The word is out and teams are sending extra players at the glass when playing the Lakers, knowing LA is going to give them tons of offensive rebounds

Trading away KCP and letting Alex Caruso walk cost the Lakers another championship imo

A fully healthy Lakers side probably runs a 10-man rotation. 40% of that rotation is out tonight and that’s WITH the Lakers getting Rui back today.

Nothing to say about the Lakers. Sometimes you just gotta take the L and wonder what the fuck happened.

Lakers are now 3-5 LMAOOOO imagine losing to the Rockets https://t.co/i6nkmub7Y4

Lakers are 3-5, yes. But half of our players are injured and remember that we started 2-10 last year and still made the WCF.
