Lakers take the win 132-113. These two teams fly to Salt Lake for the second game of a home-and-home Wednesday night.

Tough to get much of a read in this one, not much of a game. More like a scrimmage, as the Jazz were never a threat all night.

With that win, the Lakers have won 6 straight, gone 9-1 in their last ten games, and move into fourth place in the Western Conference.

The Lakers really are playing well and the roster is starting to stabilize. Doncic is fitting-in nicely.

They really should continue to resist the Hornets' attempts to get the trade for Williams to stick. I don't think the Hornets have a case and I don't suspect the league will demand the Lakers to accept the trade.

It has been rescinded and thus it is null and void. End of story.

It would be shocking to see the league force the trade.

It’s never been done. But neither was a trade vetoed before either, so when it comes to the league and the Lakers, nothing is impossible.

Really good win last night....watched the rest of this on the DVR as I woke up super early.

Beat a bad team but in just 14 minutes Luka played pretty well overall with 14 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists and the whole team contributed.

James had 24 points, 8 assists, and 7 rebounds.

Reaves pitched in with 22 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists.

Hach had 21 points and 6 rebounds.

Goodwin scored 17 off the bench with 8 rebounds and 2 steals.

Hayes had 12 points and 3 steals.

Vincent had 11 points and 4 assists.

It was just 1 game but Reaves may be able to work with the other 2.

A lot of this will depend on JJ coaching like he has all season.

It was always going to work. The whole "No Big" thing is completely overrated. The Bulls won Titles with Uwe Blab and Bill Wennington running around in the post. When you have 2 superstars and another all star level player, all your post needs to do is defend a little and throw down wide open dunks. Your new point guard will average 9 rebounds a game. How many points do that?

Reaves is my main concern working with Bron and Luka.

Hayes has been playing better as of late.
