So seriously, what is the psychology behind never going back to a traditional 5 guarding Jokic. This is the most embarassing shyt I’ve seen in years

To take a stab at this question, a traditional 5 would not be able to stay with Jokic on defense, as Jokic isnt always in the post, so that leaves the lane open on D. Also, that would force Davis to chase around Gordon or Porter all night. He aint trying to do that.

On offense, a 5 clogs the lane for all the driving that Bron, AD, Reeves, etc would try to do. Traditional 5's dont work in the league anymore. Its why Zach Edey isnt looked at as a big piece in the draft. 'Traditional' 5 are too slow for the NBA in 2024

Rise up!
LeGBT when Lebron wins and plays well: "He's in his 21st season :banderas: "

LeGBT when Lebron loses and plays horrible: "He's in his 21st season :mjcry:"
“He has nothing left to prove :mjcry:
“It’s [insert random role player]’s fault for not averaging twenty points :mjcry:
“This team he’s facing is one of the greatest teams ever assembled.”

Jokic is a traditional center, tbf. He been playing that way against the Lakers the last two years due to Hachimura guarding him.

I think the question was more size related, but you are right that a center guarding Jokic keeps them out the paint and he would just allow open lanes for Jokic to find cutters to the basket.

I don't know but they should have immediately fired him when both Udoka and Nurse became available. Man, he's fukking embarrassing out there
Was he embarassing 5 months ago when they won the first ever mid-season tournament? It's ironic how any downfalls and roster management are blamed on coaches when majority of the time they have no influence over that.

Ham was picked by management and given green light by golden boy but now yall want him fired and boo him at home games.

You Laker fans did the exact same thing with Frank Vogel when problems occur the coach always takes the blame and fall looks like Ham is getting fired once this series is over and cycle continues.

I am the furthest thing from a Laker fan. Ham is fukking incompetent. At best, he should be an assistant
