Man it's frustrating waiting for this Lakers team to gel because you just know they're gonna with all that talent.

Tough growing pains.

Luke's rotations are still ***. Why you got Rondo out there at the end of the game instead of Ball?

Kuzma's iso game is ***.

Ingram made a case for being a closer tonight.

Luka Doncic has been impressive so far. Obviously it's early in the season but his play is only strengthening his case against all his naysayers (I really want to say I told you so after watching him all this time but gotta see how the season unfolds to be fair)

I didn't see the game, but checking out the scores/stats Rondo put up 13/8 while Ball was 4/1...why wouldn't Rondo be in the game?

I think he's basing his opinion on Ball last few games. Playing youth in my opinion has been better for the team. I think Rondo holds the ball too much for me. Again personal I'd give the keys to Ball. He's the future. And start giving real minutes to the starters players (besides LeBron). Like stick to a freaking line up.

Even with all that. They lost tonight because they couldn't get stops and turned the ball over in clutch time.

I want to clean up what I said about Rondo. It's not that he exactly holds the ball too long. It's his pace of play sometimes. While in Ball the ball is out of his hands before you know it. They play such a different place when he is playing defense and running the show. I'm not crazy about the Ball-Rondo line up either.

It’s a damn shame seeing LeBron suffer out there in LA.

Oh well. 2020 champion Cleveland Cavaliers.

DeRozan with another clutch middy!

Doncic is going to be GOOD though.

Good to see Frank getting more confident in his shot. Dude is pulling up off the dribble, a far cry from being scared to spot up last year. Excited to see what's to come from the French Prince.

Who here said Doncic wouldn't be good? Unless you mean you want to call into Atlanta or Sacramento.

Pretty much what Jeebs said. Ball plays faster and is a better defender. He moves the ball more and just looked really good when he wasn't sharing time with Rondo.

After reading comments from Lakers fans about Luke's rotations and how they've been an issue every year now, I'm starting to get worried for his job security.

But at the same time, it's just growing pains. Every single Lakers lost has been competitive, they haven't been blown out at all yet. So it's more time together I feel like they'll learn how to close out games.

LeBron looks like he's starting LeDecline though. There's just something off about him and I'm not quite sure what it is. He's definitely not as explosive as he used to be but it looks even more noticeable this year, maybe that's just because he's playing next to so much speed now
