I don’t know how anyone can expect better results given how clippers shot today.
I think everyone played pretty well |
I would agree but we give these performances to a lot of teams. It’s not looking good |
We just lost too many winnable games that we can’t afford these moral victories |
I agree with you both, we can’t afford to drop games, Warriors will go on a winning run eventually and the Rockets will probably add some decent pieces before the trade deadline I don’t want to see a AD and LeBron lead team fight for the 9/10 spot of the play in, that’s embarrassing |

Of course against us. Worst 3pt defense ever |
Brick is shooting 28.6% from the 3, don’t blame our defense for that one. That is our game plan and it is the right one. Coffey is a good shooter |
Every team shoots well from 3 against us though. They’re overconfident in that area bc they know we’re not guarding them. |
Every team leaves brick open from the 3, and he just hit them tonight, we live with the result. They hit some tough ones too, Powell and PG |
Powell and PG shot their normal percentage. Even if Brick bricked all his threes, it still wouldn't have been enough to change the outcome of the game imo.

Leaving NBA players wide open and converging in the paint when we have a dpoy candidate is a good strategy? Lol |
It won the bucks a title. Ham learned from Bud and his Bucks when they won gave up the most open 3s and most corner 3s of any team in the season and in the playoffs. He stole Buds defense but his guards aren’t Middleton and Jrue who you couldn’t isolate |

We didn’t leave them open and converging in the paint, they were open because we had to trap kawhi and PG and also our stupid switching. Ball moves faster than man. Also AD was guarding Kawhi in the second half, no inside presence either.
Teams left us open too, are you saying we don’t have NBA players? |

Also lets call out another poor performance from Reaves
5/14 from the field 2/8 from 3pt
5 assists to 3 TOs
He just hasn't been playing to the level we need from him on either side of the ball |

Yeah Reaves have been in a little slump, but it happens.

What the hell are you talking about.?
The lakers had a winning record with AD and without Bron last year. AD got you into the whole day playoffs from below 500 when he returned to over 500 and the 7th seed without the help of Bron just last year
AD has a better record without Bron this year than Bron has without him. In fact Bron is winless without him this year.
That’s a bs take |

But it won him a ring
Ham stole that defense from him. Ham stole the 5 out offense from him. Ham stole Carol as an assistant from him.
I keep saying if you think of firing Ham at this point, you may as well call in Bud because everything is in place for him to fine tune |

Today we double teamed but usually that's the defensive strategy.
We have scrubs like prince playing 32mins/game and cam 24/min. No matter the team they won't do squat.
Vando and Rui are not 3point players either
M smart was 0/13 before he played us and went 5/8, 1 point he was 5/5. JJJ was 4/4 |

We wouldn’t know that, but based on simple math, that’s 9 points off the board for the clippers.
Our 3 point defense is not good, we switch too much and can’t rotate properly, but in some cases, players are designed to be left open |

If the Lakers meet the Clippers in the playoffs, I think the takeaway from this game is Reaves needs to play way less against them. Felt like whoever he was trying to guard tonight scored 50. Then they started sending a double on who he was guarding which opened up other open shots.
I just dont think he can play vs this team

Imho we played our best ball after the trade last year when bron sat. Team is way freer and everyone plays like they will see the ball. But oh well. Fun game to watch and see the team fight.

Someone showed us a stat that said we were something like 24-30 with AD and no LeBron, your post makes me feel better about AD’s leadership |

| I don't wish ill tidings on the clippers, I never have, I rarely ever even think about them. I am going to be really glad next season when they get their own idea. It is insane they've been using ours this entire time. Taylor Swift put up more banners than them in a fraction of the time |
