Won’t be mad at a loss, but hopefully we can take the opportunity to learn and hopefully steal a win from one or two of the next few teams.

This one will be tough, but I believe AD is still out so we won't get dominated so easily. If we find a way to steal a win in LA, it would be huge and give us a real chance to come home with 2 or even 3 wins. The Houston game at the end is the must win and we'll really have to beat San Antonio if we don't win one of the LA games.

Lakers should definitely be favored, but their bigs are just as bad ours right now with AD, Gasol, and Morris, all out. They should be much more beatable than Denver.

We need to pick up McBob again for a game just to have him hit Lebron in the neck again.

No one expects us to win, but the Lakers are 5-5 in their last ten. We just need to concentrate and execute.

Kemba Walker may never have beaten LeBron James, but he is no longer our point guard. It's a new era in North Carolina.

Late one...definitely agree that this is way more winnable than the game last night that we won't ever mention again :o

Gonna need Gordon to do more. 7 points on 7 shot attempts just ain't even close to it.

The Lakers announcers are such homeboys.

Both teams are shooting over 65%, 6-9.

LeBron is such a giant of a man. I have not seen him really since he moved West. He is 6'9" 250 lbs., compared to our center, Biyombo, 6'8" 255 lbs.

I feel like using PJ at center when the lakers have Harrell on and Lebron off makes sense. It would keep Biz off the floor as much as possible.

I think Monk plays better with Rozier or Ball. Our end of quarter execution was execrable.

Another rough one in the making it’s looking like. Thankfully I’m in bed and will probably crash before it gets out of hand tonight.

The Lakers without Anthony Davis do not look like a much better team, but they are executing a whole lot better than the Hornets.
