Just a bad idea for Ham to sit both dlo and AD tonight we lost the lead both times. We got no 3rd dominant scorer tonight. Then we keep giving up easy baskets and off rebs.

Down 10.

We have to play flawless ball the rest of the way to come back.

Defense really let us down this Q

3:19 left. Down by 9.

Defense. For f sake.

Every offensive possession should go through Reaves, AD and D Lo.

In the four quarters we gave up 31, 31, 23, 27. It would be interesting to know the defensive stats with / without D Lo on the floor. Same with Reaves.

Those d on barett was just horrible those layups and that 3 by him were killers. Wish LeBron magnificently comes back nxt week lol. Troy Brown is a decent role player but not close to borderline all star. Really needed him to knock down all those open 3s he had but he couldn't cash in. Cuz our shooters(Beasley and Brown Jr) struggled and lack of shooting(vanderbilt) the Knicks defense able to crowd up on AD. Losing Bamba Hurt too. At least he can hit open 3s and block shots. Oh well onto the nxt one. We better not lose to the Pelicans.

AD's handle is broken... And Dlo made some questionable passes... Turnovers were huge against us, along with defense in the paint...

It was just one of those games where AD looked like he was thinking about his taxes or something... Good but no where near his best.

Hit the open jumpers we had and protect the ball a little more and this is a W...

Oh, well tho... It was always going to be a tough win for us, especially with no LeBron... I think we could have won it, but whatever...

D Lo’s transition defense is non existent. This cost us like 15-20 easy Knicks points tonight. Layups.

Honestly they lost thing game because Ham had no pulse on that lineup. Second unit was lacking tonight and I really think he should be staggering DLO/AD as much as possible until LBJ returns. They got crushed when they were on the bench. Rui is starting to play like he deserves more time and it could be at the expense of Wenyen

The reserves were actually good tonight. We outscored theirs 43-25.
Issue was Beasley and Brown went 4-20.
And AD with only 17 points.
He had a great rebounding game but he should have dominated offensively which he didn’t .

IDK... Gabriel looked like trash tonight... He struggles defending the paint against most teams... We really could use Bamba.

For all the praise about the trade made, I think it's time to acknowledge only 2/3 pieces worked out.

Malik Beasley has been absolute, utter garbage. Dude has had 2 good games against Portland and the Warriors.

That's it. He shoots around 20% from 3 if you exclude these 2 games.

He should be losing his starting spot really, if he's not making 3's he really has no use on a team.


Troy Brown has always been a scrub who couldn't get minutes anywhere he went after the Wizards. He got every chance to suceed there but couldn't keep his job because how terrible he is.
I'm not really expecting much from him.

These two are killing us. We almost won in spite of them, we'll be fine.

I didn’t see the game but I had a feeling TBJ would come down to earth after being on fire the past 5-6 games or so. He is shooting 36 % even after going for 0-8? For none shooters like him and Schroder, Ham should expect this and be quicker to react and yet he still played more minutes than Reaves?
