I would've played more Beasley and less Hart in the Rockets game.



The way Hart has been shooting for the past 3 weeks I would have played anyone instead of him. Laker staff seem to see something still despite the terrible streak of shooting...

Why does he refuse to shoot 3s?

He can make them but he turns them down every single time.

It's so frustrating to watch.

uhm, what is his three shooting percentage? and I'm okay with him going for the higher percentage shot, closer to the basket.

Agree...I'm sick and tired of this team jacking up 3's. At least he knows to take the ball to the rim. Unlike some stubborn players on this team.

I still think if not for his personal issues (mothers health) keeping him away from the team and developing a role....he would have been able to help us this year. I wish him well.

Yeah. He was actually one of the signings I was like, "Ok, makes sense in a weird way."

He's had a hellacious year dealing with his ailing mother and her death. Wish him the best too.

Interesting that no one who stuck a mic in his face on the way out the door was able to get him to back stab Luke.

Beasley was traded because he called Luke "bro". Well not just that but likely the final sign that Beas wasn't compatible with Luke's "no coaching" coaching style.

Beasley didn't shoot well from the 3 although his career average from 3 is about league average at 35%. His overall FG was 49% and he put up decent production in limited minutes.

Good luck in China

I guess Luke hasn't "lost the locker room" after all. No matter what some posters here seem to believe.

Dang.
Maybe if Beas chose OKC over the Lakers, the Lakers could have had a shot at Morris.
