Preach buddy. I was raving about Randle all last year, he was the Lakers best player. I still can't believe that they gave him up.

This. Randle has been on a tear lately and his team has been winning some games too. Love the player.

Fivethirtyeight downgraded our playoff chances to 2% after last night

Wouldn't be surprised to see Zo shut down for the rest of the year. BI, Kuz, and Hart could miss a significant chunk of games moving forward as well. LeBron is too concerned with stats and chasing down records so I doubt he sits, but it wont matter anyway...the tank is on and we will take full advantage of the 7th hardest remaining schedule.

Yeah, we should cut Lebron and let Kuz play 40-minutes a game and run the offense. Kuz is just a beast on defense too. A Beast.

By the way, shout out to Josh Hart. He was awesome last night. He's one guy that effort can never be questioned. He did everything he could.

It appears he's one of the only ones going down with a fight.

Probably fighting for a spot in the NBA actually. On a really good team he's probably the 10th to 12th guy. I love the hustle and effort but we have been blinded by seeing just average play and interpreting it as great for a while now. He has a narrow range of effectiveness.

If LeBron wasn't just standing around and blocking the way Kuz will probably be the one going after that shot. What's frustrating about LeBron is that he is better than these guys but you can see in that play that he is not even trying. Kudos to Kuz for pushing Bron to play D. At least the effort of Kuz was there (and I would say BBIQ as well). So this is the playoffs activated mode? The LeBron James Harden defense? Good luck to us in the years to come.

LakersFilmRoom posted the entire play and provided some analysis, people jump to conclusions with anything in regards to Lebron. Kuzma simply lost his man.

Kuzma is not a good defender i think that much is known. But Lebron should have also been covering him a lot better.

Kuzma is a terrible defender. He's not strong enough to guard bigger dudes and not quick enough to guard on switches. Hell, Gallo made some slow-mo moves and already got him on skates ffs

I disagree. I think he's a good 8-9 man with a potential to be a Danny Green type of player. That's a really solid player.

I think what we saw in the first 2 months of the season prior to his knee issues is more along the lines of the player he'll become. He's not healthy right now. No where close to it.
