Max. And you'd have seen more of it if Ham wasn't pissed that Cam wasn't the one that fit best in that situation

Lakers' most-used lineups & Net Rtg:

AD-LBJ-Rui-AR-DLo: +5.5
AD-LBJ-Prince-AR-DLo: -2.4
AD-LBJ-Prince-Reddish-DLo: +.3
AD-LBJ-Prince-Reddish-AR: -12.5
AD-Rui-Dinwiddie-AR-DLo: -4.6
AD-Rui-Prince-AR-DLo: -2.4
AD-LBJ-Rui-Dinwiddie-AR: +6.2
AD-LBJ-Prince-Max-DLo: +9.7

Maybe getting overlooked in this: The Lakers' 5th-most used lineup for the season (AD-LBJ-Dinwiddie-AR-DLo) features a guy who played his first game as a Laker on Feb 13th. Crazy.

With Max Christie, I tried to cut through the noise of garbage time via Cleaning The Glass

Max on the floor with regular rotation players (LeBron, AD, DLo, AR, Prince, Rui, SD, Gabe, Wood, Vando, Hayes) = +4.7.

That same group is +3.4 with Max off the floor
https://twitter.com/Trevor_Lane/status/1786145667334746155



AD-LBJ-Prince-Max-DLo: +9.7
AD-LBJ-Rui-Dinwiddie-AR: +6.2
AD-LBJ-Rui-AR-DLo: +5.5
AD-LBJ-Prince-Reddish-DLo: +.3
AD-LBJ-Prince-AR-DLo: -2.4
AD-Rui-Prince-AR-DLo: -2.4
AD-Rui-Dinwiddie-AR-DLo: -4.6
AD-LBJ-Prince-Reddish-AR: -12.5

Let that seep in... and the fact that Ham intentionally kept Christie out because he wanted Reddish to be the one that made the lineup work, but it was Christie instead. Then think about the fact that the analytics told him what the best lineups were and he never did it because Max wasn't who he personally chose and had favoritism towards.


We can only imagine what a AD-LBJ-Rui-Max-DLo lineup could have accomplished this season.

Post the minutes played and who they played to get a better idea of what those numbers mean.

That lineup played 79 minutes and 10 games. Not insignificant, but also not big enough to properly compare the effect size of 9.7 to the starting lineup.

In aggregate, the lineup data tells us we can't play Austin and DLo with the 3 being non-physical. That was the painful lesson it took Ham 40+ games to learn.

If Vando and Gabe were healthy, we could've staggered the two guards more and built more effective lineups. Reddish should have never been signed.

Can’t ignore the Dlo/Dinwiddie line up that is missing here regardless of how infrequently it may have been used because it is more than 3x better +/- than any other line up. The pairing of Dlo/Dinwiddie is by far the best line up.

MaxC line up is good too tho and this thread is what it’s about. MaxC had been part of the team such that if it others weren’t significantly better then MaxC should have been used instead of a new comer like Cam. The misuse of the roster imo is one of the major reasons Ham has to be relieved of his duties as coach. With the shi++ing the bed coment and lack of tact in addressing AD’s concern about the team not knowing what to do on both ends I wouldn’t be surprised if Ham’s career as an NBA head coach has been jeopardized anywhere anytime in the future.

Wish we’d seen Max instead of Dinwiddie in the playoff

My off season plan

Resign DLO-3y/70M-Deal starting around 22M
Resign Max Christie 2y7M
Resign TP ~1y5M
Hope C.Wood opt in
Realistic offseason targets-Kris Dunn and Goga along with one of Josh Richardson or Melton

Trade
Shop Rui+Gabe+JHS+17 for BPA. Can take back around 36-38M.
Players in that range-Donovan Mitchell/Jermai Grant/Ingram/Marcus Smart/D.Murray

I would like to see Reaves moved into a 6th man role if we are able to pick up a 2way 2 guard. Or if its Max.

AD/Goga
LeBron/Wood
J.Grant/Vando
Kris Dunn or Max/Prince
DLo/Reaves

Hopefully we have a coach that can optimze Christian Wood and he comes back motivated in a contract year.

No. Those type of moves should only be for someone who would make us favorites. Not many of those types. Mitchell maybe. Trae Young no.

Lauri would probably make our defense worse. LeBron days of being a 3 full time are long gone.

Woj. keeps implying the Lakers are going to make a major move and they have the assets to do it.

Usually it’s Woj. in the media consistently trying to tear down the Lakers ability to get better.

So the shift is interesting.

If we go all in on Mitchell (I doubt we have enough but he could have some leverage if he want out basically being on an exp k)

2024 1st (17)
2029 1st
Right to swap in 2023 1st
2031 1st
Rui+Vincent+JHS

I would like our team with the right VM signings/energy guys (Dunn/Goga)

AD/Goga/Theis
LeBron/Wood
Vando/TP/Lewis
Mitchell/Christie
DLo/Reaves/Dunn

The Jimmy Butler era in Miami could be ‘nearing a tipping point,’ per @davidaldridgedc

“There have been murmurings this year that Butler and the Heat may no longer be singing from the same hymnal. Butler, famously, does things his way, and Miami’s organization, famously, does not brook much individualism.”

I can see Butler going back to Philly if they can't get PG13.

He will be 35 by the time the season starts.

If we are going all in on a 3rd star (again) I hope it's for one in their 20's.

Ham was definitely a bad coach and the Lakers are better with even an average head coach in place of him, but I hated how fans placed the blame solely on him for their mediocrity.

The roster isn't great. It needs 1 significant move AND some smaller moves.

The players themselves are almost ALWAYS the biggest problem.

Eric Spoelstra wouldn't lead this team to a ring as is.

also for a player that has couple of years left on his deal. Lauri i think is an expirer who will command near max in summer


If we get to keep AR and get Markannen for Rui and picks/swaps only, this can be our starting unit (assuming DLo leaves)

Bron-AR-Vando-Markannen-AD (we shouldn’t be outrebounded ever)

Gabe-Max-Cam-Wood-Hayes

Bronny-JHS-Max L-Castleton

also for a player that has couple of years left on his deal. Lauri i think is an expirer who will command near max in summer


If we get to keep AR and get Markannen for Rui and picks/swaps only, this can be our starting unit (assuming DLo leaves)

Bron-AR-Vando-Markannen-AD (we shouldn’t be outrebounded ever)

Gabe-Max-Cam-Wood-Hayes

Bronny-JHS-Max L-Castleton


Sterting PGs?

Would y’all empty the cupboard for Markannen?

Rui+3FRPs+3 swaps for Markannen?


If they hire Redick as the HC I wouldn't be surprised if they do something like this.. Both Lebron and Redick were raving about Markkanen.

He is still only 26 so should only be entering his prime. His game should fit next to any star. After Lebron hangs 'em up they could bring in just about any superstar and Lauri's game would fit next to them.
