DLO leaving in free agency because he doesnt to be coached under Ham <<<<<

Nah, bet money AD takes this game extra personally and goes off for a monster game.

need it

AD should be more aggressive tonight but lets see if Ham actually has a good gameplan tonight

tonight we rewrite the narrative

Reaves

AD, Taurean Prince, Max Christie, Spencer Dinwiddie and DLo lineup late in the first quarter (Kings went on a run)

Gabe Vincent is the last piece for Ham's terrorist objectives.

Usually id be hyped to get guys back healthy but i am absolutely terrified to see how Darvin will handle the rotations

Sabonis owns AD sadly

Reaves and Rui carrying us right now

Lakers still going under screens and letting shooters open

In the first half...

Rui and AR: 36 PTS, 15-21 FG

LeBron, AD, DLo: 14 PTS, 5-22 FG

Still going under screens and getting killed. Ham made no adjustments after the first half

AD looks shook

Lebron playing like s*** tonight

ffs

Lakers have now lost all 4 of their post All-Star break games against their direct West opponents: GSW, PHX, SAC x 2

Nope

Darvin Ham says he told the Lakers they can’t skip details after the game. Also said they need to have a next-play mentality and recalibrate better.

"You have to recalibrate and try to play the right way and do it as a unit, not individually try to get yourself going."

Darvin Ham says he "absolutely" expected his team to play better but "you're gonna have nights were things don't go your way... You have to find other ways to impact the game."

Darvin Ham:

"We've been doing a good job of bouncing back from devastating losses and getting that bad taste out of our mouths, and we'll do the same this time."

AD

Anthony Davis says that it's hard to beat a team like the Kings when the Lakers are turning the ball over and giving up offensive rebounds at a high rate.
