The Lakers have always felt like our mirror image since the rebuilding years. Just like us, they’re dealing with both the physical and spiritual absence of their top two stars. Some nights, they look like contenders; other nights, they barely look like a play-in team.

Just seems to me that their roster is built to value Bronny James’ value as a pesky guard defender.

Are we tanking or competing?
Is this game over or not?

Was thinking the same thing. I still say we make a low risk trade for a big that can run the floor, score, and rebound...Marvin Bagley is probably available for next to nothing. With that being said, Bona has been doing his thing.

I'm pretty sure Max isn't in favor of the tank.

This is why I keep coming back. What the hell did Nick Nurse do? This coach is a mad scientist and his formula was missing badly, but somehow, someway he's got us playing to our strengths and winning games. The Lakers came into tonight playing some of their best ball of the season. I know AD was shelved but with half our team injured along with Embiid and George that's hardly an excuse. It does show you how reliant LA is on him because the paint became a playground for Maxey, Oubre, and Yabu after he left.

Can't say enough about Maxey. He's been compared with Jalen Brunson. I remember it last year, the back and forth about who is better. Brunson had him mainly because Brunson can keep teams winning all by himself. Dare I say Maxey has ascended into that type of player. A three game win streak is a sample size to go off of, but he had us right in the games against New York, Indy, and OKC last week. I believe we're witnessing the next level with him.

Seriously he’s been really good. Crazy spacing, solid D, and can attack close outs.

Spacing the floor has unlocked Maxey’s next level.

Well they have chemistry, my biggest worry is if Morey will go star hunting again and mess it all up.

Sometimes the best move is to not make a move at all.
