    We used real nba lineups, put our first wing stopper in 2 seasons on their best player, and blew them out. Who would’ve thought it

  2. Bron played less than 30 mins and we won relatively comfortably lmao

  3. xmrjaredx

    Lebron and AD both played under 30 minutes tonight in a blowout.

    Honestly… how did we get DLo, Beasley AND Vanderbilt. Dude Vanderbilt is so freaking good man.

    My only nitpick is that Beasley has to work harder to not get switched onto BI. Near the end of the game when it looked like the game was almost put away he just started getting lazy.

    Great game all around honestly. Feels like everybody played well, and Ham had nice rotations and good plays drawn up too! Credit to everybody tonight, let’s go for that play-in push post ASB 💪💪

  6. adam_smith321

    This team is so much better with LeBron James

  7. _monsterpoon

    Bron only put up 14 shots and Lakers blew out NOLA!! D’lo talk your shit too, “like I never left” !!!

  8. OnRedditSometimes

    Ya’ll see AD going and thanking Rob for finally getting some talent on this team? 💀

  9. thousandtokens

    Lakers basketball is fun again! Also welcome to the Lakers, D-Lo.

    playoff run loading….

  10. SkyHiighGroundLow

    Some game notes I noticed watching.

    First and foremost give it up for ham. Not only did he play the starting lineup everyone on this sub wanted, he made some smart rotations with the bench. Not playing Lonnie is smart as he doesn’t really fit with the team and using guys like rui and tbj with more size is good.

    Vanderbilt is going to be huge if the lakers can make the playoffs. Having a lockdown wing defender for guys like luka, kd, kawhi ect will be huge.

    D lo looked great. His calm and under control game was much needed after the Westbrook years. Not to mention the gravity him and Beasley have. Teams can’t camp in the lane anymore.

    Bamba started rough but really gave some great minutes in the third. Great rim protection and his three will fall eventually. Needs to keep shooting them. Perfect stretch big for lebron.

    Overall I love the changes and I think the lakers can make a run and possibly go 18-6 the rest of the way. 6 seed incoming??! Go lakers!

  11. MagicalOak

    Welcome Back Home D’Angelo (He makes the games fun to watch)!

  12. Lakers blowout win and Lebron/AD only had to play 30 minutes. Am I dreaming?

  13. winter-r0se

    dlo is Really good.. patient, not a turnover machine, elite shooter, great playmaker. love to see it!! no more bricks or midgets!!!! i could cry

    only criticism.. the entire team needs to practice freethrows

  14. Luvsicpt2

    That 20+ with 7 assist from Dlo IS EXACTLY what westbrook needed to do!
    So refreshing man

  15. First game in a long time where I felt like the Lakers were in control the whole time. What an enjoyable game to watch after so long.

  16. ChillClinton904

    I know I might be overreacting here. But you bring Bamba, DLO & Vando back next year on extensions

  17. Dlo is having a blast playing with Bron and AD, it’s so clear to see

  18. chandlerossjoey

    I missed DLo heat checks. He really said “Like I never left.” Fun times ahead if the Lakers continue to play well!

    Thoughts:

    – Great starting five by Darvin Ham. I hope that’s the lineup that sticks when LeBron plays
    – VANDO IS AMAZING WTF
    – MO BAMBA IS TALL AF. Need him and his defense night in and night out. He needs to learn to stop fouling tho.
    – Beasley took good shots. Some just didn’t fall. He’ll be better than tonight.
    – AD seems like himself again. Glad he got out of the funk he had been in!
    – They need to make 1000 FTs every practice. So many missed FTs tonight. Shouldn’t happen every game
    – TIME TO START A WINNING STREAK!!! WE BACK BABY
