Really lazy offense by LeBron in this game. A lot of poor decisions.

?s=19

Probably out for a week or two. Tough with Caruso also out. This team is really missing Caruso's energy and hustle right now. Guard depth going to be sketchy over the next few weeks.

These lineups with at least 2 of LeBron/Harrell/Morris manning the 4/5 just do not work defensively. Can't protect the rim and can't secure boards.

Trezz's defense is just awful at times

Feels like SA's game. The keep pulling one shot out of their ass after another.

Why is Vogel closing with Harrell?

It's probably really hard to beat a team two times in a row without playoff level effort.

He's been in for like 12 min of game time already. The Rondo sub pattern.

Bron's shot selection has been absurdly lazy.

I've always wanted carefree LeBron on offense. But maybe this is a little too much. His shot selection has been awful.

MisterHibachi · Post #1831 » by **MisterHibachi** » Sat Jan 2, 2021 3:18 am

Lmao Rudy elbowed LeBron in the face on that tie up. Ridiculous

Insane defensive possession by Schroder

These Spurs commentators are really hard to listen to.

MisterHibachi · Post #1834 » by **MisterHibachi** » Sat Jan 2, 2021 3:22 am

They're jumping on his back on post ups and the refs aren't calling it?

The Schroeder trade is looking better every game.

Yeah that was some truly Kobe-esque chucking in the 2nd half. On the bright side he's shooting 77% at the line so far this season, though he started off shooting FTs well last year too

Harrells gonna be fine when he’s at the 4 and ADs at the 5

Harrell/AD
Harrell/Gasol
AD/Gasol

Have all been really good

AD/Harrell

Has been hilariously bad

Really impressed with Kuzma's defense.

If he continues to play like this, he definitely deserves to be in the closeout lineup over Markieff

Trez's iq specifically in defensive pick and roll situations is awful. Lakers need to work on it rather than thinking schemes are going to fix it. If it were that easy Javale would never have been benched in the playoffs. And yeah Morris isn't a 5 in any lineup, he has even worse positional iq and physical tools to make a difference to paint protection.
