    As long as Prince plays more like 20-25 tops then that’s fine. Vando needs at least 20, Wood 20, Rui 25

  2. Temporary-Move7403

    The lineup was used at first game. Back to the starting point. But this lineup’s defense is horrible. When cam can back, will bench dlo or ar 100%.

    Will not work Prince should not start. Dlo and Reaves will struggle against athletic backcourts.

  4. LoveTheHustleBud

    “Confirmed” – like Rob isn’t actively shopping at least one of those starters.

    The collective defensive effort needs to be more consistent from here on out. Ham has to figure out a way to lower the minutes for AD & Bron especially since they’re playing every other day this month. AD is averaging 39 minutes in the month of January.

    Why does this guy refuse to start Vando over Prince?? I swear it’s favoritism or he’s being stubborn because he knows everyone is asking for it

  7. That 5 man lineup had a 124 defensive rating. Luckily the offense offset it with a 127 offensive rating. This was the lineup that consistently got us down double digits early and we went back to it, if our offense starts slow we’ll be playing from behind

    I’m at Pawn Stars in Las Vegas and they’re trying to sell me *a pair of hands with a Detroit championship ring on one of ‘em.* Should I buy it?

    At least start vando and bring in prince for some quick buckets

    If Prince and Vando cycle in the rotation, then we set. Prince will be help on the Defensive end, while also helping a little offensively. Vando is very much a defensive player, so we can rotate him in throughout the game. Rui can also switch for Lebron, as Rui should bring the heat from the bench to fill The Kings shoes. 👑
    Hopefully this does stay…

    Reaves is way better off the bench and Vanderbilt fits well with the starting unit. Both players provide much needed energy (Vanderbilt defensively and Reaves on offense).

    I think this lineup has the potential to fare really well against other top teams! Of course, it will Also depend on how well they gel together. I think the Brooklyn Nets could be our toughest game

  14. Prince still being a starter is disgusting… He’s not an elite defender, shooter, or playmaker. Not even a serviceable scorer… Absolute travesty for him to start

  15. 31 minutes of prince not rebounding or boxing out… The offense looked better when they got easy buckets off transition because of Vando’s activity on defense. Id take 10 less minutes of TP for that every night.

    How about, trade back for Dennis and start Rui over Prince? Wishful thinking here

  17. velphegor666

    Ham really aint watching the game 😂😂. The lineup was shit but saw that the team won and believed ” yeah this will work”

  18. goatnxtinline

    We need consistency so we can build chemistry, that’s all

  19. beasttyme

    Trash lineup. This team needs a trade bad and throw in a new coach. He’s so in love with small ball it’s annoying.

  20. WideCoconut2230

    Complaints are guys not knowing their roles. Should not happen, coaching staff go over it with their 1 on 1 meetings.

  21. Flimsy-Possibility17

    Honestly this isn’t gonna matter. We gave up a huge amount of open 3’s to the thunder last night, and if they just hit them at a 30% clip we lose.

  22. PigsOnTheWings

    The lineup is ok so long as Prince does not get 30 minutes.

  23. Low_Sign5589

    As long as Prince starting. We won’t make it to playoff

  24. Ham is a idiot, I’ve never seen such a coach mismanage lineups, schemes, and minutes

  25. This will eventually mean that Cam and Vando will be on the floor together in bench lineups…I swear Ham gets in his own way. Vando should be starting with Reaves and Dlo and Prince should come off the bench. I do not understand Ham’s obsession with Prince.
