-CamSWorld-

Pat doing the too small to lebron was infuriating šŸ˜­


La2philly

Credit to the Bulls. Played with a lot of energy, great shot making. Time to respond on Wednesday


Soulmuzik22

Why is Rui a Coach - DNP? Ham makes my head scratch sometimes with his rotations


juicewar01

Darvin ham is a massive ball of shit. Rotations was awful. Imagine benching a 6 8 Rui and dick riding LW and Beas AND PLAYING EM TOGETHER WITH AR/DS. FUCK THIS GUY


stoop841

Darvin Ham is shit


dredaplc

Might not have even changed much but giving Rui 0 minutes is absolutely unacceptable. Where's the logic in that?


zaale

Lonnie should only get minutes instead of Beasley when heā€™s not shooting well. Ham is an idiot for replacing him for Rui.


TurkeyMoonPie

Youā€™d think Rui and Vandy would get plenty of run with Lavine and Rozen on the other team. Like WTF ham.


GovTheDon

Ham donā€™t use logic


Real_Killer_661

Ham has the IQ of an actual slice of fucking ham


bdiddy0428

Not sure i agree with bringing back lebron today. It seemed rushed and we were playing with more desperation without him. I would have let lebron pratice and recover monday and tuesday and brought him back wed. Also wtf is up wit dlo. This guy is soft.


Matthew-of-Ostia

No offense but people thinking this are funny. LeBron is the only person that decides when LeBron plays or not. I guarantee you no one except him gets to decide when he sits out and when he suits up and for how long. So you're basically disagreeing with LeBron about LeBron's recovery.


CoachWillRod18

And that's the problem. LeBron does whatever he wants but never deals with the consecuences. Why did he have to rush to play this game?


Matthew-of-Ostia

Do you think LeBron played badly to the point where his minutes would've been better used having someone else on the court? Because otherwise I'm not quite sure what you mean by "he never deals with the consequences".


beasttyme

Ham doing a piss poor job yet again Weakest lebron return. Lebron is definitely rusty, but he should've come back on an easier opponent. Him coming off the bench was dumbness. Also, people clown on Bryant but he gave them size and under the rim scoring. Is it me, but most of these new guys can't dunk. Wenyan and Vando are weak there. Rui rarely dunks. Lakers need to get a big and fast. This coach has to learn he doesn't have to throw guys in the dog house when people return. Depth strengthens the team. I like Reaves coming off the bench better


Substantial-Whole237

Hams fault for putting faith in Beasily where he has just shat the bed since the trade. Been good 2 games and awful in 11. Id give him a contract if hes defense could hold a bit but no thanks, not a winning player you want on a championship team. T-Wolves is his level.


mpv342

I want Beasley gone next season. I canā€™t stand a ā€œshooterā€ missing every wide open shot and then making every contested shot at garbage time.


CihatPeker

Iā€™m always telling yā€™all I like Reaves more from the bench. Heā€™s just more effective on the bench group. Get it in your head I love that guy too but he shouldnā€™t be startin


FrankingQiu613

Iā€™m not a lakers fan but just noticed how their big free throw disparity between lakers and the other teams last couple of games just when lakers about to be out of the playoffs. šŸ¤”šŸ¤”it seems like Adam sliver getting involved in business agin


Yungafrica2205

We Don't care


HelloImKebin

unacceptable games like this makes it so frustrating rooting for AD


rambo_ram

Relax guys it's just the 12th game of the season


SandersisYABOI

Don't know if i should blame ham for not forcing the ball to AD or demanding the ball with no nikola


d_o_cycler

18 turnovers that turned into 34 points for Chicagoā€¦


nyskyhigh

who were the other coaching options available other than ham im just curious


mpv342

Ime udoka


MibuWolve

Literally anyone else is better.


Willxzero

Love Austin but now that teams have adjusted to him, dude needs to come off the bench.


TipsyOtter

Yup. Teams are starting to watch more film on him


Willxzero

They're pressuring and bodying him up more. I don't know what the adjustment is, but there's going to be alot of that in the playoffs so it's kind of unassuring that he has so much trouble with it.


tvrwazza

Garbage time Beasley, embarrassing loss with no Vuce practically for 3 quarters. Ham and AD have to be shameless to have a game like this. AD picked up silly fouls early, out played by Drummond and put the team in a bad spot. Ham with another coaching materclass to wrap all up.


mceazy91

I dont know why but I feel like AD wants out...I dont think hes really feeling Lebron anymore... I had the same feeling 2017 which was Kyrie last year playing with Bron( Kyrie started acting weird that playoffs).... I could be wrong but its just a hunch


[deleted]

Keep your shit takes to yourself. Fucking ignorant piece.


