Bronny didn’t even try going for it. Geez.

So happy we can turn to Grayson’s fat ass when Beal fucking sucks.

Reggie Miller constantly defending this bum Bronny is hilarious. He stinks.

Was hoping to call it an early not. Guess not.

These refs want to go home.

Make Knecht pass the ball

Ugh. Oh well.

Turns out Ryan Dunn fouling out was the game…he would’ve shut Knecht down

Hope you guys are ready to hear about how Knecht is the best thing ever for the next week.

Happy we played the starters as much as we did. Going to have a week off so a little dress rehearsal is good.

Nurkic looks much better in whatever role this is minus still not much touch directly under the basket still. Positive game for him though.

Beal had one of those TWolves series kind of games. I think he'll be fine.

Learning moment for Dunn tonight. He'll be just fine. He may end up taking Royces minutes this season.

Bol had a tough preseason. Starting to think his ceiling is just an occasional flash of brilliance sprinkled in between head scratching and lackluster performances. I say it because he's had a million different coaches and doesn't seem to fit into anyone's system.

Love the stability Jones and Morris bring at PG.

We probably win the game if Bud keeps the starters in but they were also without LBJ. Thought Bronny's foul on Bridges was a little dirty undercutting him. Couldn't stop Knecht, didn't realize he had 35(!). AD started off hot with 14 of the Lakers first 20 and finished with 35 too. Good to see the starters get their minutes. Everyone but Beal looked good. He just looks out of sync and his game doesn't seem to really fit. Maybe it was just a bad night. We were 12-36 from 3, they were 16-46. They also shot 10 more FTs. Couldn't stop dribble penetration and gave up too many ORs for 2nd chance points. Bud played a bunch of lineups so he seems to still be feeling things out. I thought Tyus had some trouble with full court pressure late in the game, maybe Morris is an option to close since he's a bit bigger, is a better defender and can do a bit more offensively. Been impressed with him on both sides of the ball during preseason.

Postgame quotes and videos

I'm not worried about the L; it's preseason. AD kind of went nuts on us, a bit concerning that we aren't able to stop big men like him. Glad Nurk looked so good already; that was a huge relief.

What was with this Knecht guy? How do the Lakers keep finding these white boys who go nuts on us? Oh well, at least Bronny is still bad, that gives me great joy.

Davis shooting 4/5 from 3 is some fluke ass bullshit lol

No, he was unguarded for most of them. That was the bigger issue.

Why we playing the KD and Beal in the 4th? Smh

Last game til next Wednesday.

No reason to risk injury for a game that doesn’t count

That's what I yelled at the excited Lakers fans at the end of the game. The game doesn't count!

Dunn challenged AD's shot twice! Once on a dunk attempt. They called a foul but it was a pretty good block attempt. This is the other challenge at the rim.

Nah AD is terrible at 3s, even wide open ones. Fluke shit.
