    Lavar Ball is doing whatever he can to steer Lonzo to the Lakers!

    Speak it into existence my man!

    There's no such thing as a "one-man riot." We refer to those as a "ranting lunatic." :giggle:

    Have no problem with what LaVar Ball is doing. He's raised 3 good ball players, and they all seem like good kids. He's also been there pushing his kids to be their very best while having extreme confidence in them.

    Best tanking game Lakers have played so far. Tough to win though when going against two of the better closers in the game.

    Not a lot to be mad about with this game, they played great for 3~3.5 quarters against the reigning champ with their big 3 actually playing.

    Nice game overall despite the loss. I could nitpick a few things but the bottom line was that Kyrie and Lebron were just too much down the stretch. We played hard and Russell was able to really put in a good performance.

    Still speculative that Ball with a Laker but he put on a game turning performance midway through the second half as UCLA pulled away.

    We could have won this actually, but the tank has to continue.

    I haven't seen enough of Ball or Fultz to know who is better...

    My understanding is that Fultz is more athletic and his more of a scorer while Ball is more of a playmaker and probably a better leader. Fultz also has a higher overall ceiling because of his athleticism. Not sure who is better defensively.

    11 more games and we'll already be 25% of the way through the Mozgov and Deng contracts.
