Forget the kids, JaVale is the 2nd best player on this team.
We need him in the game as much as possible even in crunch time.
No more small ball, Luke. _________________ |

I think the reason why we didn't see it this game is because Magic told him to let his obsession with it go. |

Chandler doesn’t play small ball. Neither do we and that is a disadvantage. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

C: Zubac 7'1"
PF: Chandler 7'1"
SF: McGee 7'0"
SG: Wagner 6'11"
PG: Lebron James 6'8" |

It looked like we went away with small ball tonight for the most part. There was a brief stint with Lebron/Kuz at center. Thankfully it was only for like 2 possessions |

Kuz/LBj can’t play center, we can’t play small ball.
Randle was the guy who would be perfect for this small ball, but he doesn’t want to be here |

The thread title says, "End small ball". BTW, have you seen Denver? They don't play small ball either, and they're killing it! _________________ Starting Lakers Dynasty6.0! NOW!!

LeBron can actually defend centers if he tries , from what I’ve seen but he doesnt like to and understandably so |

This. The bench played small ball for the most part of the game. The only difference from the last Blazers game and the rest of the games they played so far is that they inserted a true 7 foot Center playing with the rest of the 4 guys out there with Rondo, Josh, Lance and KCP. |

Good that you point out, Hart was the PF for a few possessions. Even with Zubac, I suppose that is small ball. Hart did a decent job on Collins actually. Prolly something that is not sustainable.

Wasn't the meeting before the Mavs game? |

Also like to add that with Zu out there, he helped with the Lakers poor interior defense and rebounding problems that they had the past several games. |
