Take Jones out put Wenyen in.

Russ got them playing with pace. Lebron and AD are way too slow. The only way this team is gonna win games is if they run every chance they get.

Makes sense, this roster is more athlete than shooters, you need a lot more transition ball

the way lebron runs this team is not ideal

This is the formula i wanted to see.to start the season...

Put AD at the 4
And put russ on bench.. this will at least give vertical spacing and crazy pace

Russ
Pat Bev
Nunn
Jones

battle of the junk

Lakers play good enough defense that you always got watch them go down in the 4th quarter.

The problem is they don't have a 5 unless you decided to play Wenyen at the 5 which I would not be opposed to.

He's a good hustle player and he has cut down on his fouling.

Russ game? RUSS GAME lmao.

I really hope Russ buys into the bench role. He seems to thrive without AD and Bron on the court because he’s then the primary ball handler.

They need to let him cook more without Bron and AD on court, and see how it works out

Ham said he will come off the bench moving forward, don't know how long it will last but this will go on for a while. He should embrace it because this is his role in the league moving forward

Lebron is playing ass on offense but he's giving 85% of effort on defense.

 

[seraphx]

Reeves seems so unrefined sometimes. Just losing the ball.

This Russ is likeable

These boys trying tonight, I dig it.
