Beating the Hawks in their building is no joke. This young team continues to show some fight. This time they kept it up till the final buzzer.

The Warriors will be coming off a B2B in a Natl. TV game against OKC as well. Probably as good a chance as ever to steal one

I thought the purpose of making Ingram play the point was to get him more involved in the offense so he's not floating on the wing. Im not sure if Lukes plan is working. He seems to pass up a ton of shots and just doesnt look aggressive at all.

Lakers: 10 to's in 1st half, 5 in second half, 15 total
Atlanta: 8 to's in 1st half, 10 in second half, 18 total

Team did a great job of taking care of the ball in the second half. I could go on for hours honestly, tons of good stats by both the players, or by the team after this one. Larry, JC, Luol, Nick, Randle all with really good games. Lakers hold Atlanta to 22 in the 4th. Solid game all the way around.

Good win. No joke to win against a 3-0 team. The last 2 games weren't bad either. Just missed a ton of open shots. I think we're starting to build that winning culture. The more confidence this team gains, the more shots will go in, the more wins we get. Still need to improve the D, but that will also be a product of chemistry.

What a game by Lou. Solid game by D'angelo...Nick Young looking good. What a bounce back season for Nick Young.

Randles defensive stop won this game. Glad the guys are doing well in these type of games.

Woke up to a nice surprise. Solid win I'd say.

Guys gotta understand it all starts with the D.

On to the next big test.

Great win, I didn't expect that.

Now let's beat the snake and his team.

He had some open looks in the second half, but he just didn't get the ball. One time Clarkson forced a shot while Ingram was wide open in the corner and another time I think Deng forced a bad shot while Ingram was open for the corner three.

The one problem I have with this team is that they don't box out. Man, I can understand TO's (young team and all that), I can understand not being good on D, especially when we don't have any good defensive players, but not boxing out is painful to watch. In the first half Howard is at the line, misses the second FT and they get an offensive board. Man, it's Howard, not Curry, it's quite a big chance that he misses so box the f out. In the second half the exact same thing happened and we gave up a 5 point play. It's the most frustrating to watch, because we're pretty bad on D and when we finally get a stop they may get an offensive board.

I like how D'lo didn't fall in love with the 3 this game and drove to the paint and hit his mid range shots. Only 3 3 pointers, previous games he was like at 9 or 10. The more all around player he becomes on offense, the better for us.

Also Randle's rim protection has surprised me, still has a ways to go, but I always thought that was going to be the reason him at the small ball 5 wouldn't work. He's surprised me a lot so far this year, keep it up young blood!

It wasnt exactly smallball with Randle as a C, Nance played more time against DH when JR&LN were both on the court.
