We have been Playing much better since he took Hayes minutes ( and rightfully so). 14 points, 2-4 from 3, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block and most importantly good defense in 24 minutes!

  1. Good defense is a stretch, but yes, he’s been solid.

  2. He still does things that do my head in but I guess that’s what it is

    He’s the threat to score the bench mob needs. We know what he is defensively. As long as the effort to defend and rebound is there, he needs 15-20 a game

  4. I don’t want to ever see Hayes on the floor again. Anyone that’s been paying attention to our rotation this season can see that.

    Lineups feature Wood-AD-Lebron are one of the highest + so I’m glad to see Ham using him again. I don’t even care if he was made to do it just glad to have Wood. 20-25 mins consistently is what I’d like to see

    Hayes is a consistent disaster and they’d be better off investing time into Castleton

    Now all he needs is consistency throughout the season

  7. Our offense is so dog shit that we desperately need the offensive production he provides.

    Hmmm good defense? I’d say “serviceable” d

    We needed a big and we needed offense when we were in our losing streak. It made zero sense Ham didn’t even consider going to Wood.

    Hopefully he continues to get mins and play well. If he does maybe we don’t need to trade for a big and use those assets on a two way player instead which would really help

    After the peak of pockets dilemma, I honestly think trades are not the priority now but better coaching. At least ham should give right people with right minutes and gameplan before we can even talk about trading any players. I am just afraid we may give away something good without maximizing everyone’s potential.

    I think they both should play. It’s times in the games where Lakers small ball won’t work. It would make them more dominant to play bigs and wood as 4.

    Like when Davis sits. Lebron has to go bigger. I am just not a fan that much when Lebron has to be power forward as much as I like him on the wing. Sometimes it’s ok but it weakens the team and takes so much out of him.

    You can’t be a championship team that way. I don’t get why they ain’t pick up a big. Because Ham won’t play them I guess.

    Even wenyen was better than Hayes. Good god can we resign him and waive Hayes

    We won games early in the season using the ultra big lineup (AD, bron, wood) and it should be used more. Still need a true two way player outside of bron when trying and AD

    Glad to see him have a couple good games in a row when he’s given the chance to play. He really helps with rebounding, and hopefully he continues to be another option that can score, given how bad our offense is.

    But once Rui returns Ham will have him back sitting on pinewood for 48mins DNP
