This win annoys me mostly because we won due to how poorly the Lakers played
That's kind of the feeling I had this morning. The Laker's defense was a potent combination of lack of ability and lack of effort. It was nice to see our guys play well, but it was just too easy. It sucks, for the Tank's sake, that the Lakers decide to have their worst defensive effort in weeks against us.
 
Can’t say I watched and though I want/need us to lose every game… it’s the Lakers. I don’t care what it looked like. It’s hard to be upset when the Lakers lose.
 
Can anyone post the video of the Zanick interview when he says him and other executives called Luka "a gift to the lakers" dude looked so furious when he said it. Then he had to go pay some lip service to Nico/Mavs FO so it didnt seem like he was calling them stupid lmao.
 
btw its nice to see lauri shoot well again. And that 3 dribbles before launching a 3 was new to me. He always catch and shoot
 
It's shocking how much Luka looks like just a guy when he's suddenly on a team that wasn't built around him. Almost seems like he doesn't even know how to function.

Doncic was coddled from Day 1 in Dallas and it's showing. He can literally only play one type of basketball and I'm not sure he has the motivation to learn anything new at this point in his career.

Everything about him screams "Now I REALLY don't give a **** anymore".
 
I think he was talking about New Orleans screwing things up once more.
I looked at the exchange again. I think you are correct.
 
The Lakers ruined Luka. WTF.
I mean, he was out for a number of weeks and looks a bit rusty. I do think that LeBron and Luka both excel with the ball in their hands. The Lakers should stagger their minutes having one on the court as much as possible. I think once Luka integrates and gets his game legs back they'll look a lot better. The Lakers need a better center for sure though. Len is not going to help them.

Hopefully it is a disaster and the team implodes. :)

I think that was in the game when he joined Boler and Thurl in the broadcast booth... maybe?
