Just got home, tied at 112 with 3 minutes to go. Luke already has them more competitive than last season.
Clarkson's stare down 3 clinches it with a minute and a half to go. Lakers defeat the Rockets 120-114 behind Clarkson's 23 point 2nd half.
They played this game under ABA rules; defense was outlawed

Here's to mediocrity!!It was the D'Antoni Rockets. I hope no one was expecting a grind it out game. The Lakers did hold the Rockets to 43 second half points. They played some defense then.
Nice win in a close game to start out the season. I just read a tweet saying this is the first time that the Lakers are over .500 since December 2013. It's been crazy bad. Rock bottom was not very fun. I doubt they finish the season over .500, but it will certainly be a more entertaining product than the last couple of seasons.

Good win from the young guys. I'm hoping for the best: flawless mediocrity so Philly gets a mid 1st round pick.
Or
Another shit the bed season to secure a top 3 pick.
The second is on the table as long as Jim Buss is around.
