Summary

The shorthanded Lakers lost a frustrating game to the Nets on Monday, struggling to score and execute offensively vs. a physical and aggressive Brooklyn group. Pete and Darius break down the game, the missed opportunity of getting a winnable game while missing so many players, the execution issues vs. the Nets' traps and switching, and much more. And then later, the guys discuss the ongoing offensive challenges and the need to refine their approach vs. the aggressive defenses the Lakers are facing.

What do you think about the Laker team now?

0:03.5

Do you follow the box scores of the games every day?

0:06.0

Just the Lakers.

0:07.3

You're kidding.

0:08.6

That is really a compliment.

0:12.8

I was pleased to see you smile at the top part show because once the game starts, you have a game face.

0:17.7

You don't smile much out there.

0:20.4

I don't think you have to do things for money anymore. Correct.

What's up, Laker fans? Welcome to the Laker Film Room podcast. I'm Pete, joined by Darius. D, you ended

0:29.6

yesterday's pod with a passionate monologue about how despite all of the injuries the Lakers had,

0:35.1

they had more than enough to win the game tonight and go out and do it, damn it,

0:38.6

had me all fired up and watched the game last night, and you were right.

0:42.3

They did have enough to win the game, but they didn't.

0:45.4

Tough to lose a game where Jordan Goodwin and Gabe Vincent combined for 11 threes made in Brooklyn,

a team that had lost, I think, seven in a row, But they did. Luca and Austin combined to go 11 for 40 from the field. The Lakers' centers were a disaster.

I don't know if you ever have these where it's like, that's enough Lakers for me tonight. We're like right after the game. It's like turn off the TV, no post game, any of that. I have about five of those a year and this was one of them, man. Talk to me about a bad night in Brooklyn. Yeah, my impassioned plea fell on deaf ears. What I will say is that JJ Redick agreed. And he seemed particularly frustrated with the approach that his team took

1:51.2

translation, the first place that you should look is the communicator, not the people who are

listening. For all the stuff that we talked about last year, a comment like that is something

that we did not hear maybe a single time