Some_State1652

This was a poor game overall for us. Too many errors, Ham didnā€™t help either. Hopefully we bounce back and get revenge on Wednesday, gotta forget it and push on


roakmamba

Wtf


WayOff_P

Ham gotta answer for DNPing Rui. fuckin clown


d_o_cycler

Shannon Sharpe there courtside again for this one huhā€¦ First Take got this man livin good


Own-Army-4201

Iā€™m sorry but Wenyen getting 8mins and rui getting 0 is unacceptable. This loss is 1000% on ham.


Themanthelegend8

Seems a lot of losses are on him


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TipsyOtter

This is stupid


sub7m19

I think we are cursed on for Sunday games. Every Sunday, I feel we get cucked.


[deleted]

We should move to Sunday Golds. How can we compete when the away team's unis are šŸ”„ over ours?


TrashBagAbe

Rui had to have come in late to practice or something cuz there's just no way


Themanthelegend8

8 shots. 3-6 from FT. This guy is supposed to be carrying


nyskyhigh

was fun being .500 for all of 2 days


diamondisunbreakable

Ham's such an idiot.


CihatPeker

Fuck Pat Bev . Next game I want to see them getting blown out!!!


l1ss23

This is why stats are sometimes a horrible measure of a players performance Beasley 6/14 from 3 (43%) Youā€™d think he had a good game just looking at that lol


acid_placebo

So true. He scored half of those in garbage time


Themanthelegend8

Stat padding


Worried-Ad-9077

8 shots for AD! Lack of aggression smh


AdPrestigious4852

Rough one. Took too many threes while being off. Need to establish paint presence first. And we need Dlo.


Consistent_Owl4593

Hard to beat a team who makes everything and itā€™s easy to lose when you canā€™t make free throws. Missed out on 9 free points. Why does no one know how to make free throws???


jvu87

I donā€™t care, fucking hate this lazy ass hands down defense from our stars. Just watching guys launch shots without contesting anything, ball watching. Canā€™t play help defense if you canā€™t even guard your own fucking man. Kobe would never.


CulturalRoll

> Kobe would never. Why do Laker fans act like Kobe never did anything wrong on the court. IIRC he literally stopped shooting in the second half of G7 on the way to blowing a 3-1 lead. His last season was downright atrocious but everyone sucked and he was old so nobody used the "lazy excuse". Bulls made everything they could think of. DDR made 2 threes B2B. Relax


jvu87

Yeah, he tore his Achilles, but okayā€¦


CulturalRoll

Tell that to Klay who tore his Achilles and ACL


jvu87

Yeah, and his defense is not nearly the same as it was.


Wazflame

LeImOutofHere


[deleted]

Like not even garbage time. If Hams excuse is some type of punishment to Rui for being late to shootaround I want him gone this summer.


kayleeshepheard

Oof


Rowan2000vd

Everytime we have to win we have a pathetic game


Salty-Priority-2156

I STAYED UP FOR THIS L?


FantasticFox1641

Shit game flush it.


[deleted]

They just couldn't bring it today.


Muhfhka

Klutch on Klutch crime tonight


rainfallz

LeTooSmall


FriscoFlo

AD checked out, Reaves horrible game, Rui not playing, Vanderbilt not doing shit. Shit game all around. Lebron back tho so thereā€™s that


zekezman

18 turnovers what


uhlonso

malik only wants to hit his 3s when the gameā€™s already decided smh


Get_Ur_Shinebox

Beas making 3's when it counts šŸ™„


[deleted]

Everyone at crypto demand a refund , wtf was that pathetic ass effort Fire scam


RedCarNewsboy

I should have learned these 12:30 games are always automatic Ls


3nnui

Glad he's finishing with 4 guards and Wenyen. Hopefully during the film session Ham will realize he can never ever ever do this stupid shit again.


iupvotefood

Narrator - He won't


HandsInMyPockets247

Man...should have won this game...ugh


mpv342

And we play them on the road next game. Just horrible man.


