I would counter with who have been the opponents?

Team has shown they beat the avg to bad teams. The problem is the good to great teams


In that span, with that lineup, the Lakers beat the

1. Wizards (Bad team)
2. Clippers (number 4 seed)
3. Spurs (bad team)
4. Jazz (below average team)
5. Pistons (bad team)
6. Pelicans (number 6 seed)
7. Hornets (bad team)
8. Knicks (number 4 seed)


That's three playoff teams, two of whom are in our conference. In the game Bron didn't play vs the Celtics, they beat the number 1 seed overall.

Team seems to have turned a corner. Perhaps that was simply believing in D'Lo more. Whatever the case may be, you play the guys in front of you.

Last year, this team went on exactly zero streaks like this, with any lineup. Improvement is improvement :salute:

Lakers haven't had one good win.

Knicks have won 3 of their last 11 games and were without OG, Bog and Randle.

Clippers were without PG and Zubac.

It's almost like those all went into the "W" column :patrice:


Pop quiz: would the Lakers have won those games last year?

Love the idea again of putting Rui on Jokic. Makes it easier for the defense to collapse on him when they need to. Turn Jokic into a scorer backing down in the paint instead of creating and shooting from the outside

It's a guaranteed basket for Jokic. Truth is we have no one on the roster that can guard him.
