Game 80: Los Angeles Lakers (48-31) vs. Dallas Mavericks (38-41)

This. I love Lively. He has been bad since returning. I loved the center combo of Lively and Gafford just playing hard all the time. I really liked PJ as a PF wild card. Who provided toughness and athleticism with streaky shooting, but had gotten up to 37% from three from the year. I don't want to make final judgements because everyone has been hurt and just returned, but the reviews are not great. Our starting front court has looked terrible so far. PJ looks not suited to be a SF, especially when we are so limited by creation. Lively is just out there when playing with AD. AD looks slow and moves like a 5 right now. On defense teams are getting shots at the rim and wide open threes. Tough to imagine this being a super strength of the team moving forward. If it is not, how do they change it?
