    His playing style remind me of Ricky "Mr. Steal Your Girl" Rubio, when he first arrived from Europe. Flashy passing but the shot isn't there. Team was too pumped which lead to nervousness. They'll be good in the long run.

    People's expectations are based on media hype (and his dad ) he only avg like 14pts in college. It wasn't uncommon for him to not reach the teens in pts. He will be fine and will snag a few triple doubles before the season is over.

    Lavar is a snowflake, he already is in a war of words with Patrick Beverley.

    The NBA/MLB/NFL is not about rings, it is about money. It is a business, period.

    You criticize people for overreacting for his poor performance vs elite defender Beverley, but now you're talking him up because he had a good one vs a lame Bledsoe and a flaky Suns team? Irony?

    Nope, talking him up because you guys are pure haters who always have alternative reasons for hating and try to hide behind those reasons by focusing on nothing burgers. He's gonna be just fine live with it.

    Of course it's ironic, it's meant to be. It's an over the top reaction meant to illustrate that a season is not played in one game. A career is not made in a season. The same people who were killing him after one game should be in here sucking his dickk, but of course they are not.

    The kid looked good tonight, but honestly that was probably the worst defensive team I've ever seen.

    Even Ingram had 25 points, and Jake wants to get rid of him.

    Thats cool, you may be right on the sucking for a couple years, they may need some vets on the team and some rebounding and defensive hustle guys.

    If Ingram fixes that haircut I might reconsider.

    Jake, I just want these guys to be good. How come Randle, the other guy you hate, is hardly playing? Is he hurt?

    Not sure. Maybe he just sucks and Luke played Kuzma and Nance in front of him.

    Nance compliments Lopez better because of his defensive ability. Then Kuzma is their best player. So Randle is relegated to backup centre.

    Bogut is also the backup centre. I like Randle. He has potential to be useful.

    I don't think so. Luke and Randle are like buddy buddy. He wouldn't bench him. I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with him. With that said, it's weird that he would be playing at all, so who knows. When is your first South Bay game? Where do they play? I can't imagine how much fun you must have with dozens of crazy fans in attendance.

    This looked like a straight college game tonight

    Only a few grown men on the court

    Not surprised ball dominated

    Gonna be an all star down the line but his dad is a clown if he thinks he's gonna go down as a laker legend.

    I would point out it is against the worst NBA team, but then again he basically put up 30/10/10 in a regular season game which is VERY impressive.

    Maybe there's already a deal for him in the works???


    The regular season starts in November for them and they play at the new UCLA Health facility in El Segundo. That's the new base of Lakers operations. One of the perks for getting the tickets was that last season I got 2 tickets to Lakers/Pelicans. We had food and drinks in the Chairman's room, watched the game from the Buss family suite, hung out with the players, etc etc. It was super cool for my son who now thinks that all Lakers games should be watched in that fashion.

    I'll hold up a sign at one of the games for you. You can't miss me.
