Not so small thing, but Luka’s defensive rebounding has been pretty critical to ending possessions especially for the small groups.

We're gonna see a lot of (justifiable) tributes to Michelle Trachtenberg's work in "Buffy," but to me, she will always be Nona F. Mecklenberg from "The Adventures of Pete & Pete," dying of embarrassment when her dad (played by Iggy Pop!) serenades her: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW-8...

Also I have a very important NBA update: I still cannot believe Luka Doncic is on the Lakers. Like, literally. I feel like I'm hallucinating every time I watch them play.

Nikola Jokic had 12 points on 2-7 shooting – the second-fewest points he’s scored and fewest shot attempts he’s had in a game this season – to go with 13 rebounds and 10 assists but 6 turnovers in the Lakers’ 123-100 win over Denver last night. 🧵 on LAL’s gameplan against Jokic: 1/

Dorian Finney-Smith has now played 903 possessions with the Lakers and the team is still crushing when he's on the floor. Lineups including him: +14.8 123.3 offRTG (that would rank 2nd) 58.8% eFG% (that would rank 2nd) 108.5 defRTG (that would rank 2nd) 49.9% opp eFG% (that would rank 1st)

The Lakers have now played nine games without Anthony Davis pre/post-trade. They are 7-2, and in this stretch rank: 7th in offense 2nd in defense 4th in point differential (+13.2) The defense holding up has been extremely impressive.

There is important context to any number at this point given the sample (Luka's injury, new teammates, blowouts, etc) but one stat I am tracking is drives. As a team, the Lakers are averaging less since the trade (they were 27th prior). Individually, Luka has gone from 14.6 (10th most) to just 10.

The Lakers set a season-high in 3-point attempts for the second straight game, taking 51 after taking 50 in their loss to Utah. Tons of them without the ball crossing the 3PT line at all at any point during the possession
