You guys already know how much I have stuck up for Westbrook this season but this wasn’t a good performance from him the stats look nice but I could circle in 14-15 games from this season that had me excited over his game tonight.

Love Rondo but honestly he’s only at his sharpest during the Playoffs.

Monk is big time for us but I’ll admit IT step into his role and is ballin.

We gotta get healthy and we got figure this thing out. We still have enough to win ball games with this roster for sure

We can cut baze, rondo/DAJ and make room for useful players and IT looked ok so far, but since NUNN didn’t play a single minute yet, I don’t know what they will do

Overreactions. Like DJ Khaled says, Another One Another One.


Not a great performance from him okay I’ll give you that but there is a multitude of things that happened leading to our loss tonight that has nothing to do with Russ

Nobody said it was a good performance, but certainly far from horrible

Rondo ain’t going anywhere. That would piss off AD and Lebron.

Baze and DJ might not be safe. Or maybe package in a trade. I hate to say this but THT, Nunn are probably gonna get traded. There the only attractive players others teams would want. Maybe Baze and DJ gets packaged along with them. 3rd team maybe

Curse the day we took WB instead of Demar. Curse it. This dude is the antithesis of winning basketball. Boneheaded plays after boneheaded plays. Statline looks good. But watching the game you see how (bleep) awful he was. Yeah he hustles. I can find a guy on the street that hustles as well. He isn't a smart player. Y'all see that TO he had trying to pass Melo with Ball trailing?

Kind of turnover a rookie does when the moment is too big.

Trade him if we get the chance. Im not expecting a championship or even a deep playoff run with this team. But damnit i want to enjoy watching games. It's impossible to enjoy games with this idiot running the show.

Probably made Lebron age 10 years watching his dumbass try a spinning layup against Vuc in crunch time.

WHY DIDNT WE GET DEROZAN!!!!!!!!



All of this BS 🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢🤣😂🤣

For one we didn’t have the cap space for Demar.
Him taking the minimum was the biggest BS of all time.

Next Russ had 20, 9, 8 and yes he had turnovers but so did a lot of other lakers.

Weak excuses.

We lost as a team. Moving on.


Great statline watched the game he made a bunch of boneheaded plays.

Got a starting PG who cant even make ft's doesn't care if he wins a title or not and im supposed to want this guy

Nobody wanted this guy but us.

PHX will be tough but If we play inspired ball we have a chance. The Suns are not unbeatable. GO LA!

Multitude of reasons as to why Russ contributed to the loss as well. For him being a PG for so long im shocked as to why he still cant make a proper pass. Mindblown.

Love your optimism, but I just can’t see us beating PHX this short handed. Maybe if lebron goes 50-70% from the 3

Hey our small ball lineup when it clicking basically took Vucevic out of the game. He was non existent that second half.

We neutralize Ayton and Javale I believe as well. We got a chance.

Devin Booker is back hopefully we kick his ass same for Bridges ,Cam, and Jae.

CP3 always a problem hopefully he doesn’t go off too much like Demar

1.5 minutes left, down 1
-Westbrook makes jump shot, up 1
-Lebron blocks Derozan, Caruso offensive rebound, Lonzo misses 3pt, Green offensive rebound, Derozan makes jump shot, down 1
-Westbrook misses layup, down 1
-Derozan misses jump shot, Lonzo offensive rebound, Rondo fouls when he doesn't need to, game over

Literally just rebound the ball

Ayton is going to feast with Jordan and Lebron playing the 5. Now they have Booker back and I have a feeling he's going to have a big game too. I would put Ariza on him entire game and let what happens happen. But I'd be surprised if we don't lose by 15-20 point or more.

I don’t think Ariza can play that long

37yr old Lebron had to carry the scoring and playmaking load... Then defend Derozan at the end. Actually got a stop and the team can not secure the rebound.

Yeah, simple as that. Sometimes the ball just doesn’t bounce your way. Especially that block

Our small ball lineup looked pretty damn good at stretches just couldn’t rebound the damn ball.

It’s funny how there’s a few posters here who said we are better without AD

Crazy that our small ball lineup struggles with rebounds when you Lebron and Russell on the floor

Rondo and Westbrook turnovers and missed FT from the team lost this game.

and those early dumb missed shots by Westbrook might as well be turnovers also so he actually had more then 6

Old Man Trevor looked good with the 15 minutes he was on the floor.

Having him definitely boosts up our defense. Sucks we lost AD for a couple weeks. I can see these two working well together on the defensive end

You meant couple of months? AD is a slow healer
