Half the team is trying to play team ball, while the other half is only looking out for their stats (we know who they are:ufdup:).

Luke is not the problem.

If a 9 game losing streak doesn't cause you to make changes. I don't know what does.

Team is officially in shambles and it's looking like Luke lost the team.

Watch any game from October or November, then watch their next game. A few of these divas have checked out. Luke needs to figure out how to manage this circus or he's :camby:. Find a starting lineup and stick to a consistent rotation.

I’m done with KCP. Dude is soft and doesn’t even try to stay in front of ball handlers. And when his jumper isn’t falling he is useless on offense. Please trade him, Hart is way more reliable.
Of all the shyt that's pissing me off with this team he might be number 1. His jumper has been broke and I'm not seeing this great defensive he gets credit for. Lue's matchups were ridiculous. You can't switch Lonzo off onto MKG, he's just not big enough for that matchup and Lonzo is actually a solid defender. You need a lot of Bogut in this matchup especially once he saw the Hornets killing them on the glass so bad. I don't see a lot of the players on this team being part of the future and I wouldn't mind seeing the Lakers dial them back. I want to see a lot less of Brook and KCP. Sadly I don't think I'd mind seeing more of Brewer as he at least brings lots of energy. Figure out going forward what they're going to do with Nance and Randall.

They also need to figure out what the hell is up with Kuzma. I may be tripping but it really seems like his legs aren't in his jumpers and he's shooting more with his arms now. He doesn't have the fluid motion on his jumper that he had earlier in the year. Sit him for a week or two if need be.

We are clearly just talent deficient. That's all it boils down to. Lack of talent and the talent we have is too young. Makes me sick we dont have the pick this year cause what we needed is in the top of this draft class
