That’s why they make the trade. Only a sophomore in the league, just needs a little time with the shot whisperer, Hornacek.

I must admit I never felt bad for Westbrick.

You know what? The Lakers are not very good
The thunder would never do that trade. They love Giddey and there is no doubt in my mind he will end up being a solid 3pt shooter in the near future.

Nah. He did it to himself. Gets way too involved in personnel decisions and then pouts and throws others under the bus when they don't work.
Could’ve held onto their young role players instead of trying to create a “Big 3” like he had in Miami so he pushed for Westbrook instead of Hield. Then when it was clearly broken, they thought they’d just double down on that. It’s enjoyable to see it backfire on them.
Imagine if they’d just agreed to trade their picks and had gotten in on the Gobert trade for parts and pieces - bet they could’ve gotten Vando, Beasley, Beverley, Clarkson and Bogdanovic for THT, the right to cut Russell Westbrook and draft capital.
At that moment in time, I bet they could’ve bought super low. Glad they passed. This team is fun to watch and root for.

What is a simple definition of jazz?
Definition of jazz
American music developed especially from ragtime and blues and characterized by propulsive syncopated rhythms, polyphonic ensemble playing, varying degrees of improvisation, and often deliberate distortions of pitch and timbre.

Uh. So far the definition is true, real, meaningful, and fitting. By eye test.

I love what Steve Smith said in Gametime: "I know Lakers fans don't want to hear this, but thry played a good brand of basketball tonight."
I love it. I was worried we win and they shoot like crap, so the excuse is there. They shot 48/42/89 as a team and still lost.
Lots of talk about us now. We have been noticed.

At this point, I’m curious to see the Jazz add any overlooked or under utilized young player to see what Hardy can do with them. I think he has absolutely MAXIMIZED the talent and skill set for Markkanen, Clarkson, Vando, Olynyk and Kessler - and gotten great play out of Conley, Sexton, Beasley and even THT (at times).
I want to see what other tricks he has up his sleeve AND I want to see what he can do with this rag-tag group in the playoffs.
This is the only game I've watched the Lakers this year, but it made me think that their problem has less to do with bad role players and more to do with declining stars.
The Conley/Lauri connection has been great so far, Mike with so many brilliant plays this year. We have so many great scorers on this team. Hardy seems to have a great feel for the game. Definitely a fun start to the season.

They couldnt keep up with our pace. And they didnt dominate 1on1. We held our ground, and "only" allowed 116 to a team who had a their best shooting night. Won through extra boards and 2nd chance points.
