Remember when this team moved the ball and defended? Those were the days. Now each of these guys thinks he can beat the other team by himself.

Great game management

I mean besides emptying the bench.... Not sure what Joe can do? ... Maybe benching Tatum and Brown on tnt would send a message.... But my god everyone looks absolutely horrible....

I like it early in the clock or semitransition or when we do it off a ton of movement. Otherwise it just stagnates everything and it’s so predictable

This game is over. Letting them get that huge lead early killed them.

He can play Springer, Walsh, Haser, PP
Get White and Jrue out
They are abysmal on both ends

Would be nice if the bench would contribute something. Looking at you Hauser and PP.

Can’t crack 70 pts after 3. This is wild. Full squad too.

Does Tatum have some sort of brain damage and thinks it’s illegal to dribble into the key?

How many dribble step backs does this idiot want to attempt?

I’m sick of us rolling over to this garbage ass Lakers team every year
