Ariza is done & cooked on the Lakers

If Cluncan continues to look this good, trust me I’ll be the happiest about it of anyone. That’s especially in the likely event that we’re not going to trade him this year.

I’m hoping he hits his stride starting now and into the playoffs and was somehow just playing himself into shape all this time.

Well fwiw his 3P% has steadily increased every month of the season so he's trending in the right direction. Still got a ways to go though cause he's only at 39% for January (after beginning 32% in October). Needs to be hitting at least around 42% for him to be worth playing 28+ mpg

Now he's at 41% in January

Keys to the game listed in order:

1. Contain Monk
2. Don’t let Bradley and Ellington cook us from 3 again
3. Jimmy needs to match LeBron
4. Bam needs to dominate
5. Let Westbrook shoot 30 shots

1. Successful
2. Went 1/2, I miss Bradley and what he brought the few games he did play for us.
3. Ehhhh 50/50 I guess. He was not engaged at all in the 2nd half and shied away at the end.
4. Nope. 14-8-5 on 60% shooting but not dominant. A couple silly TOs, couple silly fouls. Not as aggressive at the previous 2 games, maybe from foul trouble or not wanting to ruin the flow of the game seeing as we went up 26.
5. This bum dominated us of course.

Can't believe we were successful on #1. Dude has always cooked us, so that IMO was the key to our win

He was pretty cooked for us last year too. Spo small ball was the final nail in the coffin.

If Duncan Robinson can make plays like he did against the Lakers, even an off-night won't hurt so bad.
