The Los Angeles Lakers’ frontcourt rotation is far from being stable, especially with the absence of Larry Nance, Jr. Thomas Robinson has gone above and beyond expectations filling in for Nance, Jr., hitting the glass hard and playing with the same reckless abandon that earned him the Lakers’ final roster spot. LA fully harnessed that level of energy by lining him up with Tarik Black, and what transpired over a five-minute stretch in the first half was nothing short of miraculous.
The lone five minute stretch serves as the tiniest of sample sizes; a crumb of a crumb of a crumb.
