The Hawks had won 5 straight and their offense was on a historic run over those games.


But the Lakers should have won this.

That happened multiple times in the short amount of time that I watched the game, the players seemed confused possession to possession if they were going to switch or go around the screen or double.
No they were literally switching the entire game.. there was no change to it. Gabe was getting switched onto a bigger player TONS of possessions in the 4th and OT cause of the switching

Gabe just went stupid on that last possession

This team is just not constructed well around Bron and AD.


A healthy Vando helps the defense, hustle, and rebounding but you still need other pieces.


Mainly a backup big and some athletic guards that can defend.


Might have to get rid of Rui too his IQ on the court is too low.

AD near triple double, Lebron triple double, and Lakers still lost because those same two guys always fukking it up in the clutch. This has been happening the whole AD/Lebron Era if you really think about it. How many times has Lakers lost because AD missed his free throws or Lebron takes a 40 foot three? :skip:

the dumbass 3 at the end of the 4th wasn't even the worst part. he took a woat 3 and then didn't even bother closing out on de'andre hunter that put them up 2 and almost threw it away the next possession
That was Christie's man who he left to go get the rebound and then failed to do that.

Him leaving to get that rebound that he didn't get is what fukked that play.

They need to dump some of these coveted "young guys" and consolidate a team that actually makes sense around two non high effeciency 3 point shooters like Bron and AD.... Should have did it last year but too much delusion about the upside of some of these side pieces

Again you’re wrong

An offensive minded coach who doesn’t care about defense. It’s no surprise the defense took a nose dive.

Ham would have had them playing harder on that end.
You just created this fictive up in your head for some unbeknown reason, most likely because you feel Ham was made a scapegoat for problems beyond his control, much like the same case is for JJ this season.

I don’t know, just maybe the problem is the makeup of the squad compounded by the injuries they have to contend with, and no amount of coaching or type of coach is going to change that. Just maybe.
