**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[thasoleful1]

Lakers gotta stop nuggets role players

 

[pdino]

Went back to the small ball lineup and was the same story, wrecked.

 

[Glorfindel]

Reaves has been food for jammal with that screen from joker. Dlo worthless defensively and offensively. The best line up would be Davis hachimura lebron looney then reaves.

 

[Lizakers]

Playing like they’ve never heard of the nuggets or seen them play

 

[CHAOSE57]

I just wanna see adjustment this second half. Not expecting to win, just see some fight in this guys.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Gotta play Vando this series, Denver ain't shooting like this all series. This was a 9 point game until they kept allowing all those ORebs.

 

[thasoleful1]

TBJ is available too, need some damn defense

 

[DLF]

If I’m lakers I start super small next half

Reaves at the center. **** it. Go all in

 

[purpnyellow]

Yeah Dlo is bad on D and can’t hit his shots he needs to pack his bags at the end of the season

 

[maxelite]

Timely shooting would also help. DLo with another stinker so far

 

[pmatic]

Probably gotta swap Rui for Schroder, give Wenyen a shot.

No, put lil Shaq at center.

 

[atlsfinest]

It's the first half of game one, not going to panic. We need size on the court no matter who it is. We're being a rebounded 36 to 13.

 

[pdino]

There has to be a realization at some point: more than double our rebounds, Jokic has more rebounds than entire team

 

[geno90221]

Kyrie see ya in 60 days

 

[essential1]

We gonna do this with DLo game to game, series to series?

Whole team stinks. AD’s guy almost a 20/20 game at half.
MPJ killing his defenders. Murray killing AR.

They were out rebounded by 23. That’s not DLo. That’s not AR.

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

They were down 8 and they decided to chuck back to back 3s and missed

 

[atlsfinest]

Kyrie see ya in 60 days

Is Kyrie going to help with defense and rebounding?

 

[purpnyellow]

I’d put max in for dlo

We Have to make it tough trade-off. Starting Dennis made sense because it forced to Denver to guard all five of our starters but we're just getting torched defensively and getting dominated on the boards.

We're going to have to give Gabriel a shot even if he is a complete zero on offense. Doesn't matter how well you shoot if you can't secure rebounds

 

[DLF]

I’d put max in for dlo

Reported to Essential. Good luck

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

I'm glad Lakers getting blown out.

It means garbage time for TT and WG. A blessing in disguise cause they will ball it up even though its garbage minutes.

Darvin the Dumb Dumb will then realize like the rookie coach he is, "how come I didn't insert them in the lineup in the 2nd quarter, duhh!"

 

[geno90221]

Is Kyrie going to help with defense and rebounding?

Well D’Lo not so what do we have to lose

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Attention Darvin:

You Are Disappointing all our Lakers fans with your Asinine Decisions! If you want to win, get Anthony Davis some help inside otherwise you are Already Defeated and that would be A Disgrace to All Deez Lakers fans getting their hopes up At Defeating the hated leprechauns in the Finals.

Maybe this is finally the game 1 “feel out” guaranteed L….?
