Why does Luke Walton do this? Bring in ball stopper Clarkson, Randle, and brewer at the same time? Why not leave the starters in if they're gelling? Why does Jordan Clarkson, continue to pound the ball for 12 seconds, drive in and turn it over? Color me confused.

*Edit: Oh and Kuzma is ROLLING with 14 points. What do you do? take him out.

So you wanted him to play the starters the entire second half?

No, but why pull players, when they're playing great, and about to take the lead after being down double digits?

If only there was a way where one, or at max, 2 player subbed in at a time instead of a honkey lineup change.

Why oh why does the NBA not allow that??

Ridiculous complaint. Starters need to rest sometime, and the bench has been more than capable for us for many games this season. Today just wasn't their day, especially JC. Luke did bring Zo back in after the turnover fest we had in that third quarter stretch, so it wasn't like Luke just sat there.

Haha. I think it's cool to criticize.
I'm not calling for his job though, cuz I see things I'm liking.
Like defense for the most part, and guys are still getting open looks.
A lot of idiotic plays by the players hurts more imo.

What's sad is that the freaking vets are making as much idiotic plays as the kids.
