Lakers lead, Lebron sits and Rondo comes in, Lakers trail. A tale as old as time.

Kuzma just doesn't have it. They should've dealt him at the deadline.

And I don't know WTF is wrong with this team and their damn free throws. 9-18? Seriously. Absolutely despicable.

He is probably the worst player on both ends. Should be benched for a few games. Fortunately for him, he gets a week off.

Pathetic 3rd quarter. Lakers give up another 30+ points and get outscored 32-23.

Terrible last 6 minutes of the 3rd quarter.
Poor free throw shooting
Lots of turnovers
No discernible flow on offense

Lets hope for a good start in the 4th

AD, Kuzma, KCP, McGee all having off games... I guess I can understand that with McGee and the altitude/asthma... And maybe AD because big... But It's going to be tough to close this one out if we don't start getting more from them and Green... Who's been OK but we need more from.

Bron's been at around 5.5 turnovers per game over the last 13... he's at 3 so far.... all in the second half.

Caruso is a +13 in the first half and hasn't seen the floor in the second half. Why does Vogel do this crap?

Damn, that was some hard-assed move by LeBron... Good no-call by the refs on the flop.

There we go Bron. Best player on the floor at getting to and finishing at the hoop has been settling for waay too many 3's

He's was getting worked on, on the sidelines... I think he either had a tight hammy or lower back. Altitude can do that to you.

After this timeout would be a great time to bring him in. Vogel should have put him in when we were turning it over like crazy at the end of the third too.
