Sustained periods of quality play have been hard to come by this season for the Los Angeles Lakers, but Monday they put together some decent quarters en route to a 131-120 win over the Cavaliers. LeBron James was fantastic, notching 38 points with 11 rebounds and 12 assists, Russell Westbrook finished with 20/11, and only one turnover. DJ Augustin didn't miss a shot! And the Lakers as a team looked like they were having fun, a rarity this season for very obvious reasons.They played a pretty good game against Toronto on Friday, then three-fourths of a good game the next night against Washington. Monday, they rallied from a slow start to notch a very solid win. Is it ok to believe in the possibility of this team having possibilities? Even a little?Meanwhile, the Lakers played a lineup Monday that would have been impossible to predict in the preseason, because most of the guys weren't on the team (Wenyen Gabriel, Stanley Johnson, Augustin) or barely expected to play (Austin Reaves). What does that say about the roster construction, and does it mean danger signs for next year?HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: The Lakers won, and had fun doing it. That matters. Squint, and you see the blueprint again.SEGMENT 2: One reason the Lakers came through: They scored enough points to stay close in a shaky defensive first quarter. Also, Westbrook was good.SEGMENT 3: What Monday's lineups say about how this team was constructed, and what the Lakers face this offseason.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksCheck out PrizePicks.com and use promo code: “NBA” or go to your app store and download the app today.
