The Los Angeles Lakers might have signed the right Morris twin in Markieff Morris!
Lake Show Life showed their concern when Morris wasn’t getting any time on the floor. To get any rhythm, a player has to see the floor. Frank Vogel wanted to make sure he got his legs under him.
All parties can agree that his legs are under him.
Markieff Morris scored 14 points on the strength of four 3 point shots in five attempts. He added 5 rebounds with an assist. Even though he started in this game in place of Anthony Davis, this type of performance will be needed coming off the bench.
Speaking of the bench. They were outstanding.
Despite the defense optional atmosphere. the Los Angeles Lakers bench dropped an absurd 67 points in the game. They can’t stop anybody, but that’s a discussion for the weekend.
Lake Show Life wants to congratulate a couple of rookie players for their first NBA baskets.

Would you believe the Greek Freak’s little brother led the team in plus/minus with +14? Might not mean a lot to the casual fan, but hey it means something to him. He can send 10% of his next big contract to Ronald Agers.
Lake Show Life would really like to extend our appreciation to the supporters of this series. This segment has grown to be a major cog of the machine of this website. It cannot be done without readers tuning in after every game and commenting below. For the first time, we get to do a postseason version.
We want this to be an enjoyable experience for Lakers fans to comment and layout their observations. It’s an open invitation and it’s a judge free-ish zone with knowledgeable fans!
Congratulations Lakers Nation on the playoff berth. If there is a fanbase that deserves it, it’s you guys! See you Monday!
