Great conversation with Gerald, Jamie, LRob, and me about Lakers win. Everybody expressed their opinions on what’s wrong with the Lakers, with a lot of criticism on Gasol and KCP not contributing, AD and LeBron playing too much isoball. My take was this is just one of those periods in a long season where everybody is tired and flat. Bottom line, we were all happy that Caruso saved the day and we didn’t have to be going into Monday’s game against the Hawks mired in 3-game losing streak.

My biggest takeaway was Frank limiting the rotation to 9 players and including THT as the 9th man ahead of Morris and Matthews. Playing a set 9-man rotation is important becasue it gives everybody a chance to know when and with whom they will be playing, allows them enough minutes to get into a rhythym and develop rapport with their teammates, and enables the team to develop chemistry and continuity, which gets lost when the coach is trying to play 10 or 11 players. Hopefully, Frank will stick with these 9 for the foreseeable future.

The bench unit of AC, THT,Kuz, and Trezz playing with LeBron looked great and should become a staple as the Lakers move forwared. I love the AC and THT backcourt. No Morris and Matthews for a while. What got lost is we held another team under 100 points and remain undefeated when we do that. And, always great to beat the Greenies.

Congratulations from the Captain!
