| I was quite baffled to see some people in this thread guaranteeing an easy win before the game. Just because they finally got a win against a contender doesn't mean they've righted the ship. |

| Can’t believe I stuck up for Vogel on a couple of occasions this year, playing Ariza over Johnson is criminal.. bye... |

| Very curious to know why Vogel decided to start Ariza while going big? Monk has been far less effective now because his minutes are up and down. |

That 4th quarter run by the Pacers was mind numbing to watch because it screamed for the Lakers to do something other than...put in Melo. I'm befuddled by that.
Dwight / Stan better options. Stop the bleeding and score after stops. The Pacers were drilling shot after shot while Lakers went cold, and even when the Lakers started scoring, they could not stop the Pacers...so, the answer was to...put in more offense?

BGJ just flat out said "maybe they don't want it"
Chris McGee is out of words as well.
Horry says they don't know what it means to be a Laker.
Sad. |

Honestly Rambis is probably the perfect fit for this roster (not in a good way). |

it may energize them to put out energy against a few teams they normally don’t respect like the Pacers but it will wane with this Frankenstein lineup. |

Nothing.
There's nothing to do about it now, that would only add more chaos. It's not like there's anyone good available that's why I guess Rambis is rumored to be in the mix. We might as well let it ride until the off-season. |

There was no point to bring in melo for offense because they just give lebron the ball and watch him Brick the 3 anyways. The rebounds and open 3s we gave up was not even worth it. We lost because levert got hot, either reaves or Stanley should’ve been guarding him |

Not many options, but Melo to close out the game knowing you need stops...

I hope they fire Vogel so the organization can finally see it wasn't the coach after all.

The goal of someone in the Lakers FO apparently, with all this chatter the past 24 hours.
Team /FO went from being a crap show pooped on by talking heads and media to being champs and shutting everyone up and is now right back in the target sights of being pooped on again just 2 years later.

| All this negativity they are getting is going to energize them for a couple of games and then they will do the same (bleep) again and lose to these sorry ass teams. These guys are frauds. Then they're going to blame not having guys and the changing line ups this and that. I'm sick of it. Rest of the NBA is going through it as well, not just them... |

Maybe that's why Vogel is going YOLO and just doing what he wants. Lol. |
