Game Debrief: What Went Right And What Went Wrong?

Lakers on a away-home BTB get Rui, Luka, Ayton, and Jaxson back and it made a difference, beat TOR 110-93.

Luka and Ayton: 25; Lebron 24. Ayton was 10-10 from the field and 5 of 6 from the line.

2nd straight game where Jake can't throw a pea in the ocean: 1 for 5 in 19 mins, 0-4 from deep; against POR he went 0-2 in 28 mins. I'm still high on him, though.

TOR, who started off the season looking like one of the surprising good teams, are 9-12 since Dec began. What's wrong with them?

Play of the game for me: in the 4th Q, Raptors tryna get a good look, ball gets knocked out-of-bounds, but one of their own guys saves it, and tries to hit someone at the arc, but Vando picks it off, one man to beat, Vando uses his body to make it look like he's going right, totally fools the defender, goes left and jams it.

Drew Timme got 16 mins, which makes me think something's up with this guy. Will he get moved before the deadline? Is there some team that collects Zags guys?

 

Hey we won

DA 10-10 25 pts 13 reb

Jake 2 pts

Rui 21 minutes and 0 reb

 

I really like how TOR plays: third in team assists and the fifth best defensive team in the NBA.
Great to see our team play with a sense of urgency again.

 

Definitely a nice win for us. We needed it to say the least.
