| The NBA needs to finally eliminate back-to-backs. Or if you're going to do it, have it be a series of 2 where both teams don't have to travel and have ample rest before and after. |

It’s an organizational loss. They didn’t address the C spot when Bamba went down. It’s not fair what they asked the players to do tonight. AD needs to play and they need to sign a C until Bamba returns. They need to decide if they want to make the playoffs or not. This isn’t the time for load managing. |
This is 100% correct. It’s a shock that the plan wasn’t to use a 10-day contract for this B2B and then use a 10-day contract for the B2B in April. |

Someone needs to call them out for this BS |

They have a backup big. AD AND LBJ can play center. Another big would be the 4th option and would see no playtime |
Nope, Bron aint center lmfao. That another big is for reserve purposes in case AD cant play 1 game. |

| This team isn't making 6th spot. Prepare for the play-in. Hopefully they don't draw the Nuggets in round one. |

What an awful and costly loss all because of basketball incompetence.
It’s (bleep) unacceptable honestly. Better win a game they aren’t supposed to now…and even worse they are running out of room for anymore (bleep) ups. |

You already know what's coming. We let guys like Caruso walk over $$, better believe she will pull the same. |
I agree letting AC go was the absolute worst but I wouldn’t consider that penny pinching. She gave all of AC’s money to THT ☠️☠️☠️
We also have the 7th highest payroll in the league. |

| Lack of size? Sure. But wouldn’t that mean we should be able to move the ball better and getting better shots? We are 9-42 from the 3, how can anyone expect to win games with numbers like that? The effort tonight is just not there |

League needs to give multiple challenges or not have you lose it if you are successful with it. League doesn't want the stoppages? Then have your officials be better. Should also have a third party watching the games at home to make the calls to speed it up and keep the officials from ruling on their own calls |

He's played center before pretty successfully. Obviously not against larger centers but he can rotate to the position for smaller teams, which there are a good number of.
In the Laker's championship year playing Dwight was a liability except for ONE MATCHUP and that was the Nuggets. |

| The looks from 3 just aren't as good with no AD and LeBron to draw attention. |

| Playing AD on a minutes restriction shouldn't have been an issue. They just needed 24 minutes of AD to win this game. |

| What a (bleep) start that was the precursor to a terrible game and Russell gets cold when we need him the most. |

It wasn't a bad game after the (bleep) start. Down by 12 and ended up losing by 4 |

You never know this forum has so many doctors until AD sits out a game. |
