Kuzma looks useless... I'm hoping it's just rust.

Team as a whole looks very unimpressive

The Spurs came back with their second unit.
Not good.

It’s rust, but he has to work his way back with hustle. I’m sure he’ll figure it out.

I'm not a fan of when players after they shoot, they just stand there with hand raised in the air - follow your shot whether its going in or not

Coaches generally don't want players to chase their shots these days because it gets your floor balance out of whack and inevitably leads to more transition buckets for the opposition.

What a full court pass by LBJ!

LeBron's skill level and IQ never ceases to amaze me. That pass...

Cook shouldn't get any minutes

I can't wait until King Kuz gets back to him usual self, I just hope it doesn't take too long we need a 3rd scorer

Way to early to make any conclusions, but we might be a pretty good defensive team. At least our activity seems to be pretty consistent under Vogel.

I'd look to move Cook before I move KCP

Kuuuuuz!

Spurs have missed a lot of open shots.
That being said, AD is a nightmare matchup for Aldridge and DeRozan has always had trouble scoring over Bron.

I would personally argue that when you get Rondo back, running him with Javale and Cook makes them look much better. One is a catch and shoot knock down guy and the other a lob threat. I think rondo can really help them

I wait about 10 games personally because it was a stress injury in the ankle. You got to think about jumping, running, and cutting after 11 weeks of not playing or being allowed contact in practice

11/8/8 for LeBron and I felt like he played like **** in the first half. Put em away in the third quarter.

Once again

A title contender needs to be able to make stops for a good 3-4 minutes in a game
Consecutive stops and prove they can lock down defensively
The Heatles were able to, the Cavs were able to and this Lakers are able to

Last years lakers couldn’t get three consecutive possessions of lock down defense
