    This .. Lakers feast on smaller teams but struggle against big teams ... Denver is bigger and stronger than us , this is why we can't beat them

    when he missed that feed from lebron, i think lebron quit, tbh. and to be fair, that one wasn't "easy". it was just one someone on denver would have made.

    i was saying this in the other thread. if he has another shaky stretch, i think it's time to give spencer and gabe more of the minutes, as dlo's confidence is shot out there.

    :ADGlance:



    I thought he started out engaged defensively but the longer the offense struggled we got things like this...



    Can't happen.

    second play wasn't great, but man...what if one of our non-stars hit that shot? that's their 4th/5th option running off a curl handoff and burying it. dlo and reaves were missing open catch and shoot attempts.

    Sucks. That was a golden opportunity to steal a game, and he came up absolutely empty in the second half.

    That the thing he did have good looks. The s*** pull up jumper contested was bad decision making. But if he can't hit shots gets defender in there.

    Frustrating as if he just makeable shots Lakers won. This was different then last year where he looked like out of place.

    i mean, 3 or 4 of those threes rattled/rolled out. same with all but one of AD's, iirc. we had some bad luck on those throughout.

    of course, denver's guys didn't hit the rim.

    I’m expecting Dlo and Reaves to bounce back once again. Need much more from Rui too.

    This is what the Bubble Lakers did; it was a third star by committee including KCP, Rondo, Kuzma, Caruso. Somebody would get hot.

    Problem for this team is that team all could defend so you could sort of what it out. DLo needs to hit: trick or treat high floor low ceiling.

    I think you got to give him another shot with those open looks. It's tough to swallow but at least he got looks this game last series he was completely muzzled. If he doesn't have it going into the second half a lot more Spencw
