Yes I am coping over the Sixers opening night loss to the Celtics so this is like my therapy. During this preview clip we discussed the Lakers opening night vs. the Golden State Warriors. The team looked as bad as advertised. With key injuries to new old Lakers Thomas Bryant and Dennis Schroder, their depth was tested and they were playing players like Matt Ryan and Wenyen Gabriel who have barely ever played in the league before. They also could not hit a shot which led to some snarky post game comments from Lebron James and Russell Westbrook already complaining about coming off the bench in the preseason. Can a Russ trade even save this team or are they past the point of no return? And yes I am coping over the Sixers opening night loss to the Celtics so this is like my therapy.
