| based off his past box scores, it seems like he will throw up bad nights like Saturday and then there are some nights where he can't miss. |

He has a reputation as a shooter, defenders can’t sag off of him which helps us a lot. He may not make shots always but he does change the way defenses play us |

True, it's good to have someone that can do that again...the last one was probably KCP. |

Opponents defense certainly governed by his 3pt shooting |

He's a hot and cold player, but as others have said, he provides invaluable gravity
Should get even more open looks once Bron comes back in

Yes, simply a statistic…. My snarkiness is that every time the Lakers add “shooters” they find a way to not matter in the win column.. |

6/12 from the 3 tonight
Not a guy teams will leave open, but Ham will not play him with our playmakers so he won’t get good looks |

Should be a penciled in starter from the start...
Proven 20ppg scorer shooter... But Ham's crazy line-ups won't allow it. |

Schro has had some good games...26 and 24 in the two games prior to tonight...but you have to start a top 5 3pt shooter with Dlo. I had thought that for continuity Schro would be the best option but backtracking on that now.
Dlo's height and playmaking with Beasley's shooting make up for the point of attack defense that Schro brings. Plus Reaves is out of position at the back up PG so Dennis is better suited there with Reaves at back up SG.
Dlo/Schro
Beas/LW4
LBJ/Reav
AD/Rui
Mo/Vandi
Reed/Max/TBjr/Gabe deep reserves

Agreed I really don't care which one starts but Ham needs to settle on either DLo or Dennis to start and the other one to lead the bench. I'm guessing it might be easier to keep DLo as the starter. |

Dlo should start and Walker or Beasley should be the 2 next to him. Preferably Walker but Schro should be the backup 1.

| I hope DLo-Beasley back court is good enough defensively cause offensive potential is off the chart |

Played decent defense.
Not elite obviously but passable for the playoffs.

| Ham needs to give him consistent minutes in lineups with AD/Vando/Lebron. I don't care about the percentage, just make sure he gets the shots and keeps shooting. |

It helped that he wasn’t on SF all night. Minny was using him as a 3 and Vando as a 4. The year before Minny was using them as a 2 and 3
He provided them with spacing and people were chasing him in the half court which is all AD and Bron can ask for spacing wise |
