Well boys and girls, we might be fighting for a playoff spot once AD and LBJ return.

Lord have mercy these guys can't shoot. A whopping 35% from the field in the first half

Looks like another blowout L in the works.

We have 0 chance to win any games unless Kuzma has his head on straight.

Meh. Having the best 1-2 in the league comes at a cost. Especially if both are hurt

I know like 3/5ths of our starting lineup is out, but still, how are we losing to the Pelicans so badly...

Where is the defensive energy? I know we aren't going to win a lot of games without AD and LBJ because we can't score much. But we can't even run back on defense? We are late on every loose ball.

That's the thing... If we make our shots this team can win games with leBron and AD out... We're getting the looks, we're just bricking them.
It would be amazing if someone would step up and star scoring while the big guns are out... Schroder and Kuz are supposed to be those guys, but so far, they ain't showing it.

For some reason they are playing Bledsoe. There’s no reason to not treat him like Tony Allen and tell Dennis roam. That and we made Adams look like Kareem because Harrell in his own words does not want to be a starter and Cacok has no chance versus Adams.
If you make Bledsoe the shooter and at least have someone bother Adams, you cut the lead in half imo

Well, the Lakers managed to score 30 in that 3rd quarter. Problem is that they gave up 43 en route to a 26 point beat down. Absolutely ZERO defense lol, **** embarrasing.
Not looking forward to this next month or so if this is how these guys are gonna play.

Yeah gotta get a real center. Trez/Kieff combo isn't cutting it. They're allowing close to 50+ points in the paint. That is absurd...

Trez, Caruso, and THT... That's our entire functional team at this point. Everyone else is trash-a-lakkan... Kuz made a couple too thought an he's the only one who seems capable of keeping Ingram in check... Although BI didn't seem to like THT's stretch armstrong arms either....

We haven’t made shots in a minute. Right now Kuz is coming off pin downs for shots and KCP spotting up. But you can’t usually pencil in THT, Dennis, or Wes to hit a 3

You can't pencil in anyone on this team to make a 3 anymore... About the closest we had to a solid 3pt shooter was Marc... Speaking of which, WTF is he?
But Caruso and THT hit a couple to keep it a little less embarassing...
