Not sure why but @Charlotte Hornets haven’t posted post-game media content after the last few west coast games and I have no idea why. Real shame, hoping this resolves soon as like many I rely on the post game interviews for information and content. – 4:22 AM

“We kept battling, we got back into the game. We built a lead [in the third quarter], they came back. There was some resiliency there. We could have given in. We closed out strong in regulation and had a shot at the end to win it.” – Coach James Borrego

Carmelo Anthony is just on fire. The entire crowd at Staples was brother to their feet after his last 3-pointer with 9 minutes left in the 4th. He’s 6-for-9 from beyond the arc and has a game-high 26 points in 24:30. – 12:38 AM

Perhaps Rondo’s best stretch of the regular season.
LAL trailed 78-70 when he checked in at the 4:52 mark of the 3rd Q, and lead 94-87 at quarter’s end.
Rondo (now a +21) had 6 of his 8 assists in the 3rd … not including a ridiculous buzzer-beating midcourt 3 from Monk. – 12:28 AM

Monster night for Julius Randle:
31 points,
12 rebounds,
5 made 3-pointers,
3 assists
It’s the fourth time as a Knick that Randle has tallied at least 30 points, 10 boards and 5 made treys, which ties Carmelo Anthony for the most such games in Knicks franchise history. – 9:19 PM

Dwight Powell was waiting to come into the game for Kristaps Porzingis but he didn’t get a stoppage of play until KP picked up foul No. 3. Mavs have survived it, pulling ahead 38-31. – 9:17 PM

Frank Vogel said there has been a temptation to start AD at the 5, in part to address spacing issues, but it’s difficult with both LeBron and Ariza out from a size standpoint. Jordan will start again tonight, though there will be plenty of Davis at the 5 as usual. – 8:53 PM

Among the many injured players the Lakers are hoping return soon, Talen Horton-Tucker might be the closest. The 20-year-old should be cleared for contact tomorrow, and he’s raring to go: ocregister.com/2021/11/08/lak… – 8:26 PM
