We're playing really bad...

Lakers have 24 **** turnovers tonight. Unbelievable.

I can’t tell if AD is actually hurt, or was just sulking.

I'll give AD credit, there's been times when he's banged up and plays through it.

I can’t believe how bad the refs have become.

Looked like Davis was holding his calf after that pizz poor pass James and he slipped chasing it. He seems to be moving better now.

Good that he made that... otherwise that would have been another horrible possession.

Well we get another rather unimpressive win...

It seems he has more success shooting threes than attacking the rim, at least tonight.

120 points on 51.7 pct for the worst offensive team in basketball. Not even remotely good enough.

Is there such thing as a frustrating win? Lol.

Lakers got lucky with this one. Warriors played hard, but the Lakers made this one much tougher than it should've been. Twenty-four turnovers by the Lakers is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable.

Mark Jackson said it best, that the Lakers are capable of winning the championship, but not with this kind of sloppy and careless play. Whatever, a win is a win. Onto the next.

not good way in honoring kb24 with those 24turnovers

Ok, lets get these next 2 and go into the break. Give staff time to make adjustments

Another bad defensive performance. Only positive about this one is that they got the win :noway:

The offensive sets are so basic. It seems like Bron just waits for everyone to get to the edges and then attacks.

For those who really watch how they run their sets, maybe you can enlighten us what schemes are they using aside from AD and other wings leaking out, Lebron bullying shorter defenders, AD getting the ball from the low block.

The schemes are fairly basic... the crispness of the execution of them foretells what everyone thinks will come out of the movement... which is waiting for everyone to get to the edges so they can run a pick and roll or rotate the ball when it fails to a shooter. That's pretty much it.

Every now and then you'll see play designed for a certain person... but those are few and far between.

Lakers are like 26-2 ? against bad teams because they get about 10-16 pts from easy lobs via AD leaking out, backspinning from the weak side and Lebron bullying smaller defenders, if their schemes are that basic then I don’t see them beating disciplined teams in the playoffs. I pray to God that the suggestion of a couple here that Vogel is saving a few sensible schemes for the playoffs is true.
Why not try Lebron setting a massive pick for AD at the low block etc?

Simply need more points from the shooters. And beg for more defensive effort
