The Los Angeles Lakers 2024-2025 NBA Season

Looks like the Redick hire just may be the elixir the Lakers needed. The players actually like playing for Redick and his approach.

People want to hate on Bron for his politics but he is an American success story.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I guess it's okay if you're white but not if you're black.

 

[Retroram52]

Def not a commonality. I agree it is a def successful American story but I think you know this DJ, it is not the norm by a long shot. Is it a possibility in America? Absolutely!! Is it a commonality? Hardly. Far too many Blacks in the community as a whole have bought a billed of bullshit that has affected their lives in ways that are absolutely unimaginable and certainly horrific to say the least. Congrats to LeBron James for his perseverance against incredible odds but things are changing in that same Black community that can make this remote possibility a more common one for them and all of us for that matter!!

Let's hope this is the focus and the result is a tenacious defense that continues all season and well into the Post Season.

JJ Redick says the Lakers' defense is coming along well so far

The Lakers struggled defensively last season, but there are signs they could significantly improve in that area this season.

And this is some bullshit.

Westside Knecht for 3!!!

 

[DJ Fieri]

Knecht again!!!!

 

[Retroram52]

And the honeymoon is suddenly coming to an end as we suck ass in the Second quarter down by 18.

 

[Retroram52]

No All-Star performance by AD either. Back to pedestrian as has been his MO recently of talking a good game but then taking games off. Apparently Redick has not taught them how to play consistent basketball night-in and night-out.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead is now 20. Clearly they didn't come to play tonight. LBJ is sucky tonight as well.

 

[Retroram52]

Western Connect has made some and missed some. He is going to have to get better on a consistent basis.

 

[Retroram52]

Lead is down to 16. Lakers need to get the lead to 10 before the half and then they have a chance.

 

[Retroram52]

AD is the only Laker in dub figures.

 

[Retroram52]

Suddenly the lead is down to 12.

 

[Retroram52]

Three-point shooting percentage is way-up over the Wolves game. 41.7%

 

[Retroram52]

FG percentage is down over the Wolves game is down and the TOs are still decent. We are in this one. The Lakers need to play some serious D soon.

 

[Retroram52]

Lead is back to 13 as the Second Quarter comes to a close.
