“It’s all about sustainability. It doesn’t matter what you can do throughout the first 47½ minutes. You got to close the game, which we didn’t do. We got to do a better job of that.” – LeBron Jameshttps://t.co/0h0uNC4wQ9 — The Lakers Review (@TheLakersReview) April 24, 2024 As the Lakers were rolling through the final third of the NBA season, their identity complete with Rui Hachimura in the starting lineup and their offense humming, a trend was quietly developing. The Lakers, over those 32 games with Hachimura cemented as a starter, were the second-best offense in the NBA in the first half ..read more

Rewatched the fourth quarter and to be honest the game was a legitimate classic. Great plays by one team matched by great plays by the other team. Superstars making superstar plays. Except for Anthony Davis, whom Ham and LeBron seemed to completely forget about. Jamal Murray! https://t.co/Q6KFb4QZom — LakerTom (@LakerTom) April 25, 2024 ..read more

Lakers are immediately turning their focus to Game 3 after gut-punch Game 2 loss to Nuggets https://t.co/j10jDvDYDj — LakerTom (@LakerTom) April 24, 2024 There isn’t any quick way to recover from a loss as demoralizing as the one the Lakers suffered on Monday. After looking on the brink of snapping their nine-game losing streak to the Nuggets and, more importantly, evening the series at 1-1, the Lakers collapsed in the fourth quarter and Jamal Murray delivered a buzzer-beating dagger to the heart.

While last night’s discouraging loss to the Nuggets was the Lakers’ 10th straight in row, this was not only the closest game but also the first time the Lakers showcased their new 3-point prowess and almost won the game. Headed back home to L.A., there’s no reason to believe the Lakers will be anything but greatly encouraged at how they shot the ball and competed last night. If anyt ..read more
