    Two 4-min shifts per quarter = 32 min with plenty of rest between each shift.

    Gonna need to ramp up the min/shift by the play in though.

    Washed King tonight.. Was better in the 2nd half. Hopefully he finds his legs soon cause AD's ankle is gonna be sore for awhile.

    Decoy mode activated. It was a balanced game with 18-10-6, but we need better if we're going anywhere.

    haven't watched the game yet, but I would think that's what I would expect from him the next couple of years stats wise. Less offense, more cog in the machine. Moments of greatness followed by watching a high mileage 40 year old.

    Lebron is still working himself back. Good news is we are good enough for him to have time to do that. He was out a pretty good while. Older Lebron takes more time to get back in full stride. He probably could have done more if we needed more. Defense stepped up second half and AD destroyed the wolves. Solid win.

    He was cold as ice in the first half and had some regrettable turnovers. But he got better in the second half and was good enough to get it done. He's definitely working himself back into it. He was out a month.

    You know we have a deep squad when LeBron misses this many shots and we still win.
    I’m not worried because this team has found something.

    Yes! Think when James gets back to his efficient self and running smoothly on all cylinders again. So many offensive weapons to go with the now reconstructed and great defense with our deep squad.

    I thought he tried on defense, which was something

    Lebron even when he sucks contributed a lot tonight: the offensive rebounding issue has suddenly gone away for the Lakers, old man James still is smart defender so the defensive issues against big tweener forwards seems to have gone away.

    Oh, he’s going to step up his D in the playoffs, for sure.

    Hard to believe it was just a three months ago that he averaged nearly 35 PPG for an entire month. This team is unbeatable if we get that Lebron + last night's AD + this new and improved supporting cast.

    night and day from earlier in the season, where all his focus was on what his teammates couldn't do.

    comments on chemistry were interesting. maybe it's my bias, but he didn't sound like someone who thought we were going to make noise this year in the playoffs, but rather that we were laying groundwork for next year and that competing in the playoffs is part of that.
