Why the (bleep) does Lebron insist on taking crap shots all the (bleep) time man?

Him and AD as a duo should be used way more than it has.

Im done man this loss (bleep) broke me. Cant get behind this crap it's infuriating.


Because Lebron is a showoff, and a narcissist immature ass. He always has been. I'm sorry, I know he does alot of great things out there, but he simply cannot be counted on to win games during the critical times.


It’s hard for players to see their own decline. Lebron with the ball at the end of games was a damn good play in his prime…but No team should be relying on an almost 40 year old to carry you to wins night in and night out. AD should be screaming in everyone’s ear about getting the ball, but that’s not his personality

Up 17 in the 4th... Ham could not find time to rest Lebron to close out the game. Lebron was spent closing out the game. The guy played the whole 4th quarter for no reason.

Russ and Schro over Walker to close out the game?... Make it make sense Ham.

Between that and he’s not even gonna see the full 75k since his ass is gonna get kicked because of taxes.

These prizes are some bull when you only get half of it.

That + LeBron brought this kind of effort against the rookie that said LeBron is going to have to "prove' he's better than him. He did nothing of the sort tonight, none of that intensity, none of the trying on defense, none of the "I'll take the youngster/rookie." to show him what's what... none of it.


And that rookie kicked his ass.

Lebron should have been traded when we had the chance.


Here here here.. I was blatantly telling you guys that the Lakers should have traded him, pretty obvious he’s lost passion for winning and he’s just trying to to Impress with stats, and we can’t trade him now because of the stupid no trade clause or whatever stupid crap they put on his contract.

If we’re gonna close out games with Westbrook on the floor, expect more losses like this.


I though Mr. Ham played Westbrook and Dennis S. waaaayy too much in the 4th. Westbrook cannot close out games. He is too prone to turnovers to close out games. And Dennis is not a good enough shooter to close out games. Mr. Ham is learning, I know, but it sure is frustrating seeing his lineups sometimes.


At least Dennis gives you defence, while Westbrook is just out there stat padding. He becomes specially dangerous(to us) when he hits a couple of shots in a row, because then he thinks he’s MVP Russ and goes 1v5 leading to a barrage of turnovers. So then you combine that with the nonexistent defense and zero IQ, and you got the perfect basketball player to NEVER cose out games with.

lol Yeah, this not what we wanted as fans. But, when it got down to a single possession, in the closing seconds, the team with the momentum will usually be favored by the basketball gods. Nothing to lose sleep over. It is what it is. But, we'll see if Ham is going to coach this team, or not. If we see this type of stuff repeated going forward...

My Prediction of us losing 12-14 straight games stands. December will be a hell hole around here. Fire everyone and trade everyone threads are incoming due to the upcoming schedule. This team does t really beat good teams and definitely not on the road. Detroit is the only winnable game in December.

First time the Lakers have lost a game where they led by as many as 17 in the 4th in 20 years. Every other team had lost such a game.

Thanks Lebron and Darvin! You took away our undefeated stat.

You don't understand what happened on the final play. AD had to tag the corner leaving a wide open player in the paint. Lebron was forced to stay in the paint to prevent a wide open layup. The play broke down because Schroeder and Reaves inexcusably doubled Haliburton.


Oh interesting...

Yep, that is what happened.
But I still feel right in blaming Lebron for leaving the 40% 3 point shooter.

This is the lakers luck.
Lebron finally found his jumper and turned an ankle and went 0/6 from the 3, stupid losses to pacers and the blazers because our superstars were too dumb or too inefficient.
Now the team has been playing well for a few weeks had a let down game with tough road games coming up… sigh

Lebron one legged 22 footer Dirk fade-away with 6’1 TJ McConnell guarding him was the biggest indicator to me the Pacers will have a chance to win this game.

Too many trash stagnant possessions when he isn’t hitting his shots.

Infuriating because Lebron is much better than this. Especially in Year 20 when he is probably the best playmaker this game has seen since Magic

Russ was also lost in that play covering Myles Turner when Austin was on him.

Russ could of easily blitz the shooter but at this point it wasn’t really an high IQ situation moreso than a lack of effort

That’s probably why Ham went with WB to finish because we had no play makers since they are just doubling AD on the catch. lebron clearly didn’t try to get the ball at the end until the last possession.

LeBron deserves plenty of blame for walking the ball upcourt and milking the shot clock in the 4th quarter, although it was a team-wide problem too.

Why the hell does this team always do that down the stretch? Even during the championship season that was a problem.

Keep looking for transition late in the game, especially when you're a fast-break team like the Lakers. Extend your lead as much as possible and make it hurt bad for the other team.

Funny, I was upset when the James scored the first 7 pts but insisted on coming down the court and take a quick 30ft “heat check “ shot. That missed badly.

The pacers went on a run to tie the game. Can’t waste possessions in the NBA. Lakers do it routinely.

Lebron lost his guy. He was daring this rookie to shoot all game. Bite him in the end

Not sure that's losing his guy. He got caught in between but still well enough to recover. Lakers had 4 guys guarding 3 guys on the perimeter. Started off with Westbrook missing his assignment before the Turner shot. He sold out when he knew he wasn't going to recover, or that rebound would have bounced right to his hand.

There was a lot that went wrong during that defensive sequence. A lot of it was scramble ball, so it's understandable...to a degree. A two ties the game. A three wins it, for the Pacers. You don't want to give up any easy baskets, but if you have to choose, you don't leave open shooters. LeBron did that, by playing middle field, with AD. Lost track of both Hield, AND deciding to leave Nembhard wide open. Hield was behind LeBron's field of vision, so that's a pass. But, Nembhard WAS in his field of vision. And, he made a bad decision.

Apparently, LeBron was just going to leave it up to fate. He obviously didn't want to play overtime...
