Game Debrief: What Went Right And What Went Wrong?

cannot imagine what the locker room is feeling like right now!?

 

Agreed. I understand why the focus is on the stars especially with LeBron getting paid so much but our supporting cast is awful and has been that way for years if we’re being honest. Always glaring holes in multiple areas.

 

Getting their summer vacation plans ready.

 

It's a bit strange that JJ is playing lineups with one 1 of the big 3 - whether it was luke or lebron last night those units got pasted. Should be way to keep 2 mostly on the floor togheter at all times since AR's minutes restrictions is gone

 

Well we definitely needed that.

 

GS is a sh***y team. We should be all these crappy teams.

 

Nice to get back to winning

Lakers win the 3rd and 4th

Shot 46% from the 3 line

Role players

Jake 18 pts 5 reb 3 ast 1 stl

LK 16 pts 3 reb 3 ast 1 stl

 

was nice to see a team cold against us for once. feel like every single night the opposition is on fire, even beyond our bad defense.

sucks we wasted a good shooting night (lebron was hitting threes!) against the curry-less warriors. we have just a shred of shotmaking, and we're on a three-game win streak right now.

anyway, hard to gauge anything from a game like that, as i don't think we actually looked that great. we just made shots and they missed.

ayton really frustrated me throughout. opened the game not getting back on defense and did it several more times. if you'd never seen any of them before, you'd be certain that hayes and kleber were the rotation centers and ayton was the third-stringer. like, how is kleber the more intimidating shot blocker at his age?

anyway, i'm not supposed to fussing after a blowout win, so...

kennard still looking like a keeper. just hate that he's another non-defender. still, though, having him instead of gabe (who's also become a non-defender despite reputation) is just a breath of fresh air.

bufkin looks like an nba player to me. it was garbage time, but he basically got wherever he wanted on the floor, and his shot looks good (even if he bricked his one three, lol).

 

I agree that LK is a keeper

Getting rid of Gabe was icing on the top

 

Don't mean s*** to me in a year that's a waste. I'm just hear evaluating players and fit moving forward. This win doesn't mean s*** in the big picture.

But if it makes you happy beating a team we're supposed to beat, cheer on, my friend.
