D-Lo. He's a liability on defense and on offense he makes too many bonehead plays. Our overall problem is guard play.

[@carrastealth]

He had 5 assists and 0 turnovers. You see how terrible the team looks when he isn't out there and Gabe is running the point?

[@justacryptocat]

@@carrastealth He also shot 2/7 from the field (38% for the season) and missed all his threes. Not to mention he was getting cooked the whole time like he always does. If he's not scoring he's a liability. I agree we don't have much of an alternative though.

[@surefire2471]

Look at the stats again. Dlo was 2 for 7 but 6 of 6 on free throws for total of 10 points on 7 shots, 5 assists, 0 turnovers and plus minus of -8.Not bad considering he was game time decision with back injury. Not let's look at Reeves who shot 2 of 6, 7pts, -14 plus minus, 3 assists, 4 turnovers. Gabe Vincent shot 2 of 5 for 5 pts, 0 assists, 1 turnover and -10 plus minus in only 16 minutes. Even LeBron with 3 assists and 6 turnovers. Reeves and LeBron 10 turnovers killed the Lakers. Reeves and Vincent running around on defense doing cardio got you tricked thinking they're good defenders simply because they get low in their defensive stance. When Dlo was out, Cleveland destroyed the Lakers defense even worse than when Dlo was in. Don't believe me, the stats are all right there.

It is still early in the season. Even the Denver Nuggets was blown out by the Thunder. Remember we beat 3 quality teams a playoff team. Never I'd imagined the Lakers will go to 3-0 in the first three games. So the Lakers found right coach for them. It is up to the players now if they follow and implement the gameplan Coach JJ and the coaching staff preach. The last game Suns beat the Lakers by 4 points it was a moral victory. Now the lakers blown out by an eastern conference playoff team. Losing is part of the game. You must all remember that. There is no such thing as 82-0 record. There come a time in a season where you lose by few points or get blown out by huge points. Fans are so overreacting not realizing that this is an 82 game season and the season just started. Remember other good teams were also losing or get blown out by other good or by other bad teams. Its all part of the game.

[@21Kolb]

I was legit afraid of the defense especially the backcourt. You wont go very far when your opponent is backcourt heavy and you team has a defensive issue with the backcourt itself. If a team is smart and well coached, they will see through the glaring weaknesses of the team on both ends of the court. Lakers are extremely limited defensively because DLo can’t hold his own defensively and AR is average at best defensively. I know its early. However, getting all the kinks out now will strengthen us down the line. We have to see improvements on the defensive end.

[@DaygoP]

I was against "The Bronny Experiment". I don't think he deserves it based purely on his weak game. He needs to develop. But I was unsure about the hiring of JJ. I like the move so far. He's still in touch, he hooped before, and his disposition seems appropriate.

[@21Kolb]

Its going to be a long process for JJ He’s still learning and this team is getting used to his style, however we have to stay consistent and play fundamental basketball on both ends. Effort should not be a question when it comes to this team.
