If you rank best wins of the year then logic would hold that there has to be a worst win of the year, as well. Can’t have one without the other

The last 8 seasons excuse goes only so far. When the team plays way below their standard, they should be called out. |

Try looking at the big picture. |
Two games away from the the Lakers all time road winning streak. Maybe YOU should look at the BIG PICTURE. |

| Trae was not perfect today, but he did hurt us...I thought the point of having AB back was that he could defend the other team's best perimeter player? |

Just really bad, win or lose. Worst performance of the year imo. |
Call me old fashioned, but the worst peformance of the year are games we have lost. So there are only 3 to choose from so far. |
That’s fine and you can look at it binary.
Imo this game was far worse than losses. Just terrible, but beauty of it is we can all have our own opinion on it. |
Really this game was far worse than the losses? Like the loss we had against Dallas where we got demolished? Or the game against Toronto where they killed us? This W is worse than them? K. |

I have never seen a worse team than the hawks, even the lakers from the past few years.
This team takes bad shots, and love the 3s while have no good 3 point shooters |
vince had an open layup to cut it to 1 with about still 10 seconds left and he passed it to cam who is horrible at 3s lol.. and they still a timeout..wow!

Trae Young 30 points from 24 shots
I'm okay with that  |

| Have to clean up the sloppy play. Can't expect to win in Indiana with the way they've been turning the ball over the past couple games. |

Lebron will go down as the greatest Laker of all time after about only 70 games played as a Laker when this happens

Rondo was good this game. We don't win without Rondo |
He dominates play when he is in and makes bonehead plays that you’d expect of a rookie.
He may have been ok, but Caruso getting his minutes would have been better. |

No. Caruso can't playmake and has no handles. They do different jobs.
Put Caruso in instead of Rondo and we lose |

Not in the 4th he wasnt.
Rondo has no business closing tight games. Takes the ball out of Brom's hands and we have better defenders on the bench.

We get wins for regular season winning streaks, which affects are seeding. We don't get (bleep) for losses btw. |

Bron was gassed at the end of the game. Insert Caruso and we take a hit on offense.
Caruso was taking minutes because Bradley was out, they do similar jobs. |

Lakers could play well every game .... on NBA 2K.
In reality. No NBA team plays at a consistent level all season long.
The crazy thing about this Laker team.
They win when they play level 5.
They win when they play level 9/10.
They win when they play 7/10.
They basically are like the Shaq-Kobe Lakers team where they are heavily reliant on role players around 2 superstars. And like them, they are up and down during a RS.
Difference? So far, this team finds ways to win even when playing average or bad. This was a pretty bad game, and they won. They played an average game against Miami and won. You did not see that with other Laker contenders. When they played bad trap games, they lost a lot of those.
So it's weird in that this team plays such good defense, and has such a way to control the game for a little period of a game whenever it wants, that they can win and play bad for a large portion of a game.
I don't think this is a bad thing. We will need to play a lot better to get wins at Indiana or Milwaukee. |

No team goes undefeated. Losses happen.
You think how they performed today was better than the 3 losses? I saw 23+ turnovers, 3 of what 30 from 3? Free throws amateur hour (which will bite them in a playoff series if they don’t clean it up).
Terrible basketball. I’m not looking at opponent or W/L.
The Memphis or OKC games are ones you say ok, not our best but better than losing.
Tonight was embarrassing imo.

41 TOs last 2 games and for some reason AC haw been getting his 4th Q minutes taken by Rondo...I could understand AB or KCP...but not Rondo.
And before you say another ball handler consider we went 1 for 13 to close the game out and at least one of those was a garbage 3 attempt.
Rondo in the 2nd and end of the 3rd/start of the 4th I can live with if he's hitting his 3s...without hitting any 3's he shouldn't play and there's no reason save for a blowout for him to be on the court with under 6 to play.