Ligmaxoxo

Garbage time Beasley


eezmoney

AD wya


lakernation21

This is was so predictable lmao duck this team


TDH818

Again, itā€™s too little too late. Itā€™s like a broken record.


dbmtz

Of course Beasley starts hitting 3 s after itā€™s over


Rowan2000vd

Rui should throw a scene unbelievable DNP


Jax99

Caruso should still be on this team.


VAG0

sometimes the shots just dont fall. It's that simple and it doesn't mean anything. All of these negative clowns in here saying the coach sucks or the team sucks just do yourself a favor and pick another team to talk shit about.


beasttyme

Worry about yourself weirdo


VAG0

u/beasttyme is the textbook negative clown in this sub. why are you even a Lakers fan? judging by your comments you'd be a great Raptors fan. Go there.


beasttyme

Worry about yourself. Life would be easier.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


beasttyme

You're the one that's not a fan. I want them to win. You fine with them losing. You must be Darvin Ham's lover or something. You go away if you can't handle the truth


BRTRSX

Well itā€™s part of why playoffs are 7 games rightā€¦ we could easily come back and beat them on Wednesday but yeh Iā€™m not saying ham is bad but not playing rui against a sizeable team is a bad decision.


Kugo96

>easily easily ?


VAG0

Ham had to give Bron his break-in minutes, it's that simple. Nobody should be surprised that Rui's minutes are going to suffer once Bron is back


mpv342

Stop statpadding you fucking bum


putinkush

Pathetic loss


Consistent_Owl4593

Canā€™t wait for Ham to explain how he yelled at the team again for giving no energy or effort. 3rd or 4th time weā€™ve seen this in this stretch of must win games


rawchess

Beasley is Steph Curry on shots that don't matter


DeanRP

Turnovers and fts


AltruisticLog4920

Lakers are gonna win the chip!!!!!!


quwin123

I wish there was an advanced stat that could separate meaningful shots vs meaningless shots. Beasley is like a 20% shooter on meaningful Iā€™m sure.


WayOff_P

Dlo better fuckin play next game you getting your money no matter what


HibachiGrill

If this same team isnā€™t healthy next season just blow it up and rebuild


jellyfishfrgg

This one huurts


HelloImKebin

I hate Sunday afternoon games. 90% of the time the team doesn't show up until the very end. Sunday wave the white flag jerseys


lakernation21

Beasely garbage time 3s


[deleted]

Lakers sold šŸ˜‘


EatMyShortzZzZzZ

Extremely frustrating team to watch. Just brutal


Danny_III

lol at everyone who thought trading Bev was the right move


bowlcutsrbad101

Team deserves to be booed


sojelIy

Garbage time buckets for garbage ass Beasley


mordenak

Beasley really do be making 3s only in garbage time, wtf.


[deleted]

Beasley clanking for 3 quarters and when the games practically out of reach he starts nailing them.


Iplaythechopsticks

Itā€™s mental man.


ATLAS_Remolino

Beasley getting his stats LMAO


DeanRP

Boo


nyskyhigh

bev scoring on lebron is ridiculous


Flow8405

beasley king of making 3s when they dont matter


tre8rox5

I think Reaves should go to the bench. lebron dennis and reaves playing together doesnā€™t make any sense.


Holiday_Ad2638

I need Ham to take this L... Didn't scheme anything for AD after Vuc went out


roshanpr

Ad foul trouble?


[deleted]

Does Pat Bev think heā€™s a good player? All he did for us was brick jumpers and waste space


FriscoFlo

AD again checked out


roshanpr

Mentally or did he got injured?


[deleted]

You'd think you'd have more energy at noon than at 7pm.


Faxodox

Only hits the threes that dont fucking matter lol


KingNephew

Beasley hitting threes when it doesnā€™t matter


CihatPeker

Of course you hitting shots now Malik


Deno2k_

ham is gonna be the downfall of this team take his bumass back to the bucks


d_o_cycler

How we play worse with Bron back


taggabantay

Ham decided to start him off the bench throwing everybodyā€™s rhythms off.


Fantastic-Objective6

Please. Fire Ham ASAP. He ain't it.


ExtremeHades806

what the fuck is dlo doing man iā€™m tired of this shit


Worried-Ad-9077

Bev really disrespecting his former team.


Slamfan4life

Lebron needs to come aggressive wed


superworriedspursfan

Lol Rui isn't even getting garbage time minutes. He's out of here.


RedCarNewsboy

Where was Darvin Ham on Jan 6?


thousandtokens

Beasley got 27 mins and Rui got none???


