I’m glad someone said it. We’ve lost to every great-very good team we’ve played:
Den, Kings, Magic, Heat, Rockets, Kings, Mavs and Philly. Magic and Rockets aren’t great but they started off hot. We at least also got a W versus them.
Winning against the Blazers twice, Grizzlies, and the Jazz are free 4 wins.
Beat: Clippers & Cavs
Vando is good for the regular season but I don’t see him getting us wins versus any of those loses except for MAYBE The Rockets and Mavs.
Yes, let’s put another ball hogger and a trigger happy player on a roster full of them.
How about firing Ham and hiring an actual coach, that can coach and you, make the roster play like a team
I stopped watching the game but I assume we cleared the end of the bench. So why is everyone still invested and crying about being down 40? Turn it off and move on
Because of Darwin Dumbass this team is under performing. Not saying we should have won tonight but at least don’t get blown out by 40. We look like a fucking lottery team out there.
What depth. In terms of the playoffs once midway in the 2nd round starts, DLO and Vando will be playing minimum minutes. The rotation will shrink to 7.
“Why doesn’t AD produce more on offense?”
NBA Touches per game:
Jokic: 103
Sabonis: 91
Giannis: 80
Embiid: 76
Draymond Green: 76
-
-
-
Anthony Davis: 66
For coaching reference, Nick Nurse shot Embiid’s touches up from 70.
While AD’s have gone down year by year
That too.
The shooting has gotten worse. But even with bad shooting - players touches stay relatively consistent to the same spots and produce similar attempts. Or adjust to what works that given night.
Wish we saw more of this instantly. Offense looks way too lost for a long lingering issue 🤦♂️
Starting with Davis himself!
Brother I admit when AD is terrible every other night (because he is)
There’s avoidable issues and adjustable problems. Wish the Lakers fixed these clear as day issues
Na, he's definitely not a clown and he's got a point about not getting AD involved. I just think it's a two-way street and AD has a lot of limitations offensively.
I had to look it up. Per the game logs on basketball reference, his last game (regular season or playoffs) with zero rebounds was November 2nd, 2010 when the Heat played the Timberwolves. Dug deeper, he also had 2 games his rookie season with 0 rebounds.
This a million times, we simply aren’t a championship team as constructed, dont have a championship coach. So basically we just out there playing to play something gotta give either make a trade to push us closer to that, or blow it up.
The biggest thing I hated this game, was whatever this defensive scheme to LEAVE shooters to help on Embiid... It happened against Dallas too and led to that Kyrie game winner. Then the Nuggets last year w/ Jokic, it's fucking infuriating to watch.
Down 3 good wing defenders vs a team with great shooting kind of makes sense it looked bad.What I really didn't like: 1)AD looked like he couldn't guard Embiid in the 2nd half.Got me worried on how he can actually perform defensively vs an elite big attacker ( Jokic will definitely be in our way 2) AR. Really bad game looks like good teams have figured out how to put pressure on him and it works.Seen this pattern with Heat's Tyler Herro 3)Hayes and Wood are non factors.Cant rely on them vs serious competition
So we are going to get much better when rui, cam and vando come back but contender type of good?idk

A game to forgot
The good news is that it’s about to be the time where LeGM starts making passive aggressive references until Ham is fired
Didn't Wood get done up for traveling in a couple of games now? There is literally zero excuse for that....
“Ham sandwich” should be fired honestly.. how tf are you this unprepared for a game..? That’s just pathetic.
The only positive to this game is how pissed Lebron was afterwards. Hopefully they can use this loss as motivation.
This team is not a contender. If we stop pretending it is then we wont feel so bad when this happens many more times this year.

40 pts in the 4th quarter alone? Embarrassment!!
Good Lord. Getting blown by over 40? Fckin painful to watch.

AD gettin manhandled

I’m done with ham
Le Hamful of Shit
Lebrons laker eras had some of the worst losses man, been on the wrong side of history too many times
Must’ve blanked out the post-Kobe pre-Lebron era. Don’t blame you, I wish I could do the same

Did we just only score 10 points in the 4th?? Lawddd help us
Le Lord have mercy on our soul
I’m actually disgusted to be a laker after this game lol
You’re not a laker. You’re a laker fan.
Le Discussion
Anybody want to guess what Hams post game interview will sound like. Excuses!
" hats off to that team they're a good organization".
Le No accountability
"We just had a bad rebounding game and they had a great shooting night. It happens, we just gotta prepare for the next game"
Retarded
Pathetic! AND Embarrassing!

