It's impressive how well Anthony Davis can shoot with either hand.

What is perimeter defense?

AD is not even contesting shots anymore. Take him out of the game if he’s hurt. He just played an awful 5 or so minutes on both ends of the court.

AD letting these scrubs drive to the hoop without even altering their shots. So **** sick of this guy.

Blowing shots at the basket and not getting back on defense has been the Lakers speciality this half.

He tweaked his ankle since that he has been out of the game inside the court. Anyways he has a problem mentally so passive all the time during the season I remember AD doing this in NO on defense and that doesn't speak well about this team.

This team is just a joke DJ, Melo and Westbrook with that you aren't going to win anything. It's just sad how they trow away a championship team.

Is Olajuwon still playing for this team? Sure seems like it. The Rockets are shooting 57%. Of course, the Lakers are shooting 57.8% so there seems to be a mutual agreement not to challenge anything.

Another stellar defensive effort against a bottom dweller.

I guess defense was not on the Lakers' agenda for tonight's game. Rockets just scoring at will in the paint.

Westbrook can play, but it's a style of play I don't really enjoy... I am developing a healthy dislike of Bazemore... DAJ is boring.. Bradley looks like fake-hustle to me... AD is playing small again and LeBron looks pretty old.

Us playing zone against this team says it all...

Remember when AD/LeBron were a championship duo?

Lets go Team!

I am impressed with Reaves though

I don't mind Bradley out there.... Westbrook is fake stats and he's never been watchable for me. Bazemore is like Westbrook without the talent.

Zone defense is telling. Vogel is throwing the book at it to see if something will stick. That ankle injury for Bron is lingering and he's becoming far less active. Something is wrong with Davis. I didn't watch much of the last 2 years but he's significantly different from his first year here.

This is how he's looked since the first preseason game of the post championship season... He was an absolute monster that game, like he had been the championship run... Since then he's looked a step slower and much less athletic.

Only flash I've seen of the old AD was the final reg season game against Phoenix last season... He carried the team (Lebron out) to an easy win against the team that ultimately ran us out...

If this continues into the second half of the season I wonder if ownership has the spheres to trade Davis? He's about the only chip we have that could bring a return. He's not leading a post LeBron team anywhere.

Lots of high screen PnR! That's the LeBron I've been wanting to see

Not a pass bro

AD with some great hustle and rebounds in this quarter
