Aldama goes down again. That's $10.00 he's already made for the night

D Lo is playing very solid offense. His defense is improving. Good to see. Reddish, too.

I’d like to see LBJ and D Lo posting up while Wood and AD play PnR by the perimeter. Reaves can run point. AD and Wood can be used as wings.

Aldama is up to $15... he might just be able to afford an uber to the hotel at this rate

We’ll be tough to beat with a healthy roster. We’re already playing well without some key players. Vando will make such a difference with his perimeter defense and length.

So I cut the cord a couple of years ago so I haven’t been able to watch games as often as I want to. Last night I saw that it was going to be on Amazon prime. I got my snacks ready, I got my drink on ready, I took care of distractions (sent my wife to her mother’s) got ready to watch the game and the dread screen pop up on my TV. “Due to zoning your broadcast is not available” the Eff? I settled for the Clippers game on Sling. Please kill me.

I agree. Vando needs to basically start right away as soon as he's healthy.

D-Lo/Reddish/Vando/LeBron/AD

Reaves, Hachimura, Wood off the bench playing the majority of minutes. Enough for one spot left which will probably be Prince.

The big question comes when Vincent is healthy. If Reddish is balling, how do you take him out of the rotation?

This is how. :D

If Reddish is balling, and D Lo is balling, you make a trade package around them for Zach Lavine or DeMar DeRozan. Then start Reaves at point guard.

Reaves
Lavine / DeRozan
Vando
LBJ
AD

Ring caliber starting five.

Edit: the defense, the fast breaks…
