At this point sell Rui high and get a piece for him is Darvin SCAM isn't gonna play him. Lakers are too cheap to fire Darvin, but he's a fraud and been a fraud his entire tenure with LARui had a good playoff run, they paid him 17 million a year and Ham's dumb ass destroyed the dudes confidence by playing him 14 minutes a game.
A lot of wings have had breakout seasons at 25: Siakam, Jerami Grant, Lauri Markkanen, etc.
Not saying he was going to have the type of leap that they had but he was set to breakout

Doesn't matter if they fire Ham or not if Pelinka is still the gm. I would put my entire life savings on him fukking up the coaching hire again and putting another shyt roster together.

You hate Gabe as a player but he will stabilize the guard defense.
If you rewatch the Kings game he's not Schroder caliber but he's way better defensively than Reaves and Dlo.
The roster is not terrible Ham just does not know how to put together rotations.

AD has to be better, this is a game he should be able to dominate. Nurkic isn't a strong defender. Would like to see him be more aggressive 2nd half.
Rambis will be the next GM.
This I agree with.
They've been feeding him the ball and giving him open shots, he's just missing
Gabe is NOT a good defender! He is too undersized, slow and unathletic to keep up with other guards.

AD is an offball center he depends on people to set him up.
He's literally the best roll man in NBA history.
Dudes need to get him the ball near the rim.

Just show you how trash this front office is. Jeanie needs to sell the team. Nepotism is killing the franchise.

Gabe has been the worse offseason signing. Should have just paid Dennis.
That, we can agree on.

Bro I'm not a huge Gabe fan but he's clearly a huge step up over Reaves and Dlo.
Him getting minutes will help the team despite his other weaknesses.
That's how bad the current backcourt is on that side of the ball.
This isn't true.. Dennis is borderline elite when it comes to on ball defense, while Gabe is above average-good at it
