Lakers are missing Vando, Rui, Gabe Vincent, Prince and fans of opposing teams popping off after 2 weeks into the season.

I think this is a great roster with depth that can compete. Also think they're 1 player away from being one of the favorites to win it all. Pelinka should give up some depth to add that player at the deadline. Both things can be true.

All I can speak on is Twitter, 2 coworkers, and 2 of my friends who live in LA....I can say with absolute certainty that Laker fans are just as guilty as opposing fans.

Yea I guess impatient fans are the loudest. We have seen how NT is during the season. Lakers young players need to get healthy before one can evaluate them.

💯
Heck of a game by Reddish
Vando coming back soon!

Defense should be noticeably better with him. Reddish has been a huge pickup for minimum. Even when his shot is not falling - he's a really good defender and deflects a lot of passes. Same with Wood - he has played well with both Lebron and AD. Both need to be more consistent - but that's why they were available at minimum.

Vando, Rui, Reddish - great size on the wings. Hoping to see all of them play in a game.

Reddish has always been a very talented player, I think his confidence hasn't been there. Good to see him performing well.

Exactly. After missing that open shot to win the game in Miami - he has had his best 2 games of the season. Makes a huge difference when team leaders are all behind you. Hope he continues to have some good games a little more regularly.

Was hoping for a better start than 5-5 but an ok start all things considered.

Wished D'Lo played like this all the time. He's an elite passer but has resisted the role of a true pg. He'd be pretty good at it if he fully embraced it.

That's not as bad as most other courts.


I liked that. Now, knock them down.

That's much better. That purple and teal court was awful.
Always an excuse with you missing players. Maybe quit missing players?
Complete domination of Memphis tonight. Lakers f**ked up that team in the playoffs this past April and they haven't recovered from that.

No one played over 30 minutes and Lebron only played 23 mins. Hopefully somewhat fresh legs tomorrow against the Kings - will need them.



Jaxson Hayes dunks were wild tonight!
