We already have a massive spacing issue lets not compound it with a lineup where we are requiring Rondo to provide the spacing for us.

Blessing. We need LeBron for the playoffs and for the young guys to get better and develop with him off the court. Win-win.

The problem is Western Conference is too tight to have a losing streak now. Hopefully the young fellas can deliver, we need to keep winning at all costs.

This team is at it's best with Bron and Rondo. Having them both out is going to be difficult.

I disagree with starting Hart. It isn't best for the defense because he is a weak defender. It also isn't best for Ball. I would start KCP and let the guys who played last year mostly play together. Then I would let Hart sub out for whenever one of Kuzma and Ingram rest to get all his minutes. Lance can play with Ball or KCP. Tyson backs up Javale. We play a short rotation, no time waiting on Svi or Mo to contribute.

This.

And it’s not structural damage but 100% recovery can be expected, so that maybe makes it a win-win-win.

Yuck. Not a good start for Ingram, and that blown lay-up by Hart that lead to a 3 in transition for the Kings was bad too.

Ingram's isolation game is so dog sh*t. He was never very good to begin with, but feels like he's actually gotten worse.

Yeah, he's way better when he's on the move. No idea why Luke allows him to settle for that crap.

Lonzo's shot has looked better this game and not just because he's making it. At the beginning of the year, he wasn't bringing the ball as low which made it seem like he was shooting it with his feet set shoulder width apart. When he gets into trouble is when it reverts to last year's form and he really slings it around.

What is with Cauley Stein's face? His tattoo's look like large zits.

Line up next game should be Zo / KCP / BI / Kuz / Zu. There should at least be a vet in there to play with the kids.

Luke started the right lineup. Those are our five best players. Hart will come back with a 35pt game.
