Let's get this party started....sleep is overrated! Lakers GDT

Kg brings an edge to this team it's lacked for years. I have no problem with a bit of chippiness. U guys mustve just hated 80s basketball as a whole . Every game was that way.

Not even close. It was hardnosed, but not trashy.

Rubio and Kat are our best players so far. Wig needs to wake up. He should take clarkson /russel to the post everytime down.

I dont think lavine/martin/bazz is going to work. All 3 are at their best scoring the ball. Lavine needs to be allowed to look for his own shot and not try to set up martin and bazz.

I hope pek can come back and stay healthy. We need him badly. We are getting push around and with a healthy pek playing 20mins a game, we dont need payne or rudez seeing any minutes.

Our defense is still bad and level of play still drops dramatically when rubio sits. Same old.

I'm not sure Lavine has earned any PT. I would like to see a true pg on the 2nd unit though.

I agree with this take.

Can we at least try to let him play next to a point guard better then Brown before we write him off?

Lavine needs to drive the ball every time he has the ball and start seeing the court. If he takes 1 more pull up jumper early in the clock he should get yanked instantly.

Love that KG gets tough until Randle steps up to him...then KG looks to the ref for help. Man, I hate him.

Same ol KG

Yeah, I never liked that part of KG's act. He's our second best player tonight though.

Debatable.

Volans and what happened to Parrish for that? Now think what happens to guys these days. There's a big difference.

Just bc a guy gets into a scuffle doesn't mean they are wanting to actually fight/throw punches. You can get physical and stand up for your guys without crossing that line. Smart players

I'm not writing him off, I'm just saying theres still a long way to go before he starts making the right basketball decisions on the court, regardless of position.

Payne makes things more difficult. he has a clear path but decides to put up a reverse layup and miss!

Payne is exhibit A when explaining low basketball IQ.

Rickys looks fantastic tonite, If we could see him finish a couple around the basket yet tonite there might be hope for him yet!;)
