Still not a big fan of whenever the ball gets swung or kicked out to LaRavia and he immediately has a panic attack about what to do. That said, at least by the eye test, it feels as though he's shooting the 3 ball well but probably on low volume.

It's too early to put an exact label on this Lakers team, but they do remind me of the 2020 title team in this sense: If the 2020 Lakers' big three were Bron, AD, and the team D, then the 2027 Lakers' big three are Luka, AR, and the overwhelming depth (especially on offense).

People keep talking about the 2nd rd picks and Hardy as an expiring deal, but, tbh, think I'd much rather have Ayton right now even if he'd be a headache coming off the bench.

Obviously, Adou Thiero's calling card is his power + athleticism. But this sort of "grease the wheel" effort is what will help keep him on the floor. Sets solid screen, rolls hard, seals NAW on the switch, gets the ball and hits Kessler with the quick pass for the easy basket.

Because nothing says "Trump may have learned his lesson" like elevating Stephen Miller and Jim Jordan to higher positions

Honestly, Ziaire Williams getting that steal on the inbounds en route to that clutch time dunk gave me Ariza vibes a bit

The Luka/Kessler P&R is stupid efficient and deadly. Defenses are routing two on the ball to corral Luka, while a third defender has to tag a rolling Kessler. Defenses are conceding the wiiiiiide open corner 3s, and LA's shooters are making teams pay.

I appreciate on nights like this (sans Luka) where LA has a 2nd ballhandler like Sexton to lighten AR's load. But I haven't seen a LA guard who has this low a bball IQ + makes this many mistakes like Sexton since Westbrook. Ship his ass out next month for a wing or a big, PLS.

NGL, I'd rather have a wing defender in place and be searching for a backup guard now (instead of signing Sexton on Day 1). Definitely feels like Pelinka saw the Knicks winning with defensively challenged guards like Brunson, Shamet, JC, and is leaning into that path hard.

I've seen enough. Adou is the new backup 'center'.

Adou is the best athlete on the Lakers and it's not particularly close.

If you took a worse version of Lakers Westbrook and divided him into two players, you'd get Grimes and Sexton lmao. Grimes represents the Westbrick side of things. And Sexton represents the ballhog, driving into a packed paint, out of control side of things.

A shame to see Kessler being so soft and bullied near the rim on offense. Also hasn't even taken a spot up three once despite all the talk about his shot this offseason. And Grimes/Sexton? They look more like the next Gabe/Nunn than anything else. Great job, Rob!

Honestly, Trump elevating Miller and putting him front and public does the Dems a favor. They're gonna have a political field day with this.

MacFarlane on Stephen Miller: Everything about this feels like a double down. This feels like amplifying the old ideas, putting them on steroids. But Stephen Miller was a foil for Democrats during this election. He was in the campaign ads as they tried to rally against Trump 2.0.

Despite the speculation, US Supreme Court Justices Thomas, 78, and Alito, 76, are not retiring. The results of the midterms -- with Democrats soon taking the Senate majority, leaving just a short window for the GOP to confirm a potential Trump nominee -- had no bearing on their thinking, and they have not changed their minds, @JanCBS reports.

On offense, Collin Sexton and Quentin Grimes combine the worst attributes of Russell Westbrook. Sexton, like Russ, is often trying to do way too much - to the point of playing out of control. Also, that usage rate. Grimes, like Russ, bricks every open three. Just backbreaking.

NYT: Moderate Democrats Increase Their Clout For much of the midterm campaign, progressive Democratic insurgents commanded the spotlight in the fight to wrest control of Congress, defeating establishment incumbents in primaries, drawing enthusiastic crowds and promising to reorder their party’s priorities and remake American politics once they got to Washington. But the path to Democrats’ sweeping victory this week, when they seized control of both chambers of Congress, was paved overwhelmingly by moderates who had spent months persuading voters in Republican-leaning states and competitive congressional districts that they could be trusted to govern and would deliver dissatisfied voters a practical alternative to President Trump nytimes.com/2026/11/04/us/po…
Moderate Democrats Increase Their Numbers, and Their Clout

Moderate Democrats Increase Their Numbers, and Their Clout

Victories by moderates in competitive or Republican-leaning states and districts paved the way for large new Democratic majorities likely to be shaped by their priorities.
