Lakers got past Memphis 108-94 tonight (1/3). Happy New Year to you all!
James played within the offense for the first three quarters, then became more aggressive to start the fourth, scoring the Lakers first 10 points of the period. His 3-pointer with 2:34 left made it 101-90.
After surrendering 36 points in the first quarter, the Lakers held the Grizzlies to 18, 21, and 19 over the final three periods.
“That’s figuring out opponents, making in-game adjustments and doing what’s necessary to get a win,” Lakers coach Frank Vogel said.
The teams will meet again Tuesday night.

Golden State tied a season low with three offensive rebounds. ... They were 8 of 34 from beyond the arc. The 23.5% accuracy rate is their fourth worst of the season. ... The 20 turnovers marked the fourth time this season they have had 20 or more.
Los Angeles finished with season highs in rebounds (60) and steals (14) ... Dennis Schröder scored 12 points and Talen Horton-Tucker 11. ... Damian Jones finished with eight points, three rebounds and two blocks in eight minutes in his LA debut. ... The Lakers were 6 of 9 on 3-pointers in the first quarter but struggled the rest of the game, going 5 of 22.

We need to go AT LEAST 3-2 . . wondering how Vogel will play LeBron on the second of the back-to-backs. Still without AD for at least two more weeks. Heat check time!!

lol. 2 in a row - Lakers 96 Orlando 93, (LeBron who - just joking ). Kuzma had a great game = 21/11 and so did Schroder with 24 points. 30-17 now on the season.
USC or UCLA Rev? Both are in the Final 8, insane year for the NCAA.

Paul George also has a lingering injury to his toe that hasn't necessarily slowed him down, but we all know his playoff troubles. Knock on wood we can get our entire squad back healthy and tuned-up in time to kick ass, because realistically none of these Western teams can beat us 4 out of 7.