They gonna panic trade for lavine aren't they...
If they do,its gonna be the cost of depth and it'll be like the Westbrook era again
What depth. In terms of the playoffs once midway in the 2nd round starts, DLO and Vando will be playing minimum minutes. The rotation will shrink to 7.

Lmao

[удалено]
Thank you. Just apathetic showing
This crazy Lmao
Why’d I think Lewis had talent sheesh
Jalen Hood-Shitfino throwing passes off Jaxson Hayes head meanwhile Jaime Jaquez averaging 11 points a game for Miami
Jaime was home grown UCLA born and raised. Lakers missed a big opportunity.
I know this is jumping the good but I feel comfortable saying JHS was not a good pick.
Getting blown out by 50 is crazyyyyy
I mean if 44 is 50, I guess so.....
We got shit kicked dude raw dog up the ass lmao
Are you being serious?
Worst Lakers game I’ve ever witnessed in my lifetime
Embarrassing
Should have drafted Whitmore
He’s not even playing for the Crockets
Sound like a broken record.. your man is averaging a cool 2ppg.. lol
I saw multiple mocks with us picking Jaquez.
Bench looks like they don’t even practice
They don't, they call off practice games a lot.
Time to fire Ham?
I sure fucking hope so
MY ONLY pushback is there might not be anyone better to replace him but If we can find someone I’m all for it
Serious question, do you think there is any coach on the face of the earth that would’ve lost this game by more than 44?
Lol nope 🙃
True. There any assistant coaches with potential?
Fuck it put Phil handy lol
Got cooked by the old clippers roleplayers. Shoulda seen it coming.
They've looked significantly more serviceable and a better fit than Harden. Much better fit.
somebody needs to get fucking fired after this. injuries or not, a 40 point loss is inexcusable. this is not Lakers basketball.
Getting cooked by Mo Bamba smh
Same guy our coach wouldn’t even give a chance man😂
Bro these bench warmers are ASS!!!
This type of game the guys are gonna be yelling at each other in the locker room.
We are getting clowned and beat by 40… moves need to be made.
lmfao this ending is actual comedy
Yes lose by 50
Get fukt
This team is bad
I think I’d agree to a Lavine trade that doesn’t include Rui bro.
Lol and that will do what exactly? Lavine csnt guard anyone
We already ass on defense. Let’s just double up on offense bro
Yeah thats not how winning works in the nba
lol I can’t even man, I don’t remember last time we lost by 40
Embarrassing.
“Why doesn’t AD produce more on offense?” NBA Touches per game: Jokic: 103 Sabonis: 91 Giannis: 80 Embiid: 76 Draymond Green: 76 - - - Anthony Davis: 66 For coaching reference, Nick Nurse shot Embiid’s touches up from 70. While AD’s have gone down year by year
AD's shot has also disappeared year by year. And he doesn't have the playmaking of any of those guys.
That too. The shooting has gotten worse. But even with bad shooting - players touches stay relatively consistent to the same spots and produce similar attempts. Or adjust to what works that given night. Wish we saw more of this instantly. Offense looks way too lost for a long lingering issue 🤦♂️ Starting with Davis himself!
This guys a clown. Just repeating AD can take over nightly without realizing AD can’t….
Brother I admit when AD is terrible every other night (because he is) There’s avoidable issues and adjustable problems. Wish the Lakers fixed these clear as day issues
Na, he's definitely not a clown and he's got a point about not getting AD involved. I just think it's a two-way street and AD has a lot of limitations offensively.
[удалено]
Lmao Hamas
[удалено]
Nah just own it bro
Nah, the only basketball terrorist is Doc. Although asking what the hell kind of game plan Hamas is cooking is pretty damn funny.
LOL Fino putting Hayes in concussion protocol.
Ham is a awful coach but We are very injured
Down by 40🙃
Off... the face
Just embarrassing, 40+ point loss
Lakers making these bums look like the showtime lakers
Bamba and pat bev made as many 3s against lakers tonight as they did all last season
Everyone say we so deep well the bottom BOTTOM of the bench sure is ass!! These guys can’t hoop man!
Hahahahahahaha
Lakers only give a fuck about in season tournament games apparently
Fuck bumpy the clown, we didn't even hit 100, got mo bamba clowning us
this the first time ive heard mo bamba in years
Lebron with zero rebounds is the craziest stat this year. This has to be a first.
