Los Angeles Lakers vs Philadelphia 76ers Full Game Highlights | Nov 8, 2024 | FreeDawkins

Gator loving, let's go. And now, Cripple.com Arena, down at Los Angeles. This evening, the Lakers take on, from the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia 76ers. They need to improve, and they need to improve starting tonight. This is not a bad ball club to try to do that against. They're not a good offensive team. By the way, welcome back Rui, who missed the last game due to an illness. That's Kyle Lowry, who's been around since the dawn of man. They got a lot of veterans who have been around forever. Drive, kick, A.D.'s gonna try the three, and he hits it. Davis, who was just 16%, coming in, knocks it down. Underneath, A.D., score! Beating Kelly Oubre, Jr. to the hole. Did you see that last sidestep he gave to avoid the charge? Here is Martin, knocks it down. Rebound Drummond, he's a four-time rebounding champ. LeBron strips him again as he goes up to shoot. Yeah, might have hurt his finger a little bit, and nothing but net for Austin Reeves. 11-6 Lakers early. PG pulls up. Those grew up a Laker fan. Here is the ball down, taken now by A.R. That's good effort by Rui, because they were stripping him. And so he can maybe get the payoff, too. On the assist from Austin. Bouncing out of the corner, Oubre, Jr. That's a good move, but A.D. was lurking behind. He blocked it, there's Drummond, too hard. Lakers come in with a record of four and four. They've lost four of five. Remember, last year they lost their first five on the road. Gliding and laying it in right at the rim was Austin. Bounce over to A.D., throw it down softly with two hands for LeBron. What a nice bounce pass by LeBron. Instead, it's out to Reddish. Reddish for three. So the Lakers, shooting from beyond the arc, are red hot, five for six. Trying to get it to A.D., and it goes in. That means that's assist number six. At the other end, lay it up and in. Boy, he fumbled the pass and finally got it up on the glass to score. Oh, LeBron blows the layup, but it's tapped up and in. Go ahead and give LeBron the assist. The lob underneath, they put it up, they put it in. That's with that Kenyon Martin, Jr. there. Martin, couple of big steps. That's to the wide open man as Lowry pushes it into the corner, and it's knocked down that time by K.J. There's Mr. October, Jackson. Yabasole again. D'Lo, aggressive to the basket, and he scores. D'Lo said, hey, want me to be an offensive punch coming off the bench? Turing, spinning, and a little hook in the lane is A.D. You know, Reddish, he was part of that Klay Thompson trade that six teams were involved with. D'Lo, yes sir! D'Angelo dancing out on the perimeter. Then D'Lo, changing pace all the way, scores! I'll say something, he has come out, he said, okay, I'm going to score. True great junior, he's not going anywhere, but Kelly puts it up and in. This is the finale of a four game trip for them. Lakers just got off of their five game. Oh, LeBron just kind of buried his head, put his shoulder down, and pulled his way to the basket. If he's able to get that shoulder into you, there's nothing you can do. Reeves, catch, shoot, got it, yes sir! Just 20% from three over the last four games. There's Gershon. And Yabusele is showing that he can knock down the triple. Reeves, lob, Jackson's got it, just rolled it in. Lobbed, PG's under there. McCain's going to look for another three, and he has it. Paul George, great three point shooter, prolific score. He goes all the way to the rim and scores. He missed five games after hyperextending his knee. And here he is on a three on one. He's the middle man, right side, that's a good dish. Yabusele just slows it down with the hammer dunk. And we got a one point game with 640 left in the half. Lakers one of the worst benches in the NBA. Second to last as Reeves hits another outside jump shot. Oh, just a little step to the left and hit it for AR. I'll tell you something, Auston Reeves is feeling it from the long range. PG goes to the other side and lays it up and in on the reverse. Lowry into the corner. That's a good pass. O'Brien Jr. with the slam of a really, really nice dish from Caleb Martin. Here comes AD all the way to score. Nice gliding basket off the assist from Auston