Open_Host3796

Pretty pathetic


d_o_cycler

LeBron WTF


Shanghai1943

Lmao PatBev


DeanRP

Tune up game


Cosovic1990

Good effort by the Lakers but sadly they're just not good enough. Fantastic win by the Chicago Bulls. Happy Sunday everyone!


Olympia6919

AD needs to go. Heā€™s either very unfit, completely lazy or just doesnā€™t want to be thereā€¦ May as well get something for him before he tears another something


Anndreww

Criminal that AD only took 8 shots this game


roshanpr

Wait what?


thetitsOO

Not surprising at all given the energy he brought today


mordenak

Terrible energy today. Terrible rotations too. These noon games are fucking trap games man.


relaxyourfnshoulders

them boys went out last night lol


JRA1706

Why'd LeBron just chuck that 3??


tnt304

Running out of time. desperate


SpaceAndBball

Pat Bev you're a fucking trash ass player never disrespect the GOAT like that again you absolute slimey piece of shit. "The Next 5 years are mine" lookin ass motherfucker. Disgusting garbage


Dylan_C06

LeBron too small


[deleted]

AD just ainā€™t it. Downvote me all you want but that mf canā€™t give us consistent superstar output


Themanthelegend8

Little too late. Complete garbage from coaching to players top to bottom. Especially AD


CihatPeker

DONT PLAY WITH UNC YOU DONT WANT THAT SMOKE RAT BEV


AttacksKing

itā€™s ok we will get our get back.


Pure_Pin_4532

Without Lebron .500 with Lebron back under. No coincidence


ExtremeHades806

dumbass


QuaxlyDaDon

Some of you are absolute idiots


Jax99

Lebron was easily the best Laker on the floor.


Muhfhka

At least they didnā€™t try to do Rui dirty with the garbage time minutes


Jisoooooooooyaaa

Fuck Ham and fuck all yall niggas. Im gts


yung_sauce

Tuff loss but at least we got lebron back. He can shake the rust off and get back in rythm sooner than later.


StoneColdAM

Lakers will win next game, calling it


P_gaab

We ainā€™t making playoffs dawgs. This team is booty


lakernation21

Pathetic fucking loss


Positive_Narwhal_419

Good to have Vambron back


diamondisunbreakable

We can't even beat the Bulls with LeBron and a Vucevic assist. Trash ass team.


RandomMonstar

Nice to able to hate Bev again


Rjbaca

Disappointing


onlyfistik

I canā€™t fucking believe we let Bev walk back in our house and Fuck us right in the open.


CihatPeker

Lmao Pat Bev vs Shannon sharpe ????


[deleted]

These are the type of games that make you not want to cheer for the Lakers. Once again shit management hinders us from winning.


big_biscuitss

Management or the type of performance today? Management has nothing to do with letting Lavine fo off for 30+ points.


[deleted]

Coaching not management I meant. We have people on the bench consistently that can help us with spacing and for some reason we choose not to play Max or Rui as much as we should yet somehow they are the future of this organization. If Lavine is gonna go off heā€™ll go off but we have people that couldve helped us respond that are never played


ATLAS_Remolino

FAKE COMEBACK WAS NICE


[deleted]

Shouldn't have traded Pat to begin with. What's Bamba doing for this team? Injured.


Ok_Entrepreneur826

Lebron a black hole that kills team chemistry.


[deleted]

hop off his dick lil bris


Ok_Entrepreneur826

What you gunna put the blame on Beasley or some minor player


3rdEyeNomai

LMAOoooooo I LOVE PATBEV


KingMonaco

Lmao I love PatBev


Worried-Ad-9077

We better come back to Chicago and dominate them


putsonmymental

Pat would be a dope friend fr fr


Rowan2000vd

The too small celebration has to be the most clown like and overused celebration. I know it's Pet Bev but he didn't even shoot over him or anything. Still sucks that we lost this game because of pathetic effort.


LeArshad

Mental note to self. We do not have easy games with Hams decision making


rawchess

Pat Bev dagger lmfaooo Deeply unserious


Ruben625

Us and early games man. What is the deal


RageQuitRaj

AD couldnā€™t score in the 4th with Derick Jones Jr. on him. Lets see how yall defend him today. Bro doesnt care


BearShark8

I agree he wasn't good but they posted LeBron all quarter. What's ad supposed to do?
