Wesbrick is such a low iq player..
They are wasting Reaves’ talent by pairing him with trashbrook

Since the Lakers went to Small Ball, their defense is horrific. That won't work.

Re: Wed 1/12 Game Thread
Westbrook with just 1 turnover. Must have had another great game then?

Up until 2 years ago he was really good. But he isn't aging well. He is done

Westbrook has been scoring in single digits for the past 3 games. 9 points, then 6, and now 8.

If they could somehow trade Westbrook for a 2nd Austin Reaves they'd probably be contenders again, as crazy as that sounds.
Can't believe Russ jacked an iso off-the-dribble 3 in crunch time right there![]()
Literally the worst outcome for the Lakers offense and he walks right into it
Don't forget jacking a 3 with 33 seconds left in the 3rd, bricking it which led to a fast break layup for the Kings, then on the next play he loses the ball, leading to a 3 for the Kings with 3 seconds left. Dumbest player in the league, but at least he gets to yell and scream when he hits 1 of his 20 lay up attempts.
LeBron was amazing in this game and kept them in it, Monk and LeBron gave them a good lead, but theres only so much you can do.

Is Kuzma a better player than Westbrick at this point?

Why? Because he seems to refuse to acknowledge reality?

Tells a lot when Westbrook despite having poor shooting night finishes the game off with better +/- than James. Nothing short of disaster that inside defense and I believe he left his man wide open 4-5 times which they converted 3 or 4 shots. One of them being the crucial game sealing 3 pointer. Scoring 34 points is cute and all until you give up 60 points inside every game because not making any effort defensively as a center.

Re: Wed 1/12 Game Thread
Kings had 70 points in the paint, that's just atrociously bad defense by the Lakers.
