LOL, at one point in the game, we were up 85-83 and had only shot 1-16 from the three point line. That was the story of the game right there. Oh, and Sauce Castillo did his Steph Curry impression.

Still too early in the season to bitch about anything....

Will save my yearly Walton criticisms for later in the season.

Yeah, I expect a lot of those open threes to fall Saturday. And nobody expected Stauskas to be on fire from three.

I was on Luke from the tip last night. This will be the year where he proves if he's a real NBA coach or not.

Lakers host rap star Kendrick Lamar as part of 'Genius Series'

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- The day after losing their season opener in Portland, the Los Angeles Lakers gathered in their film room and listened to a Pulitzer Prize winner talk to the team about sacrifice, preparation and releasing negativity.

Kendrick Lamar, the first rapper to win the Pulitzer for music, visited with the Lakers at their team facility on Friday as part of their "Genius Series." General manager Rob Pelinka started it last year when the team invited some of the most successful people in different industries to talk to the team throughout the season.

Lamar was slated to talk to the team last year, but a scheduling conflict delayed it until Friday.

"It's funny 'cause sometimes you don't talk to other people that are at the top of their craft and when you talk to them you see the parallels," Lakers guard Josh Hartsaid. "When he gets ready for a show, he lets all the negativity out. He doesn't party. He doesn't do certain things before shows because he wants to be dialed [in], he wants to be focused for him to get his message across in that show and people who pay money to see him."

Lamar's talk with the Lakers came less than 24 hours after the team's 128-119 loss in Portland and less than 24 hours before LeBron James makes his Staples Center regular-season debut as a Laker against the Houston Rockets on Saturday.

"There's so many parallels between artists like Kendrick in the music industry, actors, stuff like that," Hart added. "Guys that hold him accountable in his own profession whether he's doing a show, whether he's in the booth working on a song, working on an album."

Last season, the Lakers sprinkled in speakers such as actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, Hollywood heavyweight Jeffrey Katzenberg and Olympic and world champion sprinter Allyson Felix to share their secrets to success.

James, who was invited on to the Staples Center concert stage recently at Drake's concert along with rapper Travis Scott, has often surrounded himself with some of the most successful people in the world and enjoys every opportunity he gets to do so.

There is no defending that man's irrational confidence and the antics that come from it. He'll be a regular on Shaqtin.

I do appreciate that he's taken his role as a veteran leader seriously. Him being the one to initially run over and hold BI back shocked and impressed me.
 
Does it make sense to have a lineup where we start Kuzma and BI when his suspension is over?

Kuz played well tonight

Lonzo is getting more aggressive still goes into the lane with no intention of scoring a little too much but he looks better

Lebron has to hit the free throws to end the game, we come out with the W if he knocked those down

If a team has a good big man Lamarcus showed they can exploit that against us the whole damn game

The only way that's feasible is to start BI at the 2. If not you're starting Kuz at center and that's no bueno.
 
I was bout to say he bout to be lebrons new best buddy.. they have good chemistry and he is not afraid to go get his own.. He is confident and feels he is valuable and not to a fault ..
