Vandy so good.
His energy is amazing.
Only 26 min 14/17 4 STL
Insane impact on the game

Yeah we definitely need someone like him. When I saw what he and Beasley got traded for. I knew lakers would be better with them.

What the lakers do NOT have is depth at the 5…
They will get destroyed if a team can take advantage of the lack of depth there.
Like in past seasons they had javale/Dwight etc… just to be a Presence for a handful of mins per game… I don’t think Mo is old enough or seasoned enough to add that “dog” like role they need from a backup big guy. It showed against DAL as the lakers rotation went small and only played 7 guys really

@Memphis will be another high “playoff intensity” type game, will be interesting to see if they can play up to that level in what 48 hours?

Longhorn u almost called this from the start.

I just wanted to say to FU to Utah. For giving the Lakers new life. I hope Utah sucks for a few decades

We keep making excuses but the bottom line is they keep winning and we keep losing. It’s amazing how bad we suck right now.

For the f'ing Lakers!
Y'all really think that Davis and LeBron are going to stay healthy the rest of the season? O ye of little faith.

You think the Pels are going to get healthy?
I had faith, but the Lakers rise from damn near last and the Pels fall from first is painful to watch.

You never know about a serious injury, but you can bet that Lebron and AD will play through any nagging injuries that would otherwise sideline our players for two weeks

James said he heard something pop last night. He might be down awhile..

It's basketball...
It's up and down, and in todays NBA the predictability is tough, but at the same time you can get a temperature for what is coming...
For the Lakers it's all surrounding the 2 stars. If they are on the court, the support around them "works"... They have what it takes to make a nice run....does LeBron or AD have the IT factor right now currently to propel this to a championship caliber level, I'm not currently seeing it... it truly looks like a 2nd round playoff loss type situation, but who knows... maybe there's some more special juice left in the tank that those guys are saving up in Hollywood.

For the Pels, it's just a mess..
last year celebrated a sub .500 team that was 10 games under.... in a time when the West was weird...
The youth of the franchise was able to get GREAT run without the "stars" around.... and they showed how "deep" the team could be...but at the same time those same mins and time they get on the court aren't the same once the "stars" are taking those shots and opps and those young guys are deferring to the guys on the court... There's still opp for some of these guys to gel and work but I also think that it would be smart to move some guys to gain some vet stars....similar to the CJ situation.
Still time to get hot again like last year during the last leg of the season, but the SPARK needs to happen within the 1st week of March.... because they are sliding fast and the environment is not great right now.

The limp LeBron had leaving the arena last night was pretty bad.. I would say if it was maybe December or early January he would likely rest and recover... but given the "playoff push"... I think he may just play through it.
I don't think its ankle related even if thats what the media runs with... I think its the foot issue. Whatever they had said he's been playing through... I think he re-aggravated it worse.

Lebron OUT tomorrow

Sources: There's fear Lakers star LeBron James is likely to miss an extended period of time with his right foot injury. James suffered the injury in Sunday's win over Dallas, played through it, and belief is he will be sidelined an indefinite amount.
