    Again Supers come through, but where’s the help? Ja Morant-less Griz could have easily beat us. Is that what we are gonna have to do every game is play LBJ and AD 35 Min per?

    Whew!

    • Lot of it came from LeBron and AD turning the ball over 10 times between them, including those almost fatal turnovers at the end. LeBron and AD almost threw the game away after saving it.

    We didn’t play as well as I hoped, but the 2 Supers pulled it off with a little help from their friends. Hoping LBJ can have more help so he doesn’t have to put in 35 minutes.

    Good win, but..

    If we could, would we trade for Harden giving: Kuz, THT, and more and not named AD or LBJ?

    • Never in a million years! James Harden stands for everytning that the Lakers have always hated. There’s a limit to always wanting to have the best players just so you can win, DJ. Harden will never be a Los Angeles Laker. Never. Ever. Period.

    Little sloppy, but we got it together. Perhaps a bit more Trez and Kuz and a little less Marc? Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate the birth of Jesus. Now it’s up to us to keep his words in thought and deed!

    That's us!

    Great Fiver, Jamie. And the game was a needed breath of fresh air and hope for Lakers fans. What I loved most was zero intimidation. Not when the game started. Not when they fell behind by 4 late in the first quarter and then fought back to get the lead. Not when the dumb ref kicked Dennis out with only a 4-point lead. In fact, our response to the ejections compared to the Net’s reaction said everything about which team wanted this game more.

    1. The ejections. Agree 100% that Dennis should not have been ejected. Waving good bye to Kyrie is not taunting. This is like suspending THT for coming a feet onto the court. The league needs to look at these situations with some common sense.

    2. The run. Have to give the Lakers credit for not folding when they lost Dennis, who had been having his best game of the year. Lots of credit goes to THT for his playmaking and running the offense but the entire team responded like they had done all game long. I’m hoping this was one of those transcendent moments on the road when this team said enough is enough.

    3. Ben! It’s actually rare when a team can add a player via the buyout market who becomes a real difference maker. The Lakers were able to do that last year with Markieff Morris. This year, it looks like Rob was a magician as he appears to have landed not one but two difference makers in Dre and Ben. Every Lakers fans needs to realize we would NOT have won that game without Dre and Ben. Not taking away from the rest of the team but they were the Calvary that gave this team newfound confidence.

    4. 8 players in double figures. Right on, Jamie. Balance is a bitch for teams to handle, especially teams who don’t play good defense. Lakers dominated like they were playing the Kings. The defense was great, doubling KD and forcing him into 8 turnovers and shutting down Brooklyn’s 3-point shooting to 0-15 for the second half. Message and Finals preview sent to Nets.

    5. Buyout Blues. Ef the small market teams. Don ‘t they remember they were the ones who negotiated these buyouts. Want to blame somebody, blame the Cavs and Piston’s front offices. Don’t blame the Lakers. There’s enough allowing the tail to wag the dog already. Enough with the losers trying to dictate more advantages. They’re being carried enough already.

    Lakers need to keep this mojo going tonight and tomorrow night. Can’t allow any letdown and blow two winnable games. Finish the road trip with a pair of blowout wins and a 5-2 record.

    • Defensively they’re a great fit. I’m less optimistic they would click offensively. Giannis is a great passer within schemes and concepts. He’s not a “Quote un quote” pure facilitator. That’s not him. More of a great facilitator within team concepts, he’s not a LeBron or a Rod Strickland.

    Every time LeBron or THT or a Laker drove into the paint, there were at least 3 and sometimes 4 Heat players challenging the shot. In the fourth quarter, the Heat started doubling LeBron on top and he made the right plays by having his guards set picks for him and then slip to open spots for catch and shoot threes. That should have provided an easy victory had we just made the league average of 37%. Instead, we went 1 for 13, which is 7.7% if you hadn’t already guessed. Hit one more three and the game is a win. LeBron made right plays and those who say he should have driven don’t know what the F they’re talking about.

    I had no problem with how we played in the 4th quarter. My issue is with how we played in the first three quarters, standing around while LeBron was isolated on the wing with no picks. We should have run the same offsense as we did in the 4th, which created 13 open threes. Instead, we were lax on defense and allowed the Heat to kill us in points in the paint and turned the ball over 11 times trying to attack the rim and playing right into the Heat’s hands. Too many guys not taking wide open threes in rhythm.

    I am usually a KCP basher, but thinking we should keep him (LBJ will decide). Love, always hurt, nah. Thinking Schroeder would be nice. Give Kuz another chance? Melo? Thinking Turner would be a nice fit. Don’t know if Oli can stay healthy? Wonder what Brass thinks of THT? Caruso ain’t a Super, but I think LBJ likes him and trusts him, that’s big. Rondo should stay put. Keep Howard or Mac. Keep the door open if we could for Freak, Murray (future), Morant (future), Dame trade some how? Ya’ll know me, go BIG or fold the tent-see LBJ and AD. : )

    VOTE for Democracy!

    My opinion is there probably isn’t one Goat. LBJ, sure, Kobe, yes, MJ, of course, perhaps even Magic, Kareem, Russell? Not really a Gretzky standing alone. Just my thoughts. : )

    • I very much agree with you, DJ. There isn’t one Goat. The talk of Goat is never going to go away, and all of these superstars you mentioned will forever be remembered for their greatness. While some of them have pioneered and engineered their craft to greater heights, others have gone on to carry them to perfection.

      That was a good reminder about going out and vote. There has never been a better time to go out there and vote than this time around. So much going astray, and it is within our power through voting that we can effectively make the realization of a better future come true. Thanks for the post.

    • I’d have trouble naming the greatest Laker, then add Lebron and MJ to the contest? It’s pointless to try, team trophies are all that matter anyway.
