| Wow, AD could have got 50 points this game if we tried running the offense through him when he was hot. Just total dominance. If he, or Austin, missed any of our free throws we're still watching this one |

All Ham needed was to give DLO 25mins, and this probably not as close. |

| Not an easy game by any means. Torontos been playing some good ball since the OG trade. Ham coaching didn’t help tho. |

Happy to win but we could be doing better with some changing of the lineups. I think we have a better team if we just bring AR back off the bench where he was running away with 6moty and start DLo who runs the offense better even without getting shots.
Have AR come off the bench and just score.
Start Max over Cam. You can still play Cam, just Max makes the starting lineup more dynamic offensively while not losing much defensively.
I'd like to see Rui start over Taurean if the above changes are made, but I doubt that ever happens |

Likely getting traded to the Warriors for Wiggins. |
Would be a horrible trade for the Raps. |
From a basketball standpoint yes, but because they traded for Barrett: If they DO trade for Wiggins, it's obvious to me that they are trying to get all the Canadians that play in the NBA to play on the same team...Sign that they are having trouble selling tickets.

Giving up 131 points to a crap team like the Raptors is telling.
Yet we gave up like 102 to the Clippers.
WTF???
This team needs a better coach.
Guys aren’t prepared or motivated to be consistent.
Davis played great….others guys were good but we should have won by 20. |

AD for MVP if he says healthy...Who is playing better on BOTH SIDES of the ball?

I agree with you 100%. Sub LeBron out earlier and reduce his minutes until the second half?
I am not knowledgeable to judge Ham much and the pod, "Lakers Film Room" that I rely upon to get info assessing him, tend to lay low because they are employed by the team in some manner.

Clippers play heavy iso so their offense will stagnate occasionally. We actually match up well with them. |

Yeah nobody was looking for AD in the 3rd till DLO came in. And then we finally went back to him in the 4th.

If we end up in a play in spot I highly doubt he will be considered for MVP, it’s gonna be between Jokic and Embiid |

The 3’s that were wide open and was a defensive scheme |

Hard disagree with Russell over Reaves starting. Russell needs more than 17 minutes, but Reaves shouldn't be score-first. He should be all around connector/finisher/initiator next to LeBron, picking his spots. I saw Reaves cut off Schroder drives tonight, get 7 assists and 0 turnovers. Sure his shot was off, but I'm not worried about that.
I think you guys need to go back and watch last years' playoffs. |

You are probably right. But Prince and Cam just need more consistent offense. |

| Glad we squeezed out a win. Prince is a (bleep) moron, though. Wtf was he thinking going all out to contest that last three? There was literally no way an open three would do anything against us. The only thing that could have cost us was fouling and giving up a possible and one on a three. Just concede the damn shot. |
