Official Whine, Moan, Complain Thread 19/20-CLOSED "WE CHAMPS!"

if you gona zone at least make it respectable....never seen a zine that gives up wide open shots and easy buckets in the paint before

 

Looked like a lottery team out there tonight. I don’t care that this was a second night of a b2b, that was piss poor effort.

 

We have too many vets out right now. I like Svi and Moe, but the youth to vet balance is off right now. Young players = Inconsistency. Especially on B2B's on the road.

 

Let's not enable the remaining players with excuses. Next man up. No excuses. Supposed to have the all time greatest leader on the squad. We just sucked tonight, and it started with him.

 

Luke has very unintelligent basketball players on his team. The fact that he would make them run the zone, only adds to how dumb he is as a coach.

 

I agree, but the effort was not there tonight and every single person from top to bottom deserves 10000% of the blame.

I’m really curious to how the media is gonna spin this one. Lebron needs help? Luke needs to be fired? Lakers need another superstar?....

 

im sorry, half the main players are 21 year olds, so saying anything about being tired is a joke. Lakers need to carry Lebron sometimes. That is a given. Thats common sense. The issue with that is, they aren't resilient and then they hear stupid s*** like "oh, its back to back on less than 24 hours from the last game", and they start to tell themselves they are playing too much. It is what it is.

 

- No Javale
- 2nd of a back-to-back
- Turnovers
- FTs (still)
- Refs (still)

 

I mean, its not like yesterday was a double overtime game. The effort out there was awful.

 

Lonzo and Hart looked like 2nd year players playing against an all star backcourt. We missed McGee badly today too.

 

I agree. I’m a firm believer that a team takes on the identity of its biggest star. When they see Lebron miss FTs, they follow suit and do the same.

 

Eff the ref "prison style" that watched face on 10' away Lonzo get knocked out of the air high up on that layup attempt to the floor and swallowed his whistle. WTF you moron?

 

Everyone can make excuses but Washington had lost 4 in a row and were missing like half their team (Otto was out, Oubre/Rivers traded so they were out, Morris out)...and they spanked us.

That is inexcusable. We can't have losses like this to eastern conference teams on the road even if it is 2nd night of a b2b (we blew out charlotte night before so don't give me that BS!!!)

if we lose BKN...this would have been a terrible road trip and a failure of one and we'll need to literally win the next 7 game to make up for it.

 

We’re 5-7 without BI. But we’re a much better team without him.

 

small ball has not worked in any capacity but luke continues it