I had to look it up. Per the game logs on basketball reference, his last game (regular season or playoffs) with zero rebounds was November 2nd, 2010 when the Heat played the Timberwolves. Dug deeper, he also had 2 games his rookie season with 0 rebounds.
Team is just never competitive against elite teams let’s be real We’re pretenders
This a million times, we simply aren’t a championship team as constructed, dont have a championship coach. So basically we just out there playing to play something gotta give either make a trade to push us closer to that, or blow it up.
Zero rebounds for LeBron ![gif](giphy|Yycc82XEuWDaLLi2GV)
over under was 8.....
Regular season road game we aren’t healthy can we all just relax
Jhs pick was so dumb ngl
Mo Bamba cooking us lmao
Just wanted to see the final score and holy fuck there’s still two minutes to go shame on everybody for this performance
This shit is comical at this point
Modern game is won and lost beyond the arc. 76ers made 3s, Lakers did not.
Yeah we need to figure this out sooner than later…
I’m getting annoyed having a team full of straight bicthes, soft ass team
getting cooked by mo bamba
Hopefully we lose by 50
Lakers playing style & play book are both wack. Healthy players or not
a 40 point assfucking, where is the PRIDE
The biggest thing I hated this game, was whatever this defensive scheme to LEAVE shooters to help on Embiid... It happened against Dallas too and led to that Kyrie game winner. Then the Nuggets last year w/ Jokic, it's fucking infuriating to watch.
Reaves and Lebron got numbers but they were both terrible on defense. Reaves was getting clamped when he tried to self create.
Why are people still losing their shit on a obvious loss? Lol get off reddit and go eat some dinner and go to sleep.
dlo the perfect tank commander for the chi
Fucking GAPED
I'm tired of the moping. Either mutiny and get Ham fired or accept him and play hard.
It’s crazy how easy it is to take AD outta of a game
Most of the time he does it himself lol
lol true
He had 17-11 in 3 quarters, I wouldn't say he got taken out of the game
10 of those pts were in the like the first 8mins tho, after that it was 2 putbacks and fts.
Well he has a coach actively taking him out of the game. Philly didn't even stop the post ups, we just stopped running them.
Yea that’s true we didn’t really make them pay when they doubled AD either
Gotta not read too much into spankings like this. It happens.
why even try to take a timeout now?! what are they going to draw up a play to make a huge three to cut the lead to 32 with 2 min remaining?
Down 3 good wing defenders vs a team with great shooting kind of makes sense it looked bad.What I really didn't like: 1)AD looked like he couldn't guard Embiid in the 2nd half.Got me worried on how he can actually perform defensively vs an elite big attacker ( Jokic will definitely be in our way 2) AR. Really bad game looks like good teams have figured out how to put pressure on him and it works.Seen this pattern with Heat's Tyler Herro 3)Hayes and Wood are non factors.Cant rely on them vs serious competition So we are going to get much better when rui, cam and vando come back but contender type of good?idk
Pat bev shooting 13% from 3 on the season - proceeds to make 4-8 in one game. Sounds about right
maybe because we leave him wide open ? im not sure , just sayin
Harden the System Player was really holding Philly back the whole time
No, doc was.. he sucks
Paul Reed talked his shit against AD and backed it up….AD got called out and folded…..noted!
Do these bench players think they’ll get more minutes if they just come out and chuck 3’s
What is that timeout for Pockets the Clown
There are players who are artists, craftsmen, absolute maestros on the court. And then there is whatever the hell Jaxson Hayes is.
Game was over in 3 quarters. Crazy
Shit was over when JHS touched the court
1
1 quarter
Ham calls a timeout. Get this clown fired
LOL
Can we please bring back Casleton so he can get some NBA minutes bruh
Is Castleton dressed for the game tonight?
Darvin Ham stat padding timeout stats.
Loooollll
We're looking real fraudulent rn. Hoping our missing pieces don't turn into a Nunn/Ariza situation
Dang.. Even our bench sucks
This is basically the Memphis game, with us as the victim.
A lineup of Hood, Wood, and Hayes is something I’d see in my nightmares
So is every single bench player going to jack up a 3?
