    Ham never bench anyone for slumpin and that’s what makes him bad. Slumps are broken on the bench

  2. PigsOnTheWings

    Can someone explain to me why reddish plays so much and why Rui is benched? From a pure financial standpoint we are paying Rui significantly more money and just wasting him away on the bench for no good reason. It’s not like Cam brings anything to the table either, he’s trash on offense has no shot and is mediocre defender. Why would ham risk pissing off a valuable asset in Rui for this bum?

  3. kiwiwikikiwiwikikiwi

    LeLeBron saving his 39 yr old load for the 2nd half 😤🔥🙏💜💛

  4. lets_talk_basketball

    Why is cam 3rd in shot attempts? Does ham even talk to players about role?

  5. haluthere

    I feel bad for Mad Max. Only thing Cam is good is on defense and its not really that big of a gap.

  6. nottherealstanlee

    Come into this thread wondering if fans are as angry as I am about the refs——> 7000 Ham sucks posts.

  7. BritzlBen

    Cam Reddish and DLo 3rd and 4th in minutes is hilarious

  8. yo_mamasmama

    I miss him.

  9. Dj3garrett

    More scoring is needed from Bron. Especially if they’re getting 16 points from Naz Reid.

  10. AirBishop

    Playing favorites based on who you personally like is crazy as an NBA coach.

  11. Any competent coach would have this team with at least 5-6 more wins. But we got Mr.Scam at the wheels telling Austin Reaves that 25 minutes is what he deserves

  12. _Zap_Rowsdower_

    Makes no sense to start Reddish. If players get demoted on shitty play then why not Reddish.

  13. here_for_the_goods

    Vando got his extension in the summer to fill the no offense all defense role. This team doesn’t need Reddish outside garbage time.

  14. XxEpicMonkee

    cam reddish is fucking dog shit and max is sitting there watching, AD playing generational, we have plenty of pieces to help us win and yet we can’t fucking piece together a damn productive lineup. this nigga darvin ham starting to upset me and i’ve been really patient. it just can’t be that hard to find a consistent rotation when he watches the same fucking games we do

  15. RemarkableLaw980

    Why isn’t max christie on the floor instead of DLO… We figure out a solid lineup and Ham just throws it out the next game to stick with his starting lineup…

  16. Love AR but he’s a liability this game. They just drive it on him and score every time. Naz shouldn’t be getting these easy layups over and over again but he finds Austin and goes.

  17. Ant, Towns, and McDaniels have 3 personal fouls 👀

  18. Low_Sign5589

    Please trade Cam and TP. These two are shit and Ham play them 30 minutes

  19. LAKESHOW03

    When Christie is thrown in as trade filler<<<<

  20. SeaworthinessThis227

    It would have been nice if we drafted a player that could have contributed right away.

  21. Move ham to an “assistant” role since you have to pay him still. Have him give motivational speeches during practices or something. Get a real coach in here fast

  22. Hams favourite shitting the bed tonight, tp and cam gonna lose us the game

  23. subzero12320931

    I have seen enough of Cam. Mediocre defense and god awful offense

  24. LetRobCook

    Wood is garbo but he manages not to be a negative presence in LeBron + wings lineups just by not clogging the paint and offering a bit of shot blocking. Hopefully Ham doesn’t go back to Hayes

  25. LAKESHOW03

    Reddish would be riding the bench on any other team. Yet he’s a lock for 30 min here…

  26. Seijuroakashi10

    Why tf is reddish on the court for so long .

  27. Tantle18

    Give me the LeBron, Rui, Vando, Wood, AD lineup just once please.

  28. Dj3garrett

    Lakers need a legit scorer. When it’s hard to find a basket they can break the defense down easy. Thats what ANT did for the last 6 minutes. That’s the biggest difference in most games. And Ham being a horrible coach l.

  29. brownpaperbag714

    We need to develop Max Christie.

    Reddish ain’t gonna blossom into a great 3&D roleplayer 5 years into the league.

  30. Zenith_24tee

    Honestly only down 4 to the best team in the West with questionable lineup choices isn’t that bad

    Need better optimized lineups next half and better play from everyone not named AD. Outside of the lineups I haven’t seen anything too egregious from anyone yet.
