There's 9 teams worse than them, and 5 teams within 2.5 ahead.
The tank drifted away when we started 10-10

Nobody is tanking,
But these games are hard to watch. We lost something when those injuries hit and we have not been able to find it again...

Read somewhere that we get a protected top 3 lottery pick. Can't be true right?

It's a combination of injuries and the style of play.
Luke's doing the best he can with what he has, but at the same time teams & coaches have caught on and know that the permieter defense & especially with no interior defense or shot blockers all they have to do is stay close in games against and us and they have a good chance of pulling out close wins against us.
That's going to keep happening when you have a young core team like the Lakers have right now. Where this group of players are still trying to figure out how to win close games in the clutch. The vets on this team (Low Will, Deng, Mosgov) have never been go to clutch guys who can single handedly carry us to victories.

Not to make an excuse, but looking at the calendar the Lakers have either played a back to back or every other day (meaning they haven't had more than one day's rest) since November 18th. That's insane.

even with this super slide of games they are still 9th, and only 2.5 games back from Portland

Hard to watch last nice, especially from the stands :x TO's were horrible. Now 1-1 at Golden 1 Center, gonna have to take a trip to Staples this year to try to get above .500

I can understand losing to the Knicks (who are playing well) and the Kings (road game, Boogie a tough cover), but they've got to win the next two vs the Nets and Sixers.

4 wins on this trip are realistic IF we were playing like the November Lakers
Now I'm hoping we win these next 2 and maybe get some confidence back and win one of the Florida games

considering the hot start, i didnt expect us to have a bad losing skid
but man, its really been 7 games. albeit, injuries and tough road trips didnt help
recent positives:
we got healthier
shots are falling for deng....geez
anyone else feel that Julius was soft last night.
he didnt shoot well but seemed out of the game after that boogie incident
they even showed them talking/joking prior to the 2nd half starting
where was the young bull?

Should have beat depleted Grizzlies, Suns and Knicks
Could have beat Jazz and Kings
How the hell are we 10-17??? Damn

Yea, it's been a tough couple of games for him. KP and Cousins dominated him, which is kinda expected.
Randle has to be going full tilt to reach his potential, especially defensively.

Clarkson has been a pile of steaming poop over the last 14 games
First 13 until 11/18: 15.4/ 2.7/ 2.1 on .497/.381/.828 on 12.4 FG & 3.4 Threes
Last 14 since then: 13.8/ 2.9 / 2.5 on .373/ .232 / .833 on 14.4 FG & 4 Threes
Just horrid

Do you guys think our young core should be getting more minutes to speed up development?
