And then you add having at least 2-5 rotation players out the entire season. Honestly, this is why I’m not disappointed at 11-9.

It is amazing how every time you look at the schedule and see who the lakers are playing, they are more often than not at a rest disadvantage, which is magnified even further by having the best player in his 21st season.

Tbh. I don’t really care a lot about results this early in the season. I am fine with team losing.
My worry is, there is ZERO offensive identity of this team other than LeBron & Inshallah.
The defensive schemes that have been implemented by the coaching staff have been head scratching and downright garbage in some games like the Philly one.
The lack of identity is my biggest issue. Because I always feel early in the season, process matters more than the results. Because it shows whether it’s sustainable or not. And Lakers have been underwhelming at both offense and defense. At least with guys like Vando, Gabe and Cam etc back, the team will find its defensive intensity and hustle etc. But the offense?

championship teams don’t need excuses, but we just don’t look like a championship team

I feel like we’ve had a back to back every week for the whole season up to this point

The league’s sending the Lakers a message.

i’m not really bothered by our record. I just don’t like seeing the team go down 20pts every other game lol

Why did we play 20 games and the rockets played only 16?
