I love Vanderbilt and it’s only been 1 game lol.
He came off the bench with hella defense/energy.
Guy is trending on Twitter right now 😃

Holy fuck its been a while(year) since I posted here

We have to get rid of Ham, I feel like, he was only brought in because the FO thought he could manage Westbrick and get him to come off the bench. Ham was THE guy to Manage Westbrick! :ph34r:
We don't have Westbrick anymore :D , thank god, that was a trade we obviously had to do. We got shooters in Dlo and Beasley :drool: and a good D wing with Vandy :drool: . Rui addition was really nice, his jumper is so smooth, and his length. :drool:

Hams 3-4 Guard lineups are complete trash :wallbash: , Ham doesn't use timeouts to his advantage (stop the momentum of the opposing teams scoring run, advance the ball to half court for a last second shot, just a few examples). <--- Its :mad: MINDBLOWING :mad: that i had to type that. HAM is NOT a NBA level Coach. :rofl: Its time to get rid of him at ASG break. A New lineup with a new coach, I think, would be perfect timing for us moving forward because we have to win GAMES NOW! Coach Ham is a NET NEGATIVE :bonk:

If we were 5-8 seed I would be okay with riding it out with Ham but he is such a NET NEGATIVE at 13th seed where we need all the help we can to win games. We need Ham to be playing chess while other coaches are playing checkers but reality is he's just throwing sticks and stones at the ground. Jeanie buss is so cheap she wont fire him because we gave him a multiyear deal

We really needed to win 3 of the last 4 games here, we only won 1. I sadly think we will miss playoffs by a game or 2 and it will all come down to these games right before the ASG. If we lose tonight its over!

Current Issues:
Ham is ass
Bron sitting games against teams we HAVE TO WIN against right before the ASG! He's sitting these games to get healthy to play in the ASG.
AD looks not healthy (nothing new here but its obvious)

The Lakers lost to the Pelicans 126-131 on Feb 4th and now they play again after the trade deadline.

They used Troy Brown Jr. :rofl: & Patrick Beverley :rofl: as the primary defender on Brandon Ingram and he dropped a season high 35 pts :drool: as well as a season high 28 field goal attempts, so he was pretty comfortable attacking the Lakers defense.

Vando seems like the perfect player to have guarding Ingram, but is there any confidence that Darvin Ham :wallbash: will actually make adjustments and utilize him? :bonk:

I wanna see Rui's Length match with BI and see how Rui does on D, if he gets cooked early sub in Vando

Hams starting lineup will probably be Dlo/shroeder (<--which is obviously a mistake)/Rui/LBJ/AD
Should be Dlo/Beasley/Rui/LBJ/AD *Sub out Beasley with Reeves if he is getting cooked on D and then sub out Rui for Vando if Rui is getting cooked*
use Schroeder as a 6th man

Darvin Ham was asked who the leader and point guard of the bench unit is now that Russell Westbrook is no longer on the team and instead of answering the question, he just said he has some “surprises up my sleeve” that we will find out soon enough.

Ham gunna run the 4 guard death lineup with Mo Bama :wallbash:

God damn Ham.... We got a dub with a decent rotation.... AMAZING RIGHT!
Finally starting Dlo at point...
Not sure why he has dennis starting at point or even at all... If you want defense then start reaves at the 2 for spacing+defense. Dennis should not START... Great 6th man though.
Lakers squad pretty deep B)

We went from LA Wizards to LA wolves.
Lakers starters: Russell, Beasley, LeBron, Vanderbilt and Davis


Lakers’ starters +/- tonight:

Anthony Davis: +18
D’Angelo Russell: +18
Malik Beasley: +15
LeBron James: +14
Jarred Vanderbilt: +10
