Okay. I'll give him credit for leaving DLo in, as opposed to benching him most of the 4th quarter against the Nuggets. |

Whenever Bron is on the court, it seems everyone defers to him. And it causes everyone to stand around and watch and wait.
Its not necessarily LeBron's fault. Because he has been trying to play off the ball. Its a natural reaction from the rest of the guys on the court |

Ham made a very good challenge at the end that was on point!! |
We won a close game with him as coach!! He didn't screw it up!! Is that credit? |

I'm not so sure. A regular title maybe. The bubble, not sure i have not loved a Laker team post Lebron, title or not. Still a fan but not fun to watch. But that's me. Others can disagree. Seen too many titles for a bubble chip to move the needle for me. |

I agree on that. As much as I have my issues with ham. I have to give him credit when it's due. |

He is a very smart bball IQ dude....if we figured it out, Im sure he knows too how well the offense runs with the ball in D'Lo's hands....as Im sure D'Lo (another highly intelligent player) is aware as well. He needs to be Kobe of 2001. Learn how to fit in to make us better as a whole. The dude is a freight train and excellent cutter, spot up shooter and post up player. Dude can fit in anywhere and can take controls if need be. |

I give props to DLO for stepping up against BOS and tonight... But he needs to be the defacto 3rd guy on this team. When Lebron is playing they need to take the ball out of AR's more.
Seems like the issue having too many ball handlers with DLO/AR/Lebron... But 2 ballhandlers you can maximize DLO more. |

You mean you want to give him credit for doing the obvious near the end of the game? Even "I love to horde my timeouts" Ham had no choice. Let's not giving him credit for not being an absolute moron and remember he is still a moron.

Lebron is already deferring this season... His usage rate this year is his 2nd lowest in his career since his rookie year. |

Lebron is not our issue, and he has been great this season, but I do feel other players seem to defer too much when he is on the court especially AR and DLO. Lebron is shooting nearly 41% from the 3 on high attempts(by far the career high) |

Okay. I'll give him credit for leaving DLo in, as opposed to benching him most of the 4th quarter against the Nuggets. |
How bout his closing defensive lineup? He took Dlo out and put Dinwiddie in.

Cant complain about that. Frankly though dude has been so bad that it feels like broken clock situation. He needs to show more for me to actually want to give him credit. |

DLO had more big games next to Lebron done AR... AR should be the 6th man off the bench. Like I been saying we need a defensive guard who can also score.
But I don't think one is attainable unless we trade one of AR or Rui. We just don't have the money. |

The silver lining for basically last trade year’s deadline and forward is how we now have the roster to win without Lebron.
Which is why it’s hilarious when LeKlutch like to blame everyone else. The truth keeps coming out louder and louder… |
