  1. fck this sht

    ​

    and fck the celtics, too

  2. JTA earned more minutes. TBJ earned more minutes. Both played hard and hustled. Ham needs to stop closing with Bev and Schroeder they can’t defend nor shoot & he coupled them with Russ who’s been awful. Bryant on the bench instead of closing is wild too

  3. Viva_La_Animemes

    29 Heat Points off the Turnovers compared to our 2 points 😭

  4. Boltzfan1995

    This team is hilarious. They always claw back in the game and then throw it away because they are too gassed, especially LBJ

  5. hairyasscheeks_

    Darvin scam does it to himself at this point

  6. Just-Independent5365

    Terrible game, horrible shooting.

  7. NorthRefrigerator713

    It’s a guard’s league!

    Proceeds to turn the ball over 25 times

  8. Hopefully Ham realizes that TBJ and JTA need more minutes

  9. ehehehuahe

    These lineups look like they’re assembled by a 5th grader

  10. Some-Smell-9765

    I wish the memes of lebron being the coach were true

  11. winter-r0se

    pat bev is one of the worst players in the league & ham is obsessed with him & rob thinks he’s a 3&d wing. fucking clowns

  12. herpes_for_free

    Austin Reaves and Lonnie sucked hard this game damn. Hope they’ll get it on next game.

  13. mypeaksandmyfreaks

    lonnie and reaves with their tony snell tribute stats

  14. This roster is already terrible. But when Lonnie & Reaves both drop a goose egg, and you commit 25 turnovers, it’s going to be impossible to get a win. I also don’t understand closing with Bev & Schroeder when Troy brown was playing really well. And even though Reaves was off, he needs more than 20mpg. Game was winnable too.

  15. CihatPeker

    Darvin Ham is our biggest opponent. Every single game. I’m sick of this

  16. seikoholic9497

    It’s beyond me how we had a good squad and the FO decided to fucking destroy that

  17. Glockx8732

    We have the worse backcourt in nba history pat bev or Dennis schroder can never make a shot when it matters

  18. VivaLaRory

    Taking out the one player who felt like was pushing the comeback (in regards to scoring points) is certainly one strategy. At least when Vogel was doing weird line-ups it was ‘testing for the post-season’. Ain’t no post-season with these injuries.

  19. Accomplished_Duty_84

    Darvin Ham takes a hot Troy brown out and puts in Patrick Beverly, only for him to airball a crucial three. LMFAOOOOOOOO.

  20. OkBookkeeper3373

    Get Ham outta here.

    Lebron hot, sends him to the bench.

    TBJ hot, sends him to the bench.

    Gives Reaves and Lonnie no leash at all when they’ve been the most consistent role players we have.(Not just talking about this game)

    But will play Bev no matter what. Dude is in over his head right now

  21. conwaythemachine

    Darvin Ham is the worst coach in the league

    Literally puts lineups and subs out on the floor that make you believe he is trying to lose games

    It’s at a point where it feels deliberate. You sub Troy Brown Jr who has a hot hand out for Pat Bev. I hate this coach.

    “Facts over feelings” meanwhile you have a love affair with Pat Bev, Russ, and playing 4 guards. You lied to us Darvin Scam

    I truly believe if the Lakers had a better coach we’d at least be slightly over 500 or at 500

  22. AShinyTorchic

    I’d really love to know Hams thought process when he sends out the lineups he does.

    Literally the only consistent coaching decision he makes is putting out 3/4 guard lineups

  23. Character_Safety_519

    If the point of basketball is to make as many pretend comebacks as possible, then we’re *really* good at basketball

  24. CihatPeker

    Freeecurry definitely killed himself after this

  25. Notorious--X

    24 or 25 turnovers, can’t even be mad about the loss.

    What’s the consensus on playing an exhausted Lebron with 3-4 mins left? He’s carried the whole game but do we sit him at that point? Lethargic Lebron is more prone to mistakes (anyone would be) but also his impact is huge and I wonder if tired Lebron > benched Lebron in that scenario? Similar to what happened in OT during that Philly game when he’s just playing way over the minutes anyone his age should be playing. However, he’s also objectively our best get on the court and it feels weird to consider having someone with his IQ and skill level sit at the close of the game regardless of how tired he is?

    More just curious as to what people think because I go back and forth with myself on this one all the time.

    Nevertheless, shitty loss, hopefully the next one goes better.

  26. It’s comical how much better we look *instantly*, the *second* we play a lineup with any type of size. Get a Schroeder/Bev/Westbrook level players at the 3-5 positions and we’d *easily* be a .500 level team at the least.

  27. JTA +8
    Troy Brown Jr. +3
    Wenyen Gabriel +5

    13, 21, and 14 minutes played

    Bev -13
    Dennis -12

    28 and 35 minutes played.

    This is the difference almost EVERY GAME. Ham has to be sabotaging at the FOs behest right???

  28. This-May-Be-It

    No more back-to-backs for LeBron. Didn’t even want him to play this one. This team isn’t worth it.

    Stay healthy and get out of here this summer.

  29. Lakeshow_shitshow

    Darvin Sham strikes again, killing the comeback with his shitty rotations.

  30. n3moh0es

    darvin ham is the worst coach i ever seen my god
