    Assistant Coach Rondo from the bench is a boost that will definitely help the team especially on the road.

    Bummer. More time for Lonzo, though, and hopefully he responds well to the increase in minutes/responsibility. He should be fine. Bench unit will have to rely on Lance a bit for playmaking (yikes). Will we see more of Svi and maybe some of Mo?

    Hart should have the bulk of the time here. KCP, too if he continues his shooting from that Portland game

    Wondering if Luke has the balls to bench Ingram, so that he can lead the bench as PG, and start Hart.

    Ball, Hart, Lebron, Kuz, McGee.
    Ingram, KCP, Lance, Chandler

    If Ingram would embrace that I would love to see it. Also knowing we are talking about team first, still would prefer maybe to not mess with BIs head right now. Still figuring out where he fits in the LBJ Lakers universe. Can accomplish a lot of that by pulling him early and then bringing back when Lonzo has to go out. More minutes for BI and more minutes for Hart. I'm pretty stoked about that.

    Kuz no D in the starting lineup is one of the problems, not BI. Kuz is perfectly suited to come off the bench as the offensive spark plug. Hart 2 way ability would be better with BI so we wont have these slow starts

    Lonzo, Hart, Ingram, James, McGee is a good starter for us.

    Still not sure why this isn't the case. I'm po'd at Luke for not figuring this out by now. It's kind of absurd. Especially after our horrible start against Portland. Down 14 at one point in the first quarter. Play your best defensive lineup to start!

    On top of it Kuz has been kind of stinking lately. If you're not playing well you shouldn't start. But beyond that Hart is a better fit for the starters than Kuz is because he's a two way player and BI is out of position at 2.

    wasn't this the lineup by gm 3 or so? And they started the game really HOT but couldn't finish...the weird part to is seeing Hart as the backup PF, if there's a player for that role is freakin Kuz but instead luke and his revolutionary lineup of 4 guards and C :Sviseriously:

    It was funny seeing him there with the clipboard. We should keep him as an assistant eventually.

    We need to keep him and turn him into an assistant coach when he retires from playing.

    hope we can retain him going forward, could be another ex cbag that helps us win a chip (Fox). Plus his talking is important as it obvious most of our guys dont talk for s*** thats why these young guys get lost on D all the time.
