Drummond is getting torched and AD hasn't boxed a single guy out all game so far, but we look pretty good all things considered.

So happy to see Gasol in there.
He just makes great decisions on both sides of the floor.

How the **** does a depleted Pels team have 39 pts against us?

Pels got big points because Vogel is unsure of himself and still figuring out lineups

Think Schroder just worked himself into a bench role..

We get GSW in the play-in.
I think that’s fine.
AD and LBJ can use another game together before the playoffs start .

Just came in here to say Schroder trash as ****. Since his 4-4 in the 1st he scored only 2 points the rest of the way. SORRY ASS TRASH SCHRODER.

LeBron went after him pretty hard in the 3rd about a missed Defensive assignment, which is why I said he may have played himself to the bench... The offense and the Defense just doesn't look right when he's in with the starters... That said, when he was playing a true 2 next to LeBron and Caruso, he looked decent...
And we're going to need his speed against curry... So he'll probably start against GSW, but after that, I'm betting Caruso and KCP start.

To be fair that is the first game I think he’s had all year with everyone available, and it’s crazy.

I still say rubber meets the road he’s going with what he knows Caruso, KCP, Kuzma, Bron, AD, and Kieff ... Wes and Marc will stay ready so I’m not worried. It’s Harrell, Dennis, and Drummond that go get yanked and sat so fast their heads will spin ... I’m think tucker will be on that short leash Kuzma was on last year and Ben will get his spots like JR and THT were called on last year

I agree with everything you said. I just don't like how guys, not here specifically, tend to overrate his impact. He literally scored 2 POINTS in quarters 2, quarter 3, and quarter 4. That's suppose to be our non-traditional PG worth over 20 mil? Against a inferior Pelicans team on top of that. I didn't even know who was starting at PG for Pelicans...Like I don't see how people are so in love with this dude. If you talk bad about Schroder on LG, his fan brigade will come to his defense and overrate the hell out of this dude. Talking about his feisty defense...Caris LeVert was blowing past him all game when we played the Pacers last game. He's a fouling machine too. I have more faith in AC on Curry than Schroder.
