Aloha,
Can you lose even when you win a game. We will see tomorrow night. The Clippers haven’t played since Saturday. We will come in after 4 games on the road on a back to back. This was a game we needed to win early and rest our guys. Instead LeBron, AD and Austin played 42 minutes and Dennis played 38. Even without PG tomorrow will be a challenge.
We scored at will but where was the D?
Austin will be a Laker a long time. No one can offer more then us in the first 2 years and we can match anyone in those last 2 years.
Last year Malik wasn’t going hard enough on defense and Frank benched him. This year Rui got bench a game and he’s been terrific since. His effort on both sides of the ball has been great.
I am really hoping DLO can go tomorrow. Our 2nd really suffers when Dennis has to start. Dennis has filled nicely starting but he is more valuable running the 2nd unit.
The team is tired and road weary. You could tell by the lack of energy. But am glad we got the win. My biggest concern is DLo. Is he injury prone? I mean he’s been here for a month but has missed as many games as he’s played. Any news on Mo Bamba? We are at a point where we need everybody. Tonight’s game will be a tough one with the Clippers having 4 days off and we are coming from a road trip.
Bamba was move from out to doubt full for the Jazz game. That’s actually good news. It means he’s close to coming back.
Thanks, Michael.
