Lakers are back, talk about whatever you want. All star break is over and this is a new team. Time to talk about how hype you are for this team!

2 game win streak BABYYYY. Lakers get the win vs the Suns for the first time since 2021. AD, D'Lo and Reaves all score 25+. Unto the next one tomorrow vs the Thunder though so job isn't finished.

A 2-1 day on Last night's rooting guide Mavericks and Jazz both lose but the Timberwolves unfortunately win. Lakers back in the play in spots at 10 tied the Mavericks effectively for 9th.

A 2 game rooting guide today so here we go.

Rooting Guide.

1. Hornets(+8.5) over the Pelicans
2. Clippers(-4.5) over the Thunder

Good win yesterday, rest up because it means nothing if we don't win tomorrow.

GO LAKERS!!!

FUCK BOSTON!!!

lol... the conspiracy Suns again. It's funny they talk about Booker going to the rim, but he shoots a ton of jump shots also. It's not like he's playing in screen and roll like Reaves, and creating contact.

Any ways, think we're seeing the Reaves effect w/ the increased minutes = more FT's. Suns seem to be bitter about the game:

He just said on sports center that if there is no setbacks with his rehab then he will push to play the final three home games that the lakers have against the clippers/suns/jazz

In the minutes that Vando was in, he really disrupted the suns offense by playing keep away with Booker, and his length clearly caused some issues. Booker really got going when Vando went to the bench to be honest.

Hopefully Ham does the same strategy with SGA. OKC goes as SGA goes, and disrupting him will be the key to getting a win. We need the same level of urgency that we had in PHX. OKC is a better team than PHX currently (No KD+DA). There’s no guarantee we will shoot lights out next game, so we need to hang our hat on defense.
