The Lakers were able to get Anthony Davis going, but the Jazz's shot making combined with more 3rd quarter struggles to sink the Lakers and drop them to 2-8 on the season.

Then later, the guys discuss how small tweaks in lineups and the potential returns of Thomas Bryant and Dennis Schröder can positively impact the team.
