JJ Redick says the Lakers played "together and for each other" tonight.

He called it one of their better games as far as consistent effort for 48 minutes.

JJ Redick said we’ll continue to see the rotation where Luka comes out at the 3 min. mark of the 1st and 3rd instead of going full quarters, with Luka and LeBron being the QB’s of respective units.

Redick added that they ran more 2-man action with both when they shared the court.

Nick Smith Jr. says his focus has been on "staying ready" and praised the coaching staff for helping him get up to speed for when his name was called.

Nick Smith Jr. got the game ball tonight and said he is "blessed" to be here playing with the Lakers.

Nick Smith Jr. on where his confidence comes from:

"In this league, you gotta have confidence. If you don't, they'll see it right away... I feel like I can hoop with the best of them."

Rui out tomorrow

thank god we can have jake start and adou gets minutes

finally a defensive lineup instead of watching the himbo ball watch

yup

sad to see Rui get hurt but I'm very interested to see more defense in the lineups

Just need Jake to stop being so scared all the time and actually shoot the ball when he's open

Should just assume AR not coming back until after All-Star. No need to rush anything

starters

Defense is still horrible

Lucky to be down 5 at the half

Kleber's been terrible this game

JJ decided to just give him minutes instead of Adou

it's over Silas.

we'll never build a championship roster with pestinka behind the phones

These niggas sorry asl

team is filled with lazy soft pussies

JJ Redick:

"The turnovers, fastbreak points and points in the paint killed us tonight."

JJ Redick on the Lakers' identity: "Still trying to figure that out, maybe it's a cop out. It probably is. I do know that we've had a lot of starts and stops."

Luka Doncic felt the Lakers played "great basketball" for three quarters before things got away in the fourth.

Luka says the Lakers need to do a better job of matching the physicality when they play athletic teams like the Pistons.

Luka Doncic on his 8 turnovers and the team having 20:

"Too many turnovers. Gotta stop losing the ball."
