Game Thread: Phoenix Suns @ Los Angeles Lakers

[Retroram52]

Young gets an early steal and we are 2-0.

 

[Retroram52]

Mosgov was wide open and then took too long for Chandler to disrupt his shot. He is slow and we knew that when they signed him. Randle makes up the difference though.

 

[Retroram52]

We are 10th on offense and 17th on defense early this year. Luke definitely has improved this team as we were 29th and 30th last year respectively.

 

[Retroram52]

Young is playing pretty good D tonight already. Luke has really lit a fire under Young's backside. Jettisoning that lady friend of his has really helped.

 

[Retroram52]

We have and early 9-4 lead in the first.

 

[Retroram52]

We've gone cold in the last two minutes. Randle took too long to take a wide-open shot. Ball went the other way.

 

[Retroram52]

The Lakers are second in the league this year in FT completions. We sucked last year in this category. This is another positive Luke has brought to the Lakers.
