    Good win tonight. Win or lose I’m happy with how they’ve been competitive in every game so far except for the clippers

    I'll take that W. Players stepped up when it mattered most. Played good D through out the night. After all that ? they were talking all week about how Wall was gonna destroy us he went 7-22. Even Randle looked good at the end. We're really gonna be good when Zo's shot starts falling. Still desiring a lil more from BI despite the strong put back at the end to put us up. Great having KCP back.. and I can't wait for Kuzma to get in the starting lineup.

    Kuzma got the potential to really be the "Prime Richard Jefferson" as far as 6-8 EASY points per game playing off Lonzo every game

    Impressive defensive effort from the young squad. The rotations and help were there, outside of stretches.

    Man, was not expecting much from Josh Hart (mainly bcos he was injured during Preseason and Summer League), but in the last 2 games, he has been very impressive. Him stepping up helped us move JC to the PG spot and enables us not to play useless Ennis anymore.

    Hart is a really talented man defender, strong rebounder for a guard as well

    Been saying this since summer time let JC run backup point and play Hart in the 2nd unit, I have zero trust in Ennis

    Kobe Bryant is still four years away from being eligible, but the near-certain future Hall of Famer already has two people in mind for his induction.

    The five-time NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers said he would want Phil Jackson or Michael Jordan on stage with him at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Massachusetts.

    Major work in progress.

    Man, we need 3 point shooting. Our spacing is atrocious.

    Damn, we only made 3 Three point shots as a team last night. 3-23 to be exact. Not good at all.

    Last night's game was one of the best i have seen from Brandon Ingram. He was amazing on both ends of the floor. Glad he is improving steadily this season. Sky is the limit.

    He was pressing in preseason and to start the regular season. He's more in the flow and just doing what he does. Good to see.

    Lonzo's vision continues to amaze me.
