Austin Reeves once again takes up the slack from a Luka absence due to childbirth. Bron makes the right play and finds Luka in the corner for the game winning 3. Nick the quick brought instant offense, Adou progressed, and Jake had a good night.

The Lakers avoided a trap and pretty much beat down the injury-plagued Pelicans in the first half. Austin is crazy good. Ayton really is that dude. Luke scored 34 while bored. Missing Bron and Smart, we played on to victory.

Lakers beat the better-than-advertised Mavericks. The big 3, on an efficient night from Bron, were lead in scoring by Hillbilly Kobe. Ayton continues to impress, and the bench, lead by the highly professional Gabe, is showing an awareness of what the Lakers are doing.

The Clippers are a horrible team and thank goodness we beat the snot out of them again. Luka is happy here. Bron is still amazing and adapting his game to make this work. This offense is unstoppable. To get past OKC, we need to figure out how to play better D for entire games, but we DO figure it out in spurts.

We barely beat the lowly Jazz. Take away Maxi Kleber's energetic 13 minutes and we lose this game. Still, we'll take the win. The Jazz are just weird. Lakers fans: watch Gabe play D against bigs!!

The Lakers get a win against a lesser team. In Bron and Gabe's first game back, the Lakers adjusted to the presence of the King, while Ayton showed off his exquisitely efficient big man game.

The Lakers secure a robust victory against an eastern threat. Jake goes 1-10 with a +/-26, highest on the team. Luka just casually ended up with 41- 9 - 6, Austin was Austin again, and DA continues to dispel the notion that he isn't any good. He is EXTREMELY good. We had an Adou Thiero siting, and he looked as good as promised phyically, and showed off his hops on a dunk from a Bronny assist. This Lakers team is fun to watch.

The Lakers got back to their winning ways with a nearly end-to-end beatdown of a diminished team without their stars. Austin got back on track, Rui was solid, Ayton played well, Jake played great D, and Luka was Luka.

The Lakers got their tails whipped by the dominant OKC Thunder. No one had a good game. Moving on.

The Lakers return to their winning ways. Austin and Luka have a bromance going, Rui and Ayton light it up, and after turning up the D in Q3 (thanks Marcus Smart!... 7 steals!!), the Lakers cruised to victory.
