ARe yawl serious? He done a Luke Walton puting a Hockey sub of 4 bench players withoutleaving a starter when the lead was 18pt.
And didnt adjust that load of junk till the lead was 9.
Next he CONTINUES leaving bease in when he sees that he just doesnt have it right now.
Just because its a win doesnt realease him from those dumb moves.

As much as Austin gets the Kobe comparisons I gotta say today AD looked very similar to the Mamba.
All those middy fadeaways and that one handed lob he caught from Rui.
Straight up just like Kobe LOL |

He looked like Kobe in the bubble when he beat Denver 😂 .. he has talked about how Kobe talked to him and was good to him on team USA early in his career. |

Just an observation -- if a double digit win can't garner any credit -- I doubt anything will for some of you - lol |

Beast and rested AD and Bron going into the playoffs. We saw what happened last time this happened. I dig it. I feel good about our chances of winning #18 this year.

Nice win even tho the bench let us down today... I expect them to be better.
TBJ and Beasley will have to adjust faster coming off the bench.
But Schro/Beasley/TBJ/Rui is a solid 6 to 9 line-up off the bench. |

I wouldn’t say the whole bench
Denis with Beasley -20
Gabriel with Beasley -9
Troy with Beasley -14
Rui with Beasley -12
Denis in his minutes without Beasley +6
Gabriel in minutes without Beasley +5
Troy without Beasley +9
Rui without Beasley +4
They just didn’t click at all with Beasley the bench did fine when he sat out there and they played with the starters. Darvin could just cut Lonnie and Beasley all the way out the rotation and have a fully clicking team and functional rotation for the playoffs |

Nope nope stop it.. He put the starters back in and took out that mess he had out there thats what pushed the lead.
Let me put it this way..if he wouldnt have put that mess out there..the lead would have gotten big enough to where you could rest AD/LBJ//whoever for the 4th.
Also will you have this same energy when he starts doing this mess in the playin or playoffs? Ill wait.... |

Yeah, that was a bad lineup. Beas was relied on to dribble more than he should be. Schroder isn't the greatest guard at distributing or getting guys involved. Especially against that Bulls team, you have to be very sharp with your passes and dribbling.
I thought everyone else played well. Even Schroder started picking it up when he got to play with a true point guard in DLo
I liked giving AD extended run with the bench to close the third because I think having Wenyen run with the starters to start the 4th is actually nice. Wenyen has improved a lot and his energy and effort pairs well with the starters. |

The thing is this would be a sit everyone in the third and ice em up game had he not put out that lineup to start the second that got blitzed and called no timeouts. They went from up double digits to down because of his rotations in the second. That was direct repeat of the game before when they sat AD and Bron with an even game and we’re down double digits with his rotations.
Then Ham in the third went with Beasley and didn’t pull him and they lost their lead and momentum to he pulled him and benched him. Had he made oration adjustments or used timeouts the right way, AD and Bron need not see the floor if he coaches well enough to break the other team in those second and third quarters |

My thing is if he’s set on giving Beasley minutes then just pull Reaves or Russell early and let Beasley run with the starters as the fourth option.
Then let the other one of Reaves or Russell come 8nto the second with Denis, Rui, and Troy and you’re good |

Like I said I expect them to better including Beasley. I think tonight was alearning curve for them since this was the first time we had full line-up for awhile now. TBJ going to the bench also messed with the flow.
I expect them to get better in the next few games as they start to adjust and get familiar with one another. |

Yeah I felt like Reaves sat too long in the first half. Reaves had 28 minutes this game, and I feel like he could/should get more PT. Especially since he started out this game so well |

missing passes? ok
not knowing where your teamate is going to be on the court? ok
BUT rotations, proper timeouts, adjustments,seeing whats right in front of you? thats a coach problem. |

Hope Bamba is back too because I don’t want Ham experimenting in a playoff game with him |

Have a look at this -- you see how the curve shows we f'd away the lead -- but got it back and maintained it - and cruised to an easy win? -- but ya know -- if we would have done yada yada 40 games ago -- yada yada
