What do you think about the Laker team now?

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

Just the Lakers.

You're kidding.

That is really a compliment.

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

You don't smile much out there.

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.

And last night, Lakers lost their third straight in a third straight blowout to the Orlando

Magic's kicking off a four-game road trip where it wasn't a blowout at first.

In fact, they were up by nine toward the end of the second quarter and has often been

the case they let go of the rope a ton in the last minute, 90 seconds of the second quarter.

I think it was a two or three-point game at halftime.

And then a decisive third quarter, once again, this has been a theme

a lot for a decent part of this season, is Lakers lose third quarters fairly regularly, and

last night was no exception. Orlando continued the push. Lakers never really got close.

And a few weeks back, we had a pod titled Run or Die.

What I asserted was that in order for the Lakers to play effectively, because they are small,

and a full complement of players, now that everybody is healthy, they play at least half of the game as a small ball group.

You have to play fast.
