The Lakers found their way to victory tonight once morest the Blazers. The Californians triumphed 128 to 109 in a match that they mastered thanks to their Big Three house… further proof that anything is possible in the NBA.
Three Lakers players donned the warm-up blue last night to plant 80 pawns and confirm that there is indeed a Big Three in the city of Angels. The three names that burn the lips of all Lakers fans are: LeBron James, Anthony Davis and… Russell Westbrook Austin Reaves. 31 for the cyborg, 27 for theUnibrow and 22 for the minot, necessarily when everyone is present throughout the meeting, Darvin Ham doesn’t need to play Zorro at a press conference.
As once morest Indiana, the game was close until the break and Rob Pelinka’s proteges put a little speed in the third quarter to take a ten-point lead. The Lakers in front at the start of the last quarter… well, that reminds us of a scenario that ended with a buzzer beater on LeBron James’s Calvary. But this time, the King and his henchmen are not going to offer victory to their opponents and the Blazers leave Los Angeles with a third loss in a row. A victory that is good for the morale of the troops and in particular for a Russell Westbrook who is very happy to drop a nugget of the logo.

Lakeland therefore wakes up with an eighth victory this season and the aficionados can smile. If the supporting cast behaved well through Austin Reaves or Thomas Bryant, the Lakers owe their victory to an AD-LeBron duo that brought down lightning. King James set the target with 31 units, 7 rebounds and 8 assists without forgetting a nice 6/8 from the bar while Davis took care of Jusuf Nurkic with 27 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks. Inevitably, when they play like that, it’s immediately easier for the other Zouaves to get into the rhythm and gain confidence. On the other side, Jerami Grant (27 points) and Anfernee Simmons (22 pawns) limited the damage, but they were not surrounded enough to return to Oregon with the victory.
But following this victory, the people of Los Angeles say goodbye to one of their darlings… Matt Ryan who was cut before even leaving the locker room according to Shams Charania. Private Ryan goes and releases a sport in the roster, we just remember that December 15 is fast approaching.
The Lakers are waiving wing shooter Matt Ryan, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Ryan impressed in stint with L.A., shooting 38.2 percent from 3, including a clutch shot in win over Pelicans in November. The move opens up a roster spot for Lakers ahead of Dec. 15 trade date.

AD who continues on its momentum, LeBron who does LeBron, Austin Reaves who comes out of his box and Russell Westbrook king of the buzzer… in short, this series of words allows Los Angeles to readjust its balance sheet to 8 wins for 12 losses, it is not crazy, but there is better. The evening might have been perfect for Lakers fans but Rob Pelinka decided otherwise, without Matt Ryan how can the Lakeshow get away with it?
