turning out to be a good idea!

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

Even Westbrook gets the all star calls against the wolves.

 

[Retroram52]

We didn't have it down the stretch and lost by 9. Much improvement and Westbrook had a very good night.

Brother, there needs to be change. Davis is Perma injured, LeBron is feeling the hand of father time. We are finite, carbon based organisms. We will degrade over time, it's just physics. The Lakers can not do anything with that line up.

 

[Retroram52]

You are spot on Picklerick. They are going to have to do something or it will be a very long year!

 

[Jordan23]

Lakers are a joke

 

[Retroram52]

Yes they are Jordon23. Some things have caught-up with them!

It is going to be a long year no matter what. What they decide to do with some of these guys that still have very real trade value is what will determine the future.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree!

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

I agree!

As a wolves fan, I was so excited every time they shot a three. It didn't even matter if they made it, they will make some sure, but if you let the Lakers roster shoot three's, you are gonna win.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea I hear ya. The Wolves are going to go places this year, I hope it is huge for ya!

We are too careless with the ball and we go hero ball way to easy. We will win about 50-55 wins and bow out against a really good inside-out team. I am not a fan of the gobert trade as I believe we are not one defensive center away from a championship, but it is what it is.

 

[Retroram52]

That is true. Ya need another piece to take the pressure off of Gobert.
