Should have at least put him in AR’s place during the fake comeback. AR kept getting lost in the zone and was AWFUL with his TO’s.

Yeh I don’t get it, he barely plays. And when he does they park him in the corner. I love Austin but my god, run some offense through Rui.
DeleteNephew
Rui was getting absolutely obliterated on screen action, this was not the game for him.
Vegasguy3124
He shouldn’t be coming off the bench with Wood. They play so awkward together, and Hachi doesn’t seem to be keen sharing the second unit with him. There were some questionable decisions.
Perzect
This coach is gonna be the death of me
MrAppleSpoink
Fuck Darvin Ham. I genuinely fucking hate this guy. I’d literally rather have Luke Walton.
SnooMacarons1732
Should’ve never got rid of frank Vogel he would’ve killed it with this time
LebronsPinkyToe
Rui cant chase a turtle, AD didnt show up tonight and we turned the ball over 20 times. theres not a lot you can do to overcome that

Go ship your fickle sunny-day fan ass back to grade school.

What’s wrong with you Ham?
TorontoRaptors34
This is why I said he is a starter not a bench player.
The perfect line up would be
DLO Cam Rui Bron AD
Bench
Gabe Reaves Prince Vando Wood
Elite_Alice
Yea maybe we should get lavine if bro not gonna play
McJumbos
True professional. Never complains about PT and always is prepared for the minutes he gets
CabbageStockExchange
Alright so I somewhat see the logic in Lavine if you use the argument he can get buckets. No one on this fucking team can score when LeBron sits. We don’t even let the offense flow with Rui.
It’s a shame he also got blasted on defense. That’s an issue. We seem to struggle with faster teams

Austin Reaves got 33 minutes today. Rui got 17. You have to be out of your fucking mind if you think Reaves deserves more playing time than Rui. Rui has an impact on both ends of the floor. Especially on offense. Reaves so far has been extremely disappointing. He can’t defense, he is a terrible ball handler and often creates bad turnovers, and his physical abilities are as limited as they get. If he was a knockdown three pt shooter like Huerter you can give him a pass but he is not. Yet somehow he is seeing a lot of playing time with this team. It’s really disappointing what is happening with Rui when he is nothing but a positive.
Hifosty
We just saw this dude take the offense into his own hands the other night let him play
naytttt
Getting trading in a package for Zlavine
noodlenoggins
He worked out with LeBron over the summer too, at least let them get some real run and test out that chemistry

I am starting to think Darvin Ham hates japanese, because how do you not realise the potential for Rui? tf?
CooperHouseDeals
He’s got a coach.! Who knew
Uberballer
I still cannot get over the fact that they were gassing him up all fucking summer long (“the Understudy”) after paying him $17M a year and yet they staple his ass on the bench for guys who don’t make half his salary combined…
*And that’s before having to fit Vando back into the rotation.*
This is coaching malpractice. I want Darvin to succeed but there’s no question that right now this coaching staff is straight dogshit. Does he even have one competent assistant aside from Phil Handy?
Seriously they’re trying to play too many pieces, I get wanting depth but this team needs to make a move to tighten up the rotation from 10 guys down to 7-8 full time players who don’t bump into each other.
Good_Illustrator_433
They could be not playing him so he does not get included in any trade with Chicago
annoyedboy671
When we win a game and god forbid we get on a mini winning streak, the boner this sub gets for Ham (worst coach in NBA history) is disgusting.
jessandjaysaccount
That’s the problem with depth. Where exactly do you want to play him? Reddish is playing amazing.
blazingfenix
Didn’t ham say he wants rui to play aggressive? LOL how is Rui supposed to do that with no minutes. Hamnesia at his finest
kronicwaffle
Think the answer between those options is obvious. SHIP THE FUCKING COACH

Rui got the best job in the world. Playing 10 minutes each game with 17M/Y

Ham just waiting for the opponent to go on a 20-0 run before doing anything anyway.
WizSkinsNatsCaps
We had the same issue in DC. His time away for personal reasons resulted in a diminished role for us. It’s extremely frustrating to see because Rui has such a pure shot. I think coaches problem with Rui lies on the defensive side. He apparently doesn’t play good team defense. Bullshit if you ask me. How many guys in the league get a green light with huge minutes yet play zero defense. Funny how some players are held to a standard and others aren’t. WTF is with that. And Rui at least gives effort on the defensive end, plays good individual defense. Let him play his game!! Give him minutes and a green light god damnit.
