    Since that 1st quarter of game 1 lakers have had us completely clamped. Luckily we got some timely 3s that last 3 min but we have no answer to their defense guys.

    Looks like a blow out. In order for us to win we gotta hit shots. Because refs will screw us.

    Dame is literally the only player that showed up tonight. Maybe Trent.

    This is why I want to trade CJ. It's feast or famine and right now it's famine. He's killing our team.

    I don't know how many 5 man lineups he's tried in the second quarter. They have one lineup that has proven to work. Dame/CJ/Gary/Melo/Nurk.

    Instead we ran Mario, sometimes Simons, minutes with both Wenyen and Nurk, Nurk and Hassan with Melo at SF.

    Like, what the fuck?

    No energy at all... this is over. If we can comeback, we need Super Dame

    It only makes sense to use them when two of their bigs are on the floor. If not, it only kills our spacing and has us scattering all over on defense. How the hell can we see this but this fucking idiot coach cant

    You don't mind losing? I've never seen evidence of that.

    Well that was a pathetic effort. We have to get our offense working. We just need to run our sets. They aren't doing anything special we just need to focus on our game on that end. We also have to clog that paint and rebound on defense... they're not going to out shoot us. Still have a shot in this one, can't give up.

    This is where having it on a neutral floor can come up to bite them in the butt. They don't really have the luxury of saying they are glad to be 1-1 heading to Portland.

    How do you not feed Nurkic the ball when Kuzma is guarding him in the post? Stotts is so clueless.
