Gamethread: Lakers vs Kings Game #3 Lakers Win 3-0

[SlimShady83]

Slims Keys to the game

* Bench players, let's be honest, lakers are going to be tired on a back to back and a tough win vs Suns. Kings have a good starting 5 and no bench, Lakers Bench need to step It up

* Contain DeRozan, yes DeRozan his balling for the kings keep him under 20pts

* Defense, need to step It up.

I would like to see Knecht or Max start Insted of DLO, but don't think JJ will change starting lineups, would like to see Knecht on DeRozan would be fun.

We got this one. We got it.

a few days Questions,
when was the last time
1. AD had 3 straight great scoring games?
2. last time AD won in Sacramento?
3. Lebron played great after 2nd of back to back?
if they win tonight, I can’t help but actually feel optimistic moving forward.

What A Game

JJ for coach of the year

How are the Max/JHS starter propagandists feeling right now?

a few days Questions,
when was the last time
1. AD had 3 straight great scoring games?Off the top of my head - 2021 Suns Games 1-3
2. last time AD won in Sacramento?Not since Sabonis came there
3. Lebron played great after 2nd of back to back?He's been kinda passive the last two games, except needing to force it 3rd quarter onwards in the Suns game. He's been load managing on court, so we can take it as an anomaly.
if they win tonight, I can’t help but actually feel optimistic moving forward.

Keys to the game

* Failed to keep Demare under 20
* Failed bench - Lakers 18 - 19
* Defense was good for the most part

Next game Is Monday/Tuesday? Won't be doing next gamethread unless you want It up super early?

Still won and love It

I thought this was a lost game. They were pretty flat the first half.. but they kept it close and Lebron just went insane..

Wow! Great game & win; and a back to back.. hope they can sustain this.

Undefeated.

:meditate:

3-0

Undefeated.

Yeah...couple wins I didn't expect, tbh. 6 players in double figures...prob my fave stat of the game.

Bench combined for 65 minutes....2 rebounds. Prob my least fave stat of the game.

But you take em how you can get em....3-0 is not bad

in other words, 2 keys didn’t matter because Lebron carried the team to victory

I dunno....Kings scored 127 points, right? That's hardly good defense. I remember the 2008-10 Celtics would talk about trying to keep opponents to 20points per quarter. (Note: maybe that was the 2004 Pistons....it was one of them)

We gave up essentially 32 points per quarter. Still got the win, which is all that matters....but defense ain't looking great, imo.

Nice win. It reminded me a lot of last seasons games vs. the Kings. Some things never change.
