Summary
Down four rotation players, the Lakers came back from another big first half deficit to take a late game lead vs. the Clippers, nearly gave it away at the end, but then held on in overtime to get the victory. Pete and Darius discuss the up, down, and up again nature of the game, highlighting LeBron's great scoring night, another impressive AD performance, a 2nd half offense surge from the guards, going big defensively (and then later not) and why that mattered, and much more. And then later, the guys discuss Austin Reaves finally finding his rhythm and the adjustments made that helped him do it.

| 0:00.0 | What do you think about the Laker team now? |
| 0:03.4 | 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 bar show because once the game starts, you have a game face. |
| 0:17.8 | You don't smile much out there. |
| 0:20.4 | I don't think you have to do things for money anymore. |
| 0:22.9 | Correct. |
| 0:23.6 | What's up, Laker fans? Welcome to the Laker Film Room podcast. I'm Pete, joined by Darius. |
| 0:28.0 | And a fun night in downtown Los Angeles last night. Never a dull moment. A test of the Lakers' depth. |
| 0:34.5 | Lakers were without four rotational players. Gabe Vincent was out, |
| 0:39.1 | Rui was out, along with Bando, of course, and then Tori and Prince was a late scratch. So a great |
| 0:44.5 | test of the Lakers' depth. And the first quarter was much like many of the other first |
| 0:49.6 | quarters so far this season. Lakers go down by as many as 19 as Kauai Leonard has a huge quarter, |
| 0:56.1 | scoring 18 points. And Lakers kind of tread water throughout the second quarter going to halftime |
| 1:02.0 | down 61 to 48. By the end of the game, Lakers would have 130 points. And in the third quarter, |
| 1:10.1 | the thing that I thought really turned the game around was with |
| 1:13.2 | 422 left, Cam Reddish subbed out for Jackson Hayes. Hayes came into the game, giving the |
| 1:19.7 | Lakers a very rare look. I'm doing an LFR video on it right now of a three big man front court |
| 1:25.8 | D of Hayes, Christian Wood, and Anthony Davis, |
| 1:29.7 | and it totally flipped the game, right? |
