Wes Matthews played horrible, but he wasnt even in in the last stretch and OT. Gasol was terrible on on D, but other than that, he played how I expect him to play. Lebron took some horrible shots down the stretch, turned the ball over multiple times, missed that crucial free throw...and did that weak ass foul on Westbrook that cost us an And 1. Sorry. I'm just calling it how I see it.

If other players contributed a little more we would've won the game by 10-15 pts.

Our starting SG in 26 minutes had 0 pts on 0 for 3 shooting....Gasol has been trash all season long........Lebron would have more gas in his tank if he didn't have to lead the team in pts,reb,asst and facilitate the offense....He can't do everything at his age.

Lebron can't do everything at 36 yrs old...If other players contributed a little more we would've won the game by 10-15 pts.

get off Lebron dikk. We know Bron is the leader. Regardless of the reason why...he didn't play well down the stretch. It's OK to admit it. I'm not Skip Bayless. I'm not trying to hold it against his legacy. I'm a mad Lakers fan who is being honest.

I always call Lebron out when he doesn't play well...Didn't I say "Lebron didn't play his best game".........You're the one overreacting by saying ..."Lebron cost us the game"............Lebron contributed to the loss but you can't put this loss solely on him when his teammates are missing wide-open shots and the starting sg scored 0 pts in 26 minutes.

And yeah, Lebron missed 1 ft at the end of the 4th, but Gasol missed 2 ft with 2 minutes left in the 4th.

They had a spot open already...now 2
that spot was hard capped so we couldn't sign anyone till a specific date + Cook was most likely getting waived because Thursday is the final date to guarantee a contract

If the Lakers get another interior presence then their defense will be even better and I think they can live with either Schroder,Kuz, or Trez as the third option.
TBH I never understood the Trez or Gasol pickups. Gasol was washed last year and Trez just seemed like a sore you to the Clippers. He solid offensively but he a step-down from even just Javale and he was dumb as shyt sometimes. Running back last years team with Schroder would have been perfect.
