I'm happy that Intuit Dome is finally here and looking forward to our opening home game! Seeing all the pictures and video, I can't wait to catch a game and see it in person!

Am I trippin or do we have 16 B2B's? How do we continue to get the highest B2B games in the league? I thought getting our own stadium would do away with a lot of this stuff. It did at least eliminated those terrible afternoon games. I only saw the last game against GSW as the only afternoon game on the schedule and that's an away game.

I read the NBA increased the number of back to backs overall this year, up to an average of about 15. Some teams (like the lakers of course) only have 13. But it won’t be like years past where we had twice as many as other teams

One victory at at time, I guess. I’m ecstatic they the matinee home games are basically gone.
I can live with having slightly more than average b-2-bs.

I just hope Kawhi's knees are ready and can stay healthy cuz these B2B's aren't doin him any favors.

Someone did the maths
This isn’t bad but it is irritating that the Lakers get the wasier schedule every year, considering we played in the same arena for 20+ years and still play 12 miles from each other this year. If they can’t make it equal for some reason, at least alternate it so we get the favorable schedule every other year

Probably not happening until Bron isn’t playing for the Lakers anymore. Sigh.
Per some metric Justin Russo posted about on Twitter, we still have the second hardest strength of schedule in the NBA. That said, I doubt any of these measures weight day games as harder than night games, so we’ll see if our new digs really do make a difference.

Another thing I’d be interesting in is figuring out how many times we play a team that is on the 2nd night of a back to back. I remember a couple years ago almost every team that traveled out here played us first and then the Lakers the next night

I’m shocked RoCo doesn’t have an NBA job. But I think he was injured a lot last season.
And I actually liked Justise in his time here. He was solid in small-ball line-ups. But he’s also a guy who doesn’t seem to be able to stay healthy.
K-Mart Jr. is a PF in a 2 guard’s body.
But, yeah, reading that, I’m pretty happy to have Jimbo.

We’ll be lucky if he even plays 20 games this season.

yah i dont think the team got that much worse, they actually got better in other places like age and athleticism
unfortunately it all hinges on kawhis health, none of it is going to matter unless dude is 100% in the post season

Agreed
im strangely optimistic
(with the obvious caveat of concern for Kawhi’s health, but I guess that’s just a given at this point).
