Starting lineup won't look the same.

Both Howard and THT have tested earlier out of the protocols and are available to play.

This game could be over by half time.... a full strength PHX team against our full strength team is iffy for us at this point.

I hate Chris Paul more than any player I've ever watched.... Melo is right in there with ML Carr and Bill Laimbeer however. Westbrook is approaching this group fast.

Playing with three point guards out there and our best offense is a Melo iso. Can’t make this stuff up.

We're hanging in there. Will this last?

Who has been placed in Covid protocol? A ball boy? Freaking amazing

THT doesn't screw around.... when he's off offensively he's off.

Love IT. But I don’t know why he’s getting this much burn.

We got some ballers in our backcourt, IT and THT shooting a combined 2-20.

What's the alternative?

I am reduced to box score watching since the game is on TNT, but LA has 12 assists on 28 baskets. That's really poor and indicative of poor passing or too much isolation play. A couple of players are missing everything: Isaiah Thomas and Horton-Tucker, both 1-10.

Now 1-12. Perhaps take Talen out of the game?

Holy crap this second half is garbage. Lakers went 0-9 from three in the third quarter and have so far missed their last 11. Westbrook with 5 of the team's 8 turnovers. No defense either as usual.

This team is done. Need to get rid of 90% of this team.

Landsberger · Post #19 » by **Landsberger** » Wed Dec 22, 2021 5:08 am

And our failure is complete..... down 20.

This team needs to have everyone clicking just to compete with a top 10 team it seems. PHX has not played a good game at all and they are still up 20.

NoseBleedLakers · Post #20 » by **NoseBleedLakers** » Wed Dec 22, 2021 5:09 am

Lakers are what, 1-16 from three in the second half? **** pathetic.

And that is game. Another 20 point blowout L. Was expecting a moral victory early in the game losing by less than 10 points, but nevermind lol.
