Oh-oh --- matchups don't look good for us. Here's hoping our guys play to the level of their competition. Clearly they can't take it easy for 2 or 3 quarters like they usually do.

Good win even without LBJ playing, doing what needs to be done.

Great win. Lakers without James are still better than half of the teams which beat us this season, but Lakers are Lakersm so we take them very seriously, especially in 2nd half, and win. Harris, Millsap, and Beasley have great shooting night, while Barton and Plumlee have a great all-around game tonight, so we even don't need Jokic and Murray prime game for this routine win. My favorite stat: 8-19 turnovers (2-11 in 2nd half).

I'll admit, I was a little worried in the first half, but the second half was rather amazing. A satisfying win, but truthfully, we should beat the Lakers when they are missing one of their two superstars.

Barton had a rough start but he contributed in other ways beyond scoring. Look at those 13 rebounds, but it was his effort on the defensive end that impressed me. Still not a "stopper" but quite satisfying.

Harris had a nice game, but only took 10 shots. I'd love to see him get 15 shots per game. His contributions on the defense are always great, so ...

This was a team win with Jokic & Murray not playing great.

Murray struggled shooting but he had some nice defense.

Jokic struggled on the defensive end and only took 8 shots. At least twice, he had the ball one-on-one with Rhondo and Bradley and didn't even look to shoot.

The most impressive stats to me was 27/30 at the line. 90% with 30FTA is a great sign. They went to the rim way more aggressive than normally, obviously 90% won´t be there everyday but increasing FTA will help a lot, specially during PO.
