    My synopsis
    Smart had an unreal game
    Lebron played well both on offense and defense
    Luka and AR kind of sucked till the 4th when they both woke up

    JJ sucked overall. Yeah he made the corrections finally but come on way too long to use TOs, didn't post up Luka at all till the 4th and stuck with Ayton for way too long.

    Ayton sucked monkey balls IMO. Just cost the Lakers a ton of points with just losing the ball sor slow to react. He's a drop big so the Pelicans killed them on simple pick and pops

    Hayes came in and the game flipped completely. Lakers had a finisher and a big who can play the switch defense they like

    Nice to beat up on the weaker teams in the west with 3 straight. This one was pretty fun especially that 4th quarter run to finish off NO. Sloppy 3rd with the turnovers. We’ll have to play better in the three games coming up v Denver Pacers NY.

    Reaves had the rare off shooting night. LeBron was pretty great especially in the first half with like 18 points 6 for 8 or the likes. Other than the dropped passes I thought Ayton was pretty decent particularly on the boards. But Jax did step up on the D and helped us on our big 20-4 run to seal the game. Jake with some hustle. Kennard with some timely shooting. Luka pretty good but too many turnovers. Rui nonexistent. Smart with some game ball type plays out there.

    Denver up next. We need to bring it.
