No points, that’s fine, at least their defending right Right RIGHT !!!!!!!!

It’s also not that surprising since our starting unit was scoring 100 a game for a while ~ we’ll need more from Rui and Austin (and hopefully D’Lo can keep it up) but they’re also fatigued with trying to defend Jokic and Murray.
Prince is leading the bench with 21 mins a game in the 1st couple games. Other than that, we’ve played Hayes for like two 3-min stretches, Gabe hasn’t made any 3s, and Dinwiddie has missed some bunnies inside.

TP has been solid so far and honestly deserves all of Dinwiddies minutes. At least he not afraid to shoot the damn ball and has been aggressive. I can live with missed shots but can’t be afraid to take them

We’ve come full circle where the sub wants Prince to play over Rui
lol

Vincent I can excuse for coming off injury and playing solid defense, although his value was from his great playoff play with Miami.
Dinwiddie not scoring is absolute trash. Kuzma was right about him. If you go 2 playoff games with no points, it’s not just a bad fit, you stink. 2 of your former Brooklyn teammates when they made the playoffs are here, and not even that chemistry is there.
Jaxon Hayes is a dummy and would get mauled by Jokic or Gordon.
Max Christie is too scared and his confidence was killed by Ham.

He is going to take Rui’s minutes.

Taurean the Playoff Prince is real. Lol

Im all for riding the hot hand(pause)
Hwight
Game 2, Lakers starters scored 93 points, bench aka Prince only 6.
Too difficult to win this way.

Role players play better at home? Right? RIGHT?!?!?
Please God can we just get like 20 points from the bench
channydin
What bench?

I’m much more concerned about rebounds from the bench than points. Wtf did we think would happen when the world demanded all the scorers start?
big_biscuitss
Check how many shots the guys off the bench take. I bet it’s not very many at all. So you want the bench guys taking the shots rather than starters that are on the floor with them?
randomhero_92
This is why I’m hoping Christian Wood will come back for tomorrows game. Prince is literally the only bench player that’s even taking shots in the game. We won’t have to worry about Christian Wood not shooting when he gets in the game.
Christian Wood doesn’t care if he has all 5 players on him, he he catches the ball anywhere, especially within 15 feet, he’s not passing it. Normally this is a bad team and it’s why he has been traded multiple times in his career, but the lakers honestly need that type of player right now.

I think LeDad needs to take everyone out to Chuck-E-Cheese to get the team spirit back up before game 3 🙏
SgtSiggy
The way he talks, Rui puts too much pressure on himself.
Reaves need to loosen up a little too
davidsa6
Yeah bro, that’s not going to cut it. Whatever we do this offseason, I’m hoping that we at least rebuild our bench (also fire Ham).

Start Hayes on Jokic. Move Rui too the bench

Ham hasn’t really groomed a bench. That’s another reason I knew the playoffs would be a struggle.

This is a CRAZY stat

Taurean Prince has been way overhated by this fan base.

ya im not playing prince beyond 15 mins

We run plays for Taurean Prince. He’s allowed to take step-back jumpers. (I question Ham’s judgement in these, but fact is he has plays designed and is allowed to stay on the court after taking step-back jumpers).
We don’t run plays for Spencer and Gabe. They will also defer to other players higher in the pecking order (Bron, AD, and Austin).
Hayes gets minimal playing time and that’s the end of our rotation.

How is that even possible!!?? Wow

Taurean Prince is literally Prince Zuko

Absolutely disgusting, Lakers bench should be ashamed of themselves. Leave those scrubs in Denver

Darvin Ham: “SEE?”

Typical lakers. Few players show up and the rest of the team doesn’t do shit. Why does it feel like every playoffs were in there’s always some dude on the other team who has a career playoff game ? Lol
TinyCucumber3080
Why the fuck does Ham play Rui so much? He’s trash. Prince should get his minutes.
Tall_Succotash
He’s been good, I still cringe at his drives because it’s truly 50/50 outcome lol

Shoutout to Taurean.

I refuse to believe dinshittie is this bad, Ham is not using him right.
