Indianapolis ColtsOct 17 Open postIztok Franko @iztokfranko.bsky.socialBlueskyDenver brought the blitz. The Lakers brought some growing pains.

Clean and decisive sweep where every game is close, but the better team makes the clutch play every single time down the stretch.Oct 15 Open postVinny Benedetto @vbenedetto.bsky.socialBlueskyNuggets lead 62-55 at halftime. Jokic with 15-4-6 on 6-7 FG.
Christian Braun and Murray add 13 apiece.
Luka Doncic with 15 on 4-10 FG to lead the Lakers. Not sure how much of the starters we see in the second half.Oct 16 Open postBenjamin Royer @thebenroyer.bsky.socialBlueskyLakers lose 121-106 in their preseason finale to the Denver Nuggets.
They finish the preseason 2-3, not that it matters all that much.
