The Los Angeles Lakers 2024-2025 NBA Season

[Retroram52]

Didn't quite get it done here in Phoenix. First loss of the season and this team needs to play better in away games. Close though.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Well, we weren't going 82-0....

LOL.

Yeah, Lebron was off and nobody really stepped up to cover for him.

 

[Retroram52]

True, but if Redick is going to be compared to Pat Riley, he needs to start the season like 6-0, 8-0.

 

[Retroram52]

Doesn't say much for Hood-Schifino that Olivari is a better player and H-S is being assigned to the G-League along with Lewis.

Two young Lakers players have been assigned to the G League

Two promising but struggling Lakers players have been sent down to the G League.

Riley didn't do that in his rookie coaching season

Olivari has a lot more experience. JHS needs minutes to develop (and playing him now with the Lakers will further hurt his trade value if he struggles). Better to send him down and have him hopefully excel.

Hooray! Koloko has finally been cleared!

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers are in Cleveland to take on the undefeated Cavaliers. Hachimura has come-out and stated he was not pleased with the loss of an 18-point advantage over the Suns in that loss in Phoenix. Well, dude, you and your teammates have to play better D ALL GAME LONG!! We shall see what the Lakers do tonight to come away with the win against an undefeated Cavs team.

I believe a lot of that lead was lost with Rui on the bench in foul trouble in the 2nd.

 

[Retroram52]

Perhaps Redick has not figured-out how to win on the road. Another ass-whippin in Cleveland. Deficit was in the 20's. Now, the Redick effect has disappeared and we are presently in a 2-game losing streak. I wonder what will happen in Toronto?

 

[Retroram52]

The Lakers stop the small slide and go to 4 and 2 on the season by beating the hapless Raptors. Not by much mind you and they need to start playing D better.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Blew a 25 point lead in the first half but a road win is a road win.

 

[DJ Fieri]

It's really early but AD playing like the really wants the MVP.

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers are moving on from Hood-Schifino. Removed is Third-Year option and he may be gone by the trade deadline.

Atlanta and Utah are allegedly interested in him.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, DJ, I saw Utah was interested but I guess Atlanta got into the mix. There is also a trade proposal floated by Yahoo Sports that the Bucks have a failed First Round pick in Beauchamp from last year's draft that is sucking bigtime. The proposal is the Lakers and the Bucks should do a draft pick swap. H-S for Beauchamp.

Lakers, Bucks move on from first-round picks Jalen Hood-Schifino, MarJon Beauchamp

The teams refused to pick up the team options on the two former first-round picks, they will become free agents next season.

Nah, Utah trade could be for Kessler, with a pick or two of course. Maybe could be expanded to include DLo and Sexton or Clarkson?

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers at Detroit today. Hopefully, another win in the mix.

Another loss :/
