That’s so incredible they could do that in the preseason

Game analysis, highlights and everything else that is happening in the NBA.
Really missed Vando on the defensive end out there and bench didn't play great
Loved what I saw from AD & DLo
Suns bench looks better than I thought but Nurkic almost fouling out is concerning
Why is Lebron still the best player on this team? Embarrassing let the old man rest
Lebron will probably be playing 40+ minutes in January again trying to keep the Lakers in playoffs.
I’m really really praying for a repeat of the 2019-20 season for the lakers
if book and beal played in the first half we would have won 40
I may have underestimated Frank Vogel's impact. Which is odd because I was a huge advocate of his before, during, and after his Lakers tenure
Ik it’s preseason and we won by 25 but why tf was Nurkic constantly going at AD on offense
Like bro got blocked 5 times and kept going at him 😂 Can’t happen during reg season and playoffs
At least Nurkic tried, Ayton woukd just be in the corner giving AD free dunks
Welcome to Nurk!
man yall better waive bol bol 1-12 from the ft line smh
Preseason lmao
Couldn’t watch the game but how is Hachimura so far?
Terrible this game but good otherwise
I dont get what Ham was cooking when subbed in Reddish and Wood straight away. All the momentum we had went away when those two came in. Hayes and Christie should take every minute they have unless we're up by 20.
Rui had an awful game. It happens he'll bounce back. Overall excluding Rui our main rotation looked fine, but we could have capitalized on better looks. Bron, Ad, Prince, Reaves, and Dlo can stick with anyone and our bench will be better once Vincent and Vando are back.
It'll be a fun season hopefully we have a healthy playoff series against the Nuggs or Suns. Even if we lose it'll be great basketball. :P
Christian Wood -35 in 15:20.
Lakers fans experiencing the “Christian Wood effect” right now. Thanks for taking him off our hands.
What the fuck is up with this thread acting like this game wasn't a preseason game????
This was a good reminder that if I don’t want to unnecessarily lose brain cells I need to stay away from Lakers and Suns game threads this season.
K!
Cam Reddish, Christian Wood, and Rui Hachimura combined for 7 points
A Raptors 22/23 bench special
I will tell you what the real takeaway has been this entire preseason---it's that this Suns team can lock you up when they really dig in and engage. And off the bench, this team has a lot of dogs who are gonna compete and really bring energy and effort on that end of the floor. The Suns bench is gonna surprise some folks it looks like come regular season time. This team's defense could to.
I didn't see either as tremendous weaknesses compared to the average fan and in both departments, defense/bench, Suns have passing grades at the end of preseason.