Reeves. The broad, boy, he just bodied that well, didn't he, Stu? Drummond going up against Davis. Couple of wily veterans. The spin move by Andre Drummond. Again, 21 games for the Lakers back in 2021, the year they were trying to defend the title. AD, second three, ring it up. And count it for dad. And one. Here comes LeBron. Dish. AR, yes sir! He's hot and LeBron is just dishing him out. Blocked by Davis. They've got time. See if Paul George puts up a few more shots here in this third. Try to get back in a rhythm. He was saying, oh, he was just out of sync. Drummond, boy, look at him, flexing a little bit. Come on. Can Reeves start hot? Yes, it continues. He rolls it right into the second half. Now here is LeBron, attaches live action and he scores. Are you going to have to manage it like that the whole year? Is he going to have to sit two or three games? Rui hits from three. I mean, that's the big question with AD. Corner three, frozen rope, and down it goes for Caleb Martin. And underneath they score. And in the attacking zone, here's Delo trying to get around his man. Throws it high off the glass and scores. A scoop and score for Delo. Dalton got rejected. And that was K.J. Martin, right in front of his dad over there at the other end. And then the Lakers return the favor. Connect. There it was. Yeah. Yeah, a little easy lay-in. One, two, big step, and they beat AD a little bit right in the lane. By the way, we have not seen Max Christie. He is the odd man out. Underneath. Dive to the basket and it's Martin. But Delo on the great pass from James. And one. A little more on Delo with Michael. Yeah, Billy, just quickly, you mentioned sometimes as Philly gets a three, Delo, you know, doesn't take a lot of free throws. It takes a lot of a shot to the perimeter. Delo, that time. From the outside, the splash on the rainbow three. On cue. LeBron from the outside. Gotta count if it goes, and it goes. Into the corner. Oh, immediately going baseline. That's in tight space. Wow. In tight space. Yeah, because I thought for sure he was passing that to D'Angelo. Me too. Blocked by Jax. Taken by James. And a triple-double for LeBron. 14, 12, and 10 as we stand. Oh, LeBron. Go ahead and finish it off. The all-time leading score in the history of the game. Now to McCain. McCain fires for three and rattles it in. I like McCain a lot. A lot of Southern California ties. Jax throws it down. Once again, give an assist to the big guy. Pretty good position is Drummond. Had two Lakers in the air momentarily, but then Jax stayed with it. And to beat the clock, I think it's good. No basket, no basket. But on the 50-50, Philly controls it. Martin, AD, tried to close out. LeBron, three. Got it! He makes any of these shots here in the last couple of minutes. It's a much different deal. Oh, he scored anyway. He went to Villanova for a couple years. Look out below. Paul George. He glides in and scores. Over 18,000, just short of a sellout, though. Delo banks it in. Good pass, good pass. That's more to Drummond's liking. That was a good play by Paul George. LeBron turning, scoring. Underneath, put up and in. Lakers are gonna win, and they're gonna go above 500. They're gonna be unblemished at home. 4-0, they were 28-14 here last year. LeBron short, rebound AD. Now he's got his 30. 31 for Davis. Well, you gotta get the ball, call a timeout. Call somebody. Pull it out of bounds or do something. Seriously, right out of bounds. Crowd is happy. The crowd is on their feet. They're really happy. Got a minute and a half left. You'll hear it when James gets it. If he does, that's a good cut. And a nice pass by the big fella. Yeah, Coloco did a good job of spotting Max Christie on the cut. Max is gonna go all the way blocked. That's Bona with the block. Ooh. Got a whistle. With 43.4 left. Stick around, post game's coming up. Underneath. Big fella scores and one. Yes. Lakers really was theirs from the start. No real resistance from Philadelphia. They gotta get better and healthy. Soon as Embiid and Maxie come back, they'll be a much different team. Until then, wins are gonna be tough to come by. That'll do it from cribrow.com Arena. Final 116 to 106. Make sure to catch our next telecast at Sunday 6.30 when the Lakers take on the Toronto Raptors.
