Los Angeles Lakers: 4 Lessons from win over Denver Nuggets
By Ronald Agers
Lake Show Life would like to interrupt this post game report for an “Identified Flying Object” sighting!
The NBA can keep right on sleeping on Alex Caruso. He might look like substitute teacher, but he’ll teach you some things. Dude can play. He’s the best guard coming off the bench (Hear that Frank Vogel!) and will dunk on you. HARD!

Take a look at the man who was the only one capable of taking a rebound from Dwight Howard. Caruso only had 6 points and 4 rebounds in 16 minutes before he fouled out. But his energy has won over LeBron James and he deserves more minutes in the rotation.
Rajon Rondo must be noticing (Or reading these post game reports). With Alex Caruso in so much foul trouble, Rondo needed to produce and make up for his performance on Sunday. He finished the night with 11 points and 6 assists. It will be interesting to see how Caruso’s and Rondo’s minutes will be divided when Avery Bradley gets back.
The Lakers will be back in action to take on the Jazz in Utah on the second night of a back-to-back. If the Lakers can start a new win streak, it’s time to let the snide remarks about the soft schedule go. After these pair of wins, the rest of the NBA will realize what Lake Show Life has known for over a month now.
The Los Angeles Lakers are legit.
