Too many people in here actually forgot how lethal this team is before Lebron went down?
All the stagnant plays with Lebron today were because of Darvin's poor lineup decisions too no damn surprise. Seriously frustrating as Darvin turned a corner before believing in Lonnie and Malik again.
You know the answer to that question.. there is games were AD goes through the motions
Got beat up today physically by a couple of Mack trucks in Vucevic (before he got tossed) and Andre DUMBmond.
Darvin gonna put in Troy Brown at power forward to help AD though LOL
Always been the case
This season that case has been a lot, he let Gobert have a 20/10 game he had that brain fart against Dallas the other night, I’m almost certain AD gets traded if we don’t make a run this season

Rui DNP?
The dude brain freeze whenever there is a lineup change.
I didn't watch the game, so can someone who did tell me how and why AD only attempted 8 f'ing field goals?? Is it the bron effect, bron comes back and AD regresses to a weak puppy dog again? I mean 15 and 9 ain't gonna get the job done...

Nah, good chance that I’m right assuming we get bounced in the play in or the 1st round, Lakers aren’t gonna bring this team back together if we can’t make noise with this roster

I would believe if we actually gave Rui some minutes today over Lonnie and Malik we probably would of defended Lavine and Derozan better?
Instead we chose to give Vando to guard Demar, which only seemed to be in the first half????
and Let Dennis guard Lavine? I seen Troy and Austin on Zach a few possessions but tbh it just seemed like there was no real defensive strategy today as Zach was basically wide open 80% of his 30 points today ☠️

He was doubled some times but overall it just looked like he was going through the motions. Some foul trouble probably didn't help either. Darvin schemed the whole offense around Beasley too and he kept launching bricks.

It takes him likes 5 games to get adjusted.
Lol
Next game is a must win
He managed to sneak in the Dennis, Lonnie, and Malik lineup again for a few minutes when we got down 20 in the 3rd quarter.
Perfect small guard lineup to guard Demar and Zach Lavine ☠️
I'll admit Darvin was turning a corner. Before Lebron got hurt he changed the lineups with starting DLO over Dennis. Having DLO, Bease, Lebron, Vando, and AD. For once we actually looked like a playoff team.
Then Lebron and Mo Bamba got hurt and Darvin continued loading up our lineups with defensive minded bigger wings like Troy and Rui.
We survived Lebron's absence by winning games still.
Then Lonnie gets hot, wins us a game against The Thunder and Darvin goes back to low IQ offensive minded first lineups today ☠️

They also went to Bron in the post in place of him on his catches. It was a disjointed game for everyone not just AD. Dude literally had 5 fouls in the third because as stu said the perimeter guys let Derozan and Lavine get to the rim. And I’m still not sure why he thought it’s a bright idea to go Vandy in Derozan, Reaves on Lavine, and Troy on Pat Bev to start the game.
To stop dribble penetration they went Lonnie at 3 and Troy at 4 with AD lol. Stu said it best the pertinent needed to take responsibility for his foul trouble as AD was cleaning up an open door. Then they watched the lineup of AR, Beasley, Vando, and Gabriel go down a negative double digits both half. When ad sat it was a game. But the unit he used got obliterated to start the second and 4th with those 4

Based off your past posts there is never a good chance you’re right or know what an actual bit of news is.
Since you posted that he’s more likely to be extended tbh

Imagine the last game without the Lakers making their 3's around AD's doubles. That is basically what happened here.

Giving my thought on possibilities isn’t the same as sharing something
Teams play the game of "not letting AD beat them". Our role players got open threes but just were not knocking them down. It's dumb to force up a shot whenever AD got double teamed. _________________ Playoffs is good enough. - Jeanie Buss 2024
Horrible rotations from Ham. Why this dude never takes a time out when teams go on major runs is beyond me. Donovan made like 3 timeouts every time a run was happening.
Dude is such a Ham coach. But we should be way better than our record suggests when healthy.
Lebron back and him and AD healthy along with the depth should make a run these last few games.

Rui DNP?
Here's Darvin Ham's explanation of why Rui Hachimura didn't get into today's game:
Nothing Darvin could have done to win this game. Lakers just got their asses kicked on their home floor in a really important game. Bulls were a lot more focused and ready to play.
