Let's go baby! We've had a few disappointing losses lately but to be 6-4 after 10 games is not what I expected to be honest. So I'm happy. I was thinking more like 4-6. I really was expecting Reggie to rack up the assists as well so here's to hoping that starts happening. More Ilyasova and Tolliver 3's please. Gotta make sure those two get at least 10/game between them

Ilyasova/Tolliver have not quite shot it 7 times per game and not quite 3 made per game.
Pope 28% Morris 29% Tolliver 33% RJ35% Ilyasova 44%
Would be nice if and when Pope and Morris start knocking them down. It would make our assists go up and our offense look so much better. Or we trade for Durant hehehe

ducler, you make the best game threads. So detailed and clean. Props my man.

Also, I see this as a another loss. Just like the King's game, some guy is going to go off on us, like Clarkson, and Randle will have a career night.

Watch Kobe go for 25 too.

Absolutely no reason to lose this one...Lakers suck.

If we lose this one, I'll be uncomfortable. They need to take it seriously

this game depends on the 80M dollar man. If he can figure out how to pass to the open man when he's double teamed even if it's Drummond *not just on lobs* or even if *gasp* it's someone on the opposite side of the court...
We can end this losing streak and start winning consistently.
If not we need Jennings back

Well, they are playing as bad as the Kings were when we played them.

We drew the short straw vs Sacremento and ended up having to play them when they had hot hands shooting. Hopefully something similar doesn't happen today.

Losing this one makes a 5 game losing streak a pretty serious probability.

Yeah we can not lose this one

Byron Scott is literally the worst coach in the league right now, and it's not even close. That Lakers team is a dysfunctional mess with random benchings when players get hot and racking up DNPs to solid contributors. The only team that beats the mess in FO structure are the Kings.

If we lose then this would imply that our early start was nothing but fool's gold and we have a ton of work to do.

The Kings actually have talent. The Lakers have a bunch of developing young players. I expect a win. Even Vegas expects a win

If they win tonight we are exactly where I thought they would be. (every year me and my brother make 2 print-outs of the schedule. I have them at 6-4 after 10. I have made 1 mistake so far and that's a loss to the Hawks, and a win against Sacramento. Yes I can almost see the future)

The Lakers are exactly what this team needs right now to get back on track and seeing as how both teams are playing on a back-to-back no excuses in this one.

If Andre doesn't get into foul trouble he may set a career high for rebounds and points. I'm going to hedge that one a bit because this is a back-to-back but he should absolutely feast.

For the first time all year I will absolutely be surprised if our boy's drop this one. I expect a win and by a comfortable margin.

A win here and we've had a very successful first 10 games to the season. But we can't come out slowly after losing 3 straight...I hope Reggie and Dre come out with a sense of urgency and just flat out throttle them in the first quarter.

man lou williams better not light it up tonight. couldn't watch most of last night's game but what I was able to see was frustrating.

RipCity32 · Post #18 » by **RipCity32** » Sun Nov 15, 2015 9:48 pm

Must win IMO. Can't play Cleveland with a 4 game losing streak. Plus the Lakers are terrible.

Lou Williams is the EXACT type of player that will go off against us. It's inevitable.
