well, he can't really take Ingles off the dribble, which is sad if you think about it.. so, he had no choice but to chuck an impossible shot... Russell needs to develop some quickness, ASAP. that or pass it to the people who were actually making plays, Randle and Lou. _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

JC had just hit 2 difficult shots and he brings in a guy that was 1/9 smh |
He made a bailout jumper his previous shot.
Lakers waited and looked too much for Lou in the final two possessions. I mean it's an improvement from before where they just looked to go straight ISO ball. Off ball movement needs to be worked on better in these late game situations. |

One of the worst D Lo games in a long time. He was poor pretty much all game but his decision making in those last two crunch time possessions was just awful. Take that (bleep) inside bro!

Actually thought he had a really nice first half even without his jumper falling. |

There was no one to give it to with 4.5 secs left or so. Big cluster up top. The mistake was as you said, take him off the dribble. Why a pull up 3?
I wonder if Luke is teling DLo not to play inside the arc. All DLo does is jack 3s after spending a whole season and offseason dominating opponents off the elbow and post. |

I was more surprised to see Ingles lock up Lou down the stretch. |

He's not a bust but he needs to stop worrying about trying so hard to be the face of the lakers. Something tells me the pressure is starting to get to him. He is playing with low confidence and still trying to make hero plays. He just needs to let the game come to him organically instead of forcing himself to be the next kobe. |

There is no way in hell Hayward or any other stud would want to come here. Yes, It's Dlo, who already has a reputation as a snitch, and now he's acting like hollywood kobe when he hasn't done squat to earn that respect or the ability to hit the big shots. In terms of attitude and entitlement:

it was Randle and Lou who should have taken the shot. both carried the Lakers the last 3 minutes of the game.
It was obvious Russell's shot were short ALL night, and he was taking mid range jumpers and they were short, and then he takes a shot from the parking lot... result was not a surprise. _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

He got the offense flowing pretty well and played good defense.
Your boy Okafor was scoring baskets for the opposing team and Sixer fans have 'trash can' memes painted on him. Go cry some more.

As long as the team competes, I'm perfectly fine if we end up .. missing the playoffs, this team needs the experience of these situations.
This team is fun as heck to watch, winning 35 games will be a good step. |

By give it up I mean run something for someone. Jazz just built a wall to make him shoot or go right (and had help waiting behind), should have seen it earlier and not just dribbled right to where they wanted him _________________ “We must always take sides.
