Game 8: Jazz Vs Lakers 

Post#1 » by MAMBAEMD » Sat Nov 5, 2022 2:35 am

Let’s go Lakers!!
Let’s get 3 in a row.

Jazz are playing well. Markannen is playing out of his mind at 21 PPG.
AD better get on him and not let him go off.

These are home games we have to win!

Our defense is asleep so far.
We’ve given up 27 points with 3 and a half minutes left in the 1st Q

Love me some Matt Ryan. Reminds me of Duncan Robinson with that lighting fast release.

Lebron has been AWFUL on both sides of the floor the last couple games. Might need to give him a load management day soon.

He's finally looking his age in many ways. He was horrible down the stretch the other night and has played like crap in this one. A younger and energetic team is our kryptonite..... well... just about all teams have been our Kryptonite this year so far.

He is exhausted and/or injured and it’s just a matter of time that he’ll miss games. If he miss more than 5 games AD would most likely get annoyed like last year and would be less engaged. Deep inside he also wants to take games too. Lebron eventually comes back then It’s Davis turn to miss games

Wtf happen to Lebron for the past 2 games? He's like walking corpse out there. Did he change body w/Westbrick?

In terms of games played, he's just old. We've seen it with all greats. He needs a role of about 28 minutes a game where he isn't the primary offensive cog. The problem with the greats (other than Kareem) is that they mentally can't make that adjustment. The last 3 years of most of them are hard to watch in comparison to their primes.

Davis will miss 30 games at least this year.... he will fall down on 50% of his shot opportunities and he will settle for fade away contested 20 foot jumpers over using his talent to score in the paint. He'll tease with a few big games here or there but he's not a path forward for us. Best to move him while at least a few other teams in the league still think he's a cornerstone player.
