I'm not saying he's worthy of his high pick. I'm just saying. If you are a coach, and you are winning games, you don't alter your lineup unless you start losing. Why edit something that win?
I am not saying Lakers won two straight games just because Lonzo was starting.


Because matchups zeb...

Not every opponent is the same

I agree with the why fix what aint broke notion, but there are valid reasons on the contrary

no no dont get it twisted

but i do think luke effed up some players' rhythms last night

hes got his hands full right now though in terms of expectations and unexpected hiccups (suspensions)

i think we NEED to make a trade for a big.... mcgee aint gonna hold up this pace for 60++ games

whats greg monroe up to in TO? still buried behind ibaka and jvs mins?

we really should have tried harder to keep lopez.

its funny to me when mcgee's off the floor (and lebron is the biggest laker) yet he's not on the block defending bigs.... he manned up a bit last night eventually on lamarcus but still... lol

I was saying it since we started signing free agents, we need an actual center behind McGee, McGee is gong to be in foul trouble so many games, this is a problem he's had throughout his career, it's not something new. I don't understand the Beasley signing, we need a Center.

Losing Randle is huge, he may not have been a center but he was a bruiser who would take the challenge and defend there big. This teams would be so Gucci with McGee/Randle center options.

Big game tonight, let's see how BI plays after coming back from suspension. I think this game is going to be a little ugly on Lakers part because Rondo and BI are back in the mix. Rotations might be off and may throw some of the Lakers off, meaning more TOs than usual.

I like this starting lineup tonight

Ingram
Kuz
LBJs
MCGee

Can Rondo lead the 2nd unit

If we keep getting east buckets like that. Defense leads to easy buckets let's go.
