# If replying to a prediction post remove the entire previous message or if

$Bill <news@todbe.com>: Jan 16 08:21PM -0800

Where's the improvement? Lakers were pretty abysmal the whole game. Defense
sucked, shooting sucked, RBing so-so, ball handling not good. Only 3 guys in
DFs and no DDs. Black and Brown only guys over 50%. I'm not impressed.
82-109 Lakers lose by 27.

Quarterly Laker scoring leaders/notes (pluses OR/ST/BL; minuses TO/PF/oOR):

Q1 - Crappy ball handling, bad D and more poor shooting has LA in a Q1 hole
again - Nance goes out with a sore right knee - bad call on Lou for a
block when he was pushed - shooting 29% vs 61%; pluses 5/1/0; minuses
7/4/1. Williams 5, Clarkson 4. 18-32=-14Q.

Q2 - Lakers drop 10 more, still not shooting well - shooting 32% vs 44%; pluses
5/1/1; minuses 2/6/6 - too many oORBs. Bryant/Clarkson 4. 18-28=-10Q.

HT - Nothing seems to change for LA - poor ball handling, D, shooting -
shooting 30% vs 51%; pluses 10/2/1; minuses 9/10/7. Clarkson/Williams 8,
Brown 6, Bryant/Russell 5. 36-60=-24H.

Q3 - Lakers let UTA score 89 in 3 Qs to their 59 - shooting 35% vs 52%; pluses
3/1/2; minuses 2/3/1. Williams 12, Randle 4. 23-29=-6Q (59-89=-30).

Q4 - Lakers manage to win a Q by 3 from UTA's bench - shooting 43% vs 43%;
pluses 3/1/1; minuses 3/1/3. Russell 8, Black 6, Kelly 5. 23-20=+3Q.

Final - Where's the improvement? Lakers were pretty abysmal the whole game.
Defense sucked, shooting sucked, RBing so-so, ball handling not good.
Only 3 guys in DFs and no DDs. Black and Brown only guys over 50%.
I'm not impressed. 82-109 Lakers lose by 27.

NBC recap from http://scores.nbcsports.com/nba/recap.asp?g=2016011626

Gobert posts double-double as Jazz defeat Lakers 109-82
By KAREEM COPELAND AP Sports Writer

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Rudy Gobert had 18 points, 18 rebounds and five
blocked shots, helping the Utah Jazz cruise to a 109-82 victory over
the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday night.

The Jazz used a 26-5 spurt in the first quarter, including three
baskets by Trey Burke, to run away with the game in the first 12
minutes. The Lakers' last lead came at 7-4.

Gobert recorded his first double-double since returning from an MCL
injury. Gordon Hayward had 14 points, and Trey Lyles finished with 17
points and nine rebounds. Trey Burke scored 16 points.

Lou Williams led the Lakers with 20 points and D'Angelo Russell added
13. Kobe Bryant played 15 minutes and scored five points.

The Jazz broke a two-game losing streak.

The Lakers have lost six of seven since a season-high three-game win
streak.
