There are players on the court right now that will never play together in the regular season you will see one or two of them playing with higher caliber players relax |

All these turnovers aren't making me feel particularly confident about Ham. |

The lack of athleticism on the roster has shown on the boards |

You’re kidding me, right? It’s game one of a meaningless preseason game. They looked at least somewhat competent together in the first half even with Lebron rusty as hell. Why risk injury? Plenty of time to gel later. |

I read this every time we are horrible in the preseason but there is a correlation between preseason success and regular season success. Sure, one game isn’t an issue. But good teams don’t routinely get annihilated, even in the preseason. _________________ 14-5-3-12 |

Shall we say, some of the players who hope to be in the rotation didn’t have a great showing today. _________________ Austin Reaves keeps his game tight, like Kobe Bryant on game night. |

I just think we need to see them click together, all these pre season games are Important in preparation for the start of the season where the schedule is gonna be a slot of tough games. |

Some of you really need to think before you post. You are really exposing your basketball ignorance. |

He supposed to be instilling a new mentality.
These players were throwing lazy cross court passes like there weren't going to be any consequences. |

So after a film session, we see if they make the same mistakes in game 2 or not. _________________ 💜💛 🏆 👀 🍖 #18!!! |

I didn't take that from the turnovers. First half of the game was completely different. That says to me that the second half was more experimental line up of folks that never play together. If they still look like this in November I'll be tapping my foot and in December I'll be 🤨. But preseason game one I'll give them some slack. |

Fair enough... I just thought they would be playing with more discipline.
Hopefully we will see some adjustments. |

Wenyen's non-stop movement, doesn't box out. No fundamentals. |

We really have a crappy roster.
Outside of Lebron, Davis and Westbrook, it’s crap. |

Wednesday is gonna be another blow out unless Ham gets off his high horse and let the guys get used to each other instead of experimenting with BS line ups. |

LeBron has already said he intends to play every preseason game this year. So I'm sure they'll be ramping up on the main guys minutes
Ankywhoo. Oh well Game 1 |

What's your favorite team in the league where you take our their top 3 players (slash highest paid).
The clippers? They're pretty good even without PG and Kawhi and sometimes Reggie? The Warriors without Klay, Steph and Dray? _________________ 💜💛 🏆 👀 🍖 #18!!! |
