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

amazing what playing under control and knowing your role can do for your impact.

What has changed about his role from last year to this year? I think his shot selection might be a tad bit better, but main difference is he's making shots.

I think the biggest difference is he had to take the player option this summer, so basically he knows this is his last opportunity to remain in the league.

AR gotta pass the ball.

Bro was forcing fast breaks and freelancing, wiping out the impact on D.

That's not really a role IMO.. I think he's here to defend and try to be useful on offense somehow.

But yeah definitely cut out the wild drives to the basket.

 

[pmatic]

D'Lo shooting like it's April. Come on.

 

[grittyman]

King.

 

[pmatic]

Get D'Lo off the court. He doesn't have it tonight.

 

[pmatic]

Not a fan of this lineup, JJ.

 

[grittyman]

Reaves has been flat out awful tonight

 

[frink85]

Pass was nice but dangerous

 

[pmatic]

Reaves has been flat out awful tonight

He was awful last game too.

Actually all our guards been awful tonight. Magic guards stonewalling them.

 

[pmatic]

Gahdammit.

 

[frink85]

not my MVP

 

[tupac003]

AD blew the game.

 

[akajae]

AR, LeBron and AD FTs

 

[Dhizzle]

This team can be so frustrating smh

 

[LD7]

AD sold the game. Idc what they say. SMH.

 

[pmatic]

Reaves missed two free throws and AD missed three.

JJ leaving Knecht to guard Franz was dumb as hell too.

 

[tupac003]

I can't believe that was the out of the time out play...

Them damn freethrows. This game was over...smh

 

[nike4kja05]

******* free throws my god.

 

[nermindee]

lol they deserve that L

 

[Lizakers]

Choke job
Deserve to lose

How you get out worked by a team that played back to back?

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

Typical AD. Chance to seal and he blows it

 

[denni5themenace]

so unclutch at the FT line

 

[Lizakers]

Why inbound to choke artist AD when Orl had to intentional foul?
