In the third season of my 2K14 Lakers association, I had an opening bout against the Portland Trail-Blazers which ended in a 102 - 98 win for the new look Lakers in Double Overtime. It was the debut for the Lakers' two biggest signees, Carmelo Anthony and Rajon Rondo, who both had pretty good games as Carmelo had 32 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal while Rondo had 7 points, 3 rebounds, 14 assists and 3 steals. It was a breakout performance from the second year player, Julius Randle, who had one helluva game as he had a double double with 21 points and 15 rebounds! Kobe Bryant proved to everyone that he still has it as he too had a double double with 27 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists 1 steal and 2 blocks.
