Summary
The Lakers suffered another blowout loss on Monday night, falling to the Bulls in a game that saw the defense struggle to contain Chicago's dynamic guards and the offense sputter under the weight of active and creative double teams. Pete, Darius, and Mike discuss the game, highlighting some of the offensive struggles from the game and detailing why they fit into some larger issues on that side of the ball this season. Later, the guys sort through some of the things they'd like to see shift offensively, particularly now that Anthony Davis is playing so many minutes at Center.

Mike is heading out to the road trip. And the Chicago Bulls, DeMar D'Marrozen, Lanzel Ball, and the group took it to the Lakers last night in a game that was never particularly close in what I thought was a revealing loss on a number of levels. |
| 1:01.9 | And, indeed, the last pod of last week was after a Minnesota loss, another blowout loss at home to a Timberwolf's team where we talked about the legs. |
| 1:05.3 | And all those caveats still exist, right? |

| 1:27.4 | with that as well. |
| 1:28.6 | Even with all of that, I'm pretty frustrated about the game yesterday. Where do you stand? |
| 1:33.7 | What's your overview on last night's game? I mean, I'm not really upset about last night's game. |
