    Letting Stauskus or whoever the hell his name is get a career night. Truth be told kind of expected this to be a loss. They better damn well win the next one though.

    I miss Randle. Badly.

    Lakers will miss him even worse.

    Doesn't matter with this Stauskas crap. CJ was off. It balances out. It's our side that we didn't take care off. Interior D and half-court O. And eliminating Kuz by playing him at C.

    f*** Puke Walton.

    1. Shooting - we will need Svi and Wear sooner than we think; the shooting is that bad.

    2. Center - We need another big, period.

    3. Luke - he was bad tonight.

    Shooting!! F*** me!

    We made 11 jump shots. 5 were when the game was mostly out of reach. We made 6 freaking non layups/dunks outside of the last few minutes when we were already down double digits.

    Small ball center ain't gonna work. Sorry, not gonna be patient on this one. I'd be shocked if it works. Play Zu as bad as he's been.

    Zu must really be unimpressive still in practice to not be trusted for any minutes when we are a skinny and soft team with Randle and Brook gone. In his 3rd year. Can't wait for Moe to get back. His all around game and his energy and good size.

    Expected the sloppy play we saw but still hated it.

    We can’t shoot.

    We definitely need another big guy. Don’t see the small line up working.

    Bracing myself for several weeks if not s few months of Luke testing different line ups.

    Kuz is not a center, he’s not, please stop. Poor guy looks lost, out of place, outmatched, struggling to guard even the likes of Collins. He’s not even really a PF, so how can he be a C? Man we miss a dude that is a bully on the inside like Randle right now, and we sure could use Lopez instead of Beasley who played 2 minutes tonight. Brilliant choice there. If being the anti-Warriors means not being able to shoot for s***, well mission accomplished.

    Thats less because of Dame's greatness and more because of our incompetence.

    Shooting is going to be the thing everybody looks at, but it was a 2 point game heading into the 4th quarter where we made three 3s in the final 2 minutes of the 3rd quarter.

    And being 0-15 before Josh hit our first 3, we were down 82-83 at that point. So jumpshooting is going to have to come at some point, but lets not act like that destroyed our chances tonight. We were in the game shooting 0-15 from deep...went 7-15 in the final 14 minutes of the game and lost by 9.

    What did us in is our 3 point defense in the final quarter (we blocked 2 attempts, but they went 5-8 on uncontested attempts)...wasted opportunities from turnovers (Bron had 6 sheesh)....giving up offensive rebounds (we were outrebounded by 8 for the game and of those 6 were offensive boards...we had 93 shot attempts, they had 100).

    Its too early to panic and seriously, we coulda had this game (with 8 minutes to go it was 100-101 for f*** sakes all while they shot a ridic 27-29 from the charity stripe)...so lets all calm the f*** down and clean this s*** up.

    Oh yeah, my WMC is the overreaction fans/media will have from this game. Lets quiet everybody the f*** up on Sat night.

    McGee is playing the best ball of his career, but we need another big. ASAP. Also, 3-pt shooting was really bad.

    Zach Collins and nik stauskas dominated the lakers. This doesn't happen to good teams.
