Lebron, Melo and AD is the real Big 3. You must make Melo an integral part of the offense in order to be successful. Lebron should be running a lot of Pick and Roll Pick and Pops with him. Lebron, Melo, AD pick and roll is deadly.

The Lakers should stop listening to the haters and clowns and play him and give him the ball. And stop letting Westbrook turn the ball over and throw games away with bad shots. The fact that Jared Dudley was picked up before Melo is a travesty and a complete travesty.

Glad we got that one. I hope it's the start of our first winning streak.

are you kidding me? Bazemore?

There are players who are good on defense, works extra hard on that end and not take many shots and create for himself like Bazemore. But doesn't mean he is smart and disciplined. Sticking out his hand while a shooter is attempting a shot is very stupid IMO.

The lineup with Davis, James, Anthony, Bazemore, and Monk worked really well last night. That group has three very good three-point shooters, which opened up the floor, as advertised. LeBron took over as the point forward, and they were passing the ball around well. We can't expect Carmelo to keep shooting like that, but LeBron's shooting from three is very encouraging.

One reason it worked is because Anthony Davis worked so hard on the defensive end. He ended up with eight rebounds and four blocks. The Lakers' defense, according to Coach Vogel, is designed to funnel attackers to the bigs in the middle; the strategy is starting to work.

getting out rebound by 13 is unacceptable. try that 2 way big we just signed?
