Which Rob works for the Lakers?

 

[essential1]

Zubac > Okafor

 

[sizzlejkd]

Mozgov > Okafor

Lakers offense is too much one-on-one and not enough ball movement. Too stagnant, which makes it easy for the defense to play defense.

 

[essential1]

Nwaba isn't a good fit in the starting lineup... Just can't put him out when no one other than Russell is a knockdown shooter..

Goes back to point above.... Makes P&R even more difficult as well when there's no reason to not help off the perimeter

 

[essential1]

Good minutes by Clarkson... He really should be coming in, and looking to play a lot like Westbrook... The idea that he's there to attack, and keep attacking.

So long as he's playing within the offense, and keeping his head up looking for cutters, and open men, it should give us the returns we're looking for (Second half of his rookie season numbers off the bench)

 

[sizzlejkd]

Ennis more active than Russell so far

 

[sizzlejkd]

DLo now playing the 2 with Ennis running the point. Let's see how he fares.

edit* - well that didn't last long. Ennis now on the bench

Ennis is never actually the point regardless of who he is playing with... Because whether it's Clarkson or Russell, they'll do the lion's share of ball handling and distributing

So Ennis would be PG in Name Only

 

[sizzlejkd]

Shaw coaching DLo on the timeout telling DLo he has to get back on defense as DLo was trying to coach Ingram lol. Shaw promptly got in Russell's face and told Russell that he was in the wrong.

The previous play, DLo passed the ball to Clarkson, who missed a three. DLo just stood there by the three point line while Clarkson's man released on the other end and scored an easy layup. DLo should've gone back on defense to provide support.

DLo has got to stop acting like he's the coach on the floor and start playing hard every minute he's out there.

 

[sizzlejkd]

Now Clarkson the one guilty of not covering the other player releasing for yet another easy lay up.

Our guards' defense is horrendous. No court awareness whatsoever.

 

[moonman818]

Ingrams's mid range is nooooiiiiicee

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Look at Zu god. And people were upset we didn't trade for nerlens. Lolz

 

[sizzlejkd]

Russell with the spark

 

[sizzlejkd]

Then Russell with the bonehead play, kicking it out of bounds because dude too busy tryna be the coach on the floor. Jesus Christ.

 

[MVP]

D'Lo in lala land tonight. 

 

[sizzlejkd]

DLo shaqtin a fool.

Wanna get away? (Southwest Airlines voice)

 

[moonman818]

D Lo

 

[sohi 23]

Dlo partied too hard last night. First weekend after turning 21? [emoji]128064[/emoji] Lol.

 

[essential1]

Then Russell with the bonehead play, kicking it out of bounds

I saw it coming.. The second Randle random threw it to the side, instead of forward..

I was yelling Russell... Russell.. RUSSELL...

Yeah man, that was comedy. And the funny thing, after the play DLo tried to play it off by continuing to coach and point towards Randle as if to give directions lmao

Definitely will be on the next shaqtin

 

[dceja]

It's all for the tank dlo just following orders

 

[sizzlejkd]

I think we are watching the future tonight: Ingram on pace for 20+ and Zubac doing big thangs on both ends of the court.

The more and more I watch this team, the more and more I think these two are the future, not Russell and Randle.

 

[sizzlejkd]

Randle getting no love from the refs
