  1. We played a very good game man. I feel like AD getting that freak fall over Kawhi and hobbling the rest of the game really killed us.

    But I really loved the defense they showed tonight, holding this Clips team to under 105 pts is very good defense. This was the best defensive performance i’ve seen from this team since 20/21.

  2. Defensive effort aside. You can’t really go out shooting like that in today’s offensive heavy game.

  3. WHY IS A TEAM THAT CAN’T SHOOT, ATTEMPTING 44, 3 POINTERS

    edit: I know why they keep shooting 3s due to teams playing off them and daring them to shoot. This comment was made cause I can’t comprehend that these dudes can brick this much

  4. This team just doesn’t have enough shooters or guys that can go get a bucket to make any noise. Which is what literally everyone said before the season. Shame…

  5. I can’t believe how many people here keep saying why are they taking 3s or jump shots at the end there. As soon as Russ was in, I knew the game was over. Russ’s defender just leaves him open to guard other players. Just pack the paint and it’s over. I don’t care how good Russ played on D. It’s 4v5 out there on offense whenever he’s on the floor. Get him out of this team.

  6. This team is a Russ trade away of being a good team. I think they just need to rip the band-aid off, man.

  7. Make the Buddy/Turner trade just for my mental health at this point. Buddy drops 20 ppg next to Bron and AD

  8. You know what.

    The loss sucks.

    But I came out of that game feeling more confident than sad or hopeless. There were quite a few positives which I was very impressed with. The hustle and effort was good to watch. They ran some good plays. It’s just that when you shoot like crap, there’s not much you can do. And that is expected when you have bad shooters.

    All on the front office really. What they decide to do.

  9. They played hard asf tonight and thats at least a huge positive. Sucks about the loss because it was right there. Just one fucking shooter on this team and this game is a dub.

    Russ/Bev/Nunn shot 1-25. That is all.

  10. Russ gotta go. Fuck the picks and get some solid role players in hield and turner. russ just doesnt work here

  11. Hot damn! We need shooting, defence looks promising. Obviously need some more capable defenders but damn shooting is scary bad

  12. That question to Kawhi about how he prepares himself for coming off the bench and staying warm was definitely about Russ’s comments the other day

  13. This isn’t the NFL 0-2 doesn’t derail your season. We can come back but I feel that Buddy Hield and Myles Turner trade should happen sooner than thanksgiving

  14. Bev/Reaves/Walker/JTA/Bron as a rotation unit looked legit. I think there’s something there

  15. Need Dennis Schroeder back ASAP.

    Nunn, Westbrook and Beverly giving nothing on offense from the guard position.

  16. Hard to be a good team with $47 million wasted on Westbrick. Oh well game was entertaining see y’all next game!

  17. It was a good game. Russ is clearly focused on defense finally and his shot selections were good for his normal %s (though obviously the results weren’t). Walker and AR seemed like they have good chemistry, AD was getting fed and making some nice plays, and LeBron was playing well on both ends for the most part. Saw a lot more to like than the the first game.

  18. It should be a crime to take a 2020 team with AD, LeBron, KCP, Kuzma, Caruso, THT, and an upcoming first round pick and turn it into the monstrosity that they have now. I think a random redditor could have done a better job of constructing the team, first and foremost by not completing one of the most obviously stupid trades in NBA history.

    I’ve been a Lakers fan straight through since 1962 — for 60 years — but I am going to take a break from the team until they at least manage to trade Westbrook. It’s just too painful to watch.

  19. Laker stans on Twitter are annoying AF. Talking about we beat ourselves just need to make shots. NO SHIT

  20. Rob better be fucking FaceTiming with Myles Turner rn asking him to show his damn foot on camera
