OFFICIAL 2016-2017 LOS ANGELES LAKERS THREAD

[804]

Luke gotta cut the rotation to about 10 too.

Too many guys getting rotational mins.

We've been going 12-13 guys deep a night.

Guys not really getting into rhythm. Foul trouble played a part tonight but the prior 3 games were the same.

Calderon was in the game too long and Lou was cooking, so Luke let him run long, but guys missed too many open threes tonight and too much Paul George down the stretch.

Larry Nance Jr though, he's got some dog in him, great game from him tonight on the defensive end. If he can consistently knock down that 17 footer, he's gonna be a problem for teams.

 

[DaBull]

really liking Larry Nance Jr game !!

also seems like Randle getting that "increase trade value" push within the offense !!

 

[804]

Who's watching, these young boys balling. We might actually close this one out

 

[804]

Good win tonight. We needed it too, because it's gonna be a tough stretch of games until the Nets come to LA.

Warriors on Friday, but it'll be a back to back for them, so maybe we can steal it but im not getting my hopes up.

Got a feeling Klay is gonna go off, just gotta compete and forget the bad possessions

 

[BDBIID]

Big Zu gonna be so good in a few years.

He was putting moves on Dwight when he had opportunity. Granted Dwight physically overwhelmed him a few times it's all good. That'll come with more seasoning

 

[MR.CJ]

Make them jerseys permanent

Proud of these young guys for pulling out this win tonight. Looking forward to seeing them continue to develop and grow together throughout the season.

Key moment when the Warriors made that 16-2 run last year's team would've folded these dudes kept after it and got it done. Wire to wire that's huge for this squad

We coming to play every nite haters... playing with something to prove, look at my boy Swaggy out there with the swag again, Randle looking like an Athletic ZBo for real now, Nance out there with the key plays, Russell has had only 1 bad game so far...

Everybody in their roles perfectly with nods to Coach Luke & his staff which is already showing huge boost from the past regime.. just a matter a time before Ingram cracks the lineup over Deng... we got hella promise, we aren't getting any worse than where we came from that's the scary part haters

 

[eastbay510]

I like how in the last few games they've been able to come up with big shots or a defensive stop when the other team looks like they're gonna go on a run.

Last year they would have folded in those situations.

Laker Luke COY!

These players have obviously bought all the way into Luke's philosophy. They're out there playing hard and having fun at the same time. He's completely changed the culture in a short amount of time.

 

[playmaker88]

Man i knocked the fuck out soon as this shit tipped smh.. will peep the hilights... Clarkson coming of the bench is a great move.. Nick Young came from the international space station i see and is playing ball

 

[Alpha_Ambition]

First time in years I actually enjoy watching them play

 

[joeyfkncrakk]

If ya smelllllllllllalalalalalala-ow.... what the Swagg, is cooking!!!!!

 

[northside7]

If ya smelllllllllllalalalalalala-ow.... what the Swagg, is cooking!!!!!

Another productive night for him. I'm guessing he's trying to fill that vacancy.

 

[joeyfkncrakk]

A motivated Swaggy is a good Swaggy..

 

[Jonah 2.0]

The homie has the Lakers making the finals now.......

I knew these 3 whole wins in a row would start folks to thinking foolishly.

 

[804]

Mavs tonight, Im looking for a big game outta Russell tonight after a couple quiet games, this feels like a let down game though. No Nance Jr tonight
