Laker Blow Out Pistons 133-107, but Face Huge Challenge Tonight Against OKC Thunder.
Locked On Lakers - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Lakers - A podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, Andy and Brian Kamenetzky
The Lakers got many things they needed during Wednesday's 133-107 win in Detroit over the hapless Pistons. Big nights from Anthony Davis (28 points, 16 rebounds, three blocks) and D'Angelo Russell (35 points, nine assists). Solid supporting work from LeBron James (28 points, 8 rebounds). The return of Cam Reddish from a groin injury. Outside shots falling from Taurean Prince. Plus, they exercised the demons from a 44 point loss in Philly, where their butts were absolutely handed to them. Beating a team now on a 15-game losing streak doesn't fix all of your issues, but it likely makes the Lakers feel better heading into tonight's game in OKC against the Thunder. Who, it should be noted, are not on a 15-game losing streak. They're good. Very good. At times, scary good. Which means the Lakers will have their hands full trying to contain Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holgrem, and the rest of those dudes. How best to approach the task? And what's up with the Lakers' often stagnant offense (the win in Detroit not withstanding.) To discuss these questions and more, Andy talked with Alex Regla of Silver Screen and Roll for his perspective.
