Not sure what to expect after the last two horrible games. Coach Vogel really lit a fire under the players for their poor defense during those contests:

The records are 20-20 and 21-19, but LA has had an easy schedule so far.

Tonight’s game is a good measuring stick to see what this team really has to offer.

If we go small this is a blow out L. Jokic will torch us.

Carmelo is out. Dwight is a "game-time decision" due to knee soreness. Must be the altitude.

Dwight Howard will start, thankfully.

Good to see that consistency from Russ

Ariza is cooked. This team needs a wing in the worst way. The Grant trade needs to happen or this season is essentially finished.

Dumb Bron get the F back on Defense

Not sure why we double the most random guys so early in the shot clock.

Jeff Green has the ball 25 feet out from the hoop and Stanley Johnson runs over to double and leaves Reed wide open for a 3. Dumb.

This team sucks.

Game is over

Denver is showing us what a good team should look like when facing adversities. They have multiple stars out injured and players out with illness but they still function at a high level because they don't quit on players and play good fundamental basketball. We, on the other hand, can't wait to talk about how we have a couple of guys out therefore we shouldn't be expected to win a game ever.

blow it up man

Lakers all about;

ISO Ball, 1-2 passes maybe, shoot 3 and miss them, play no defense what so ever and complain about every non call

Vogel needs to run some post up plays for Westbrook.

Jeff Green is cooking us. Jeff freaking Green.

We’ve played twice this week. No reason for the team to be this flat-footed.

This team needs athleticism so bad. Maybe with AD and Nunn back, they’ll have it. But we need athletic wings.

It’s complete laziness. We’re bringing help against Jokic, he sees the floor and Jeff Green cuts and no one helps. It’s all garbage.

I get AD/Russ/LeBron have only played basically 6 games where we didn’t play Bazemore or DJ. But.. this team has problems that go beyond that. It looks like they really don’t enjoy each other. You see slumped shoulders, eye rolls, arms thrown in the air, etc.

AD and Nunn isn't going to fix this **** show.
