They desperately need a two-way wing. Vando, Reddish, and Rui are not serious players.

I swear you'd think Vando was prime Scottie Pippen. Ham wouldn't take him out if he didn't pick up a fifth foul. :lol:

Reaves
Prince
LeBron
Hachimura
Davis


This is their best lineup IMO. You can swap Reddish in for Rui as needed too.

Ham is also not a serious coach with this lineup

Vando can’t be moved this year

The issue is who are the 2 way wings available that’s realistic?

So many missed layups for LeBron today. This is what a passive mindset does.

Vando just has no discernable impact unless he has a specific type of player to guard.

Doc and Doris Burke are just hating trolls calling out Ham’s rotations

Nothing good has ever come out of LeBron playing pass-first. Don't know why he does it. Weak performance from him.

Followed that OKC game with a stinker.

3's n layups approach only works if you actually make your layups and actually take 3's. He only got up 2 threes and his finishing has been off since the Indy game. If he's gonna cut middies out of his game then he has get up more 3s. Honestly, he should never attempt fewer than 5.

Bad approach=bad results.
