I don’t mean to harp on this, but the ball was in DeAndre Jordan’s hands at least four times in this third quarter (up for grabs) and he wiffed on every single rebound.

That Carmelo free-throw was a benchable offense.

He is washed sadly

When healthy we should have AD at the 5, Dwight as the backup

DJ should only play when we are hurt

that bench lineup is going to get Vogel fired. Squanders every lead without fail.

Bron +10. Russ -11. What an awful idea

Fire up those trade ideas

He is the dummy that thought playing Westbrook, Monk and Rondo together was a good idea.

I thought we brought Russ in for that specific reason, cant even do that

Its not all Vogels fault we are hurt and the roster constuction is sub optimal though

I wouldn't pay Rondo and Russ together though

Avery or even Reeves makes sense

No way dude is opting out of 47M. That would be a Schroder level decision.

Curry is 4-18 and the Lakers are losing.

Also, what in the hell happened to AD’s FTs? Used to have 12-13 games and now is lucky to go 6-9.

Besides Bron and Ad the only positive is Bazemores defense. Those 3 are prolly the only 3 the team can count on for consistent defense. He's had Steph in jail
