Kings @ Lakers, Game #63 4/30, 7:30 PM

Why couldn't we see that LeBron, THT, McLemore, Morris, Gasol lineup more? They dominated.

[Beethoven]

Beautiful loss love this team. Great start to my weekend dum

[TwoStarz]

As lebron ages we will see Davis weaknesses show more and more. The dude is not a true 1, which is really weird because he’s way too good to be a 2. Go figure

On a side note, it makes me sad to see what has become of the laker board. I remember becoming a die hard in 2010 and reading this board everyday. We use to get way more than 2 pages on a game thread

[ROballer]

Schroder doesn't fit with Lebron at all. Period.

And you're not gonna pay a guy banking on Lebron missing months of action like it happened this year, just to fill the gap in his absence.
It's clear that Lebron is here to stay for 2-3 more years and Schroder is not a 20+ mil guy when paired with him.

Let him walk or work a sign and trade to get something in return.

I don't know what the **** is Vogel thinking.

THT has one of the best games of his life against a tough team in Utah(24/4/2/2 in 28 minutes)...and then sees 12, 17, 16, 23, 10 minutes in his next 5 games, while we lose 4 of them.

KCT has 10 points and 1 three made in 65 minutes in this last two games, McLemore has been hit or miss. Not like the other wings are earning their run either and we lost 4/5 anyway with the "veterans".

Why would you cut this guy's legs like that all of a sudden?
He's probably close to losing his spot in the rotation while not doing anything wrong.

Davis is a quality 2. He's a bit like Draymond Green at peak. Brings defense and some quality offense impact (iso for AD, playmaking for Green).

[Hans1984]

Fcking pathetic.

[Spanish_Laker]

I think it is already too late for this team to turn on the switch. AD has been pretty bad this season and LeBron will have barely 9 games until the playoffs to ramp it up. It doesn't look good especially if we keep losing easy games and we end up facing the Clippers in the 1st round.

[Kilroy]

So far the only guy of the 3 guys we might keep in Schroder, Drummond, and McLemore that looks decent with AD and LeBron is McLemore... Schroder looks awful, Drummond looks Ok but with very little interaction with AD...
At least McLemore is an unconscious shooter from downtown... He's just not great on D and I guess that's why Vogel doesn't play him much...

[Jedi32]

Voges and the rest of the staff have 5 games to figure this out. I know it sounds crazy but we are the defending champs. Forget going out in the first round.

[Freighttrain]

Can Lebron give Drummond some baby powder before the game? The guy keeps slipping passes and easy dunks for no apparent reason and it baffles me.

9 games, May 16, which is 15 days left is a long time but for the sake of argument that you are right, that it's short, would 2 extra games help them if they go to the play in Tournament from May 18 to the 21st? That is they lose the battle bet 7th and 8th seed, they then play the winner of the 9-10 seed, they win and playoffs start May 22nd where they play the inexperienced Suns and avoid playing the Clippers and Utah.
If they lose 2 straight and miss the playoffs, oh well then they deserve to lose. If they lose to the Suns, lead by the aging CP3 and inexperienced Booker, Bridges and Ayton, then they deserve to lose.
If they place 6th and face the surging Clips with still a rusty AD and Lebron where they still havent found their rhythm and chemistry, they will likely lose.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Will Davis and LeBron play the 4 b2bs or will you rest them and accept the play-in?

I'm a Suns fan and trying to figure out how to avoid the Lakers in the 1st round.

Peak Green was a top 10 player, I guess it depends how you saw him. He is a devisive player.
