The Los Angeles Lakers 2023-2024 NBA season

[DJ Fieri]

A win is a win.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The starting 5 is one of the better ones in the League....as long as Hach shows up.

Playing pretty well.

 

[DJ Fieri]

James, Russell and Reaves really get the ball moving around.

"LOS ANGELES -- Victor Wembanyama took questions at the podium sitting in front of a San Antonio Spurs banner and was told about the statistical feat he had just pulled off Friday night against the Los Angeles Lakers

Wembanyama joined Jamaal Tinsley (2001) as the only NBA rookies to have a 5x5 game -- posting at least 5 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks in a game -- and became just the second player to have 5 blocks and 5 steals in consecutive games, joining Michael Jordan.

Wembanyama paused to consider Jordan's feat and then asked, "I wonder if he did it in wins."

Wemby's rare 5x5 night causes 'havoc' for Lakers

Victor Wembanyama became just the 15th player in NBA history to achieve a 5x5 game, posting 27 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists, 5 blocks and 5 steals against the Lakers.

This guy is going to be a problem. And IMO win ROY.

 

[DJ Fieri]

We need to get it going.

This is unacceptable.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The defense continues to suck ass.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Lakers have the deficit down to just 9.

 

[DJ Fieri]

O'Neale was on fire in the first half.

 

[DJ Fieri]

AD and Reaves need to get their shit together.

James, Russell and Hach are playing well.....

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Lakers have the deficit down to just 5.

 

[DJ Fieri]

AD!!!

 

[DJ Fieri]

5th straight game Bron, AD and Russell have all scored at least 20 points. Longest streak in Lakers history.

Liked DRuss with the big block in Q4 after Reaves got blocked. Nice hustle but we still lost by 10. You are correct DJ. We had better get it straight because we play top teams in the next four games.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree with you DJ. They should remove Ham and hire Phil Handy who would improve this team immensely!

O'Neale was on fire in the first half.

Not hard to be when you're practically shooting alone in the gym.

Ham is a real problem.

Ham is a real problem.

I know.

Been saying that for months along with Wild Turkey in the NBA forum.

It's bad enough that the Lakers are missing most of their perimeter defenders, but they are just leaving these guys wide open anyway, either by scheme or confusion. So frustrating...

 

[DJ Fieri]

I don't know about paying Bron 3 years and 180 mill....

That's 120 mill of the cap towards Bron and AD.

 

[DJ Fieri]

We won't be able to find quality role players....
