    I think he lacks stamina. A bit like Caruