[Malik Hairston]

Would Terrence Jones be the best player for the Lakers, tbh?..

Howard is Slingblade of the NBA

[scanry]

how much they paying lin again? im pretty sure they couldve picked someone cheaper if they just need someone to bring the ball up and pass to kobe.

$101062 short of $15 mil tbh.

[Chomag]

Do Lakers really only have 5 3pt attempts? I think just 1 Rocket has as many alone

[RD2191]

Yes

[Malik Hairston]

Those food stamps, tbh..

[KaiRMD1]

Laker fans just found a new stat to keep Kobe above Duncan

[RD2191]

Rofl Kirby

[DPG21920]

this LA defense is delicious

[Venti Quattro]

Harden is absolutely torching the Lakers

[DPG21920]

Nick Young laughing because there is no pressure to win in LA and he can act like an idiot while his GF is getting banged out by rappers

[DMC]

Rockets with a 124pt pace... vs Lakers 90

[Calispursfan11]

They need Swaggy P back pronto.

[Raven]

a healthy -17 at half time ... hard nosed 62 points allowed at half

[Mugen]

They need Swaggy P back pronto.

For what? That is garbage tbh

He'd actually do better in that other LA ball club.

I parlayed Mavs +8 and Rockets -3.5..I only bet 1 unit because I don't like betting on NBA games so early unless they're obvious outcomes..

Should have stuck with the instincts..I recommend betting against the Lakers every game until Vegas adjusts their number, they're going to be the 2nd worst team in the NBA, tbh(behind the tanking 6ers)..

[DPG21920]

it's going to be hilarous to see people defending Byron over Dan when they win less this year with bigger names

[Mugen]

For our entertainment.

You already get that when he's yuckin' it up in a suit while his team is down by 17 tbh

How on Earth were the new look Mavs playing against the Spurs sans 2 starters and a great bench player end up +8

[ElNono]

So, I can't think Kirby is going to go 82 games with this .... how many games until his publicist starts the "he's playing injured" rumor?

[Malik Hairston]

You could make the argument that the Lakers' have the worst roster for a non-tanking West team in the past 10+ years, tbh..

- No top 40 player on the roster
- Even if you want to believe Kobe is still a top option, they don't have a legit #2/3/4 guy on the roster
- Atrocious frontcourt on both ends of the floor
- No perimeter shooting
- No perimeter defense
- Arguably the worst coach in the NBA

This is honestly one of the worst rosters in the history of the league, tbh..don't even know how that's possible just 4 years after winning a championship, without having any players retire..

They were +4 and the Rockets were -7.5, I teased them(so I get 4 points on both sides)..
