He’s been playing a bit too fast when he’s the PG of the second unit.

I can pretty much live with Green on Harden, Kuzma on Russ, and KCP spelling either of them based off this game. I especially can with AD behind them

Thank god for common sense. Kuz starts the 4th because Russ started it. Danny Green would bve out there over Bradley for me too

Houston is bricking some wide open threes. Lakers need to makes sure they close out on those. They won't keep on missing.

you can leave House all day. It is what Memphis and the other teams have done their last 5 games. Each team they play gives cushion to Russ, doubles off House, chases Gordon, and rotates to House last or gives him an open one. Pringles go bench his ass soon

take Bradley out for Green and close this out. Win this game and you got a toss up between KCP, Javale, and Kuz for POTG. Green, Dwight, and Bron showed up too
