Pelicans coast to a 123-95 blow-out victory over the Lakers.
This game was so laughably bad from an L.A. perspective that someone in next year’s Mardi Gras parade needs to design a float based on it. – 12:29 AM

I’ve grown weary of labeling games the “worst of the season” and identifying “new lows.” This 123-95 loss to the Pelicans certainly has a case for both, but I’m not sure it matters anymore. – 12:28 AM

Further proof that we know nothing:
Through 60 games, the Lakers are now…
27-33
21 1/2 games out of 1st
8 1/2 games out of avoiding the play-in/6th

Pretend this was legal. Who says no:
The Lakers agree to bench LeBron and AD for the rest of the year. The Pelicans waive their 2023 swap rights and their right to defer the 2024 pick the Lakers owe them to 2025.
Pels would basically guarantee themselves a top-10 pick this year – 12:22 AM

Good see Lakers still figuring it out w/just over 20 games left getting their dome split at home by a team 12 games under.500… if you wrote “figuring it out” in a tweet or story or made some ridiculous comparison to the Heat’s start w/their actual Big 3 a decade ago 😂 – 12:20 AM

Third quarter: Pelicans 95, Lakers 65
The third quarter was a calamity of errors — turnovers, missed layups, boos. LA’s body language and effort said it all. In a disappointing season full of lows, this is a new low point. LA is up to 21 turnovers — LeBron & Russ each have 7. – 11:55 PM

Russell Westbrook has taken as many shots (12) as Austin Reaves, Talen Horton-Tucker, Stanley Johnson and Malik Monk combined.
Those are the only four players the Lakers have used tonight that are in their 20s, and idk, I’d kind of prioritize getting them touches. – 11:40 PM

If this result holds, the Lakers will just be 2.5 games out of 11th place. We’ve taken for granted that they can’t fall out of the play-in, but if they’re gonna play like this … and AD is still a month away … are we sure? – 11:39 PM
