When James was asked how a team should respond to a blowout like the Lakers suffered in Philadelphia, he offered a personal admission instead of any group instruction.
“I don’t know how a team [should],” he said. “I can only speak for myself. … I don’t like it.”
LeBron is going to be fine when it matters, what concerns me is the fact I absolutely share the perception “there was a shared sentiment that what L.A. mustered Monday was simply not good enough”.
When we lost to Denver it was clear for me we needed another starting PG and a backup C able to anchor the defense and Pelinka didn’t address that and my perception hasn’t changed.
Another thing I’m pointing since the off season is the fact Pelinka didn’t sign a replacement for Beasley/Lonnie and I hear “but those guys barely played”. I’m not telling we need a replacement for the “no show” Beasley or Lonnie, I’m telling what those guys represent in terms of production when they are at their best, a quick scoring punch of the bench and I don’t think Reaves is this type of player.
Lakers ruining the tail end of his career
Def the Lakers and not any injury bug plaguing us
Lose by 50 or lose by 1 a loss is a loss.
