    - Switch another got damn screen. FFS why don't you just match up a smaller player on Barnes so you save them the trouble of having to run a s***ty rub screen to get what they want.
    - Leave another shooter wide open please, no really it didn't work the first 10 times, try another 10
    - Luke will be scrubbin' Carlisle's jock again tonight, zero adjustments made to the same thing being ran all game

    It wouldn't kill them to you know, fight over a damn screen every once in awhile

    Lakers got beat in virtually every statistical category this game. But one thing irks me: any reason when the team is struggling to grab rebounds why Luke doesn't insert Mozgov to help with that? I know he likes to go small but when they're getting killed on the boards, it's hurting them even more. He played what, ten minutes? That's far too few in my book especially for the money he's making. But hey I'm not the coach so.... Oh and at some some point they'll start defending the three right?

    Yeah you're right. I'm just looking at it from the perspective of hey, you got 6'9 or shorter guys battling a 7 footer and high leapers for rebounds. Maybe throw in a 7 footer of your own,even if he doesn't get the rebound he could at least put a big body on someone, give your guys a fighting chance. Increase your odds just a bit. But hey, they were sucking at everything else defensively, probably wouldn't help anyway.

    The Buss kids , with some help from David Stern , have turned the Los Angeles Lakers to the Minnesota Timberwolves/Sacramento Kings of this league .

    Get used to it ...

    That was tough to watch.

    Defense is just non-existent right now. So many wide open looks. Just ugh.

    Ya the Lakers are back to their usual self....tanking games away against the worst road team in the league is pretty embarassing.

    Its time to emotionally disconnect from the 2016-2017 Lakers. They ain't havin' it. The fluke start got many fooled here.

    Yea pretty much. I mean I had them pegged at 35 wins, which I thought was pretty realistic, but now it looks more like 25 wins.

    i honestly can't take another season of tanking

    the lack of commitment to defense from this organization is an absolute joke. i thought maybe we'd start to see small changes under luke but it's just as bad as its been the past few seasons

    ^I don't think Luke is the problem. I have said many times but this team doesn't have good defenders that are D first and take pride on shutting down their oposing player. If their shot is off they become disengaged on both ends.

    If in 2019 the Lakers still produce (and need) high first round picks, they must to be sold to a new ownership because of their inaptitude.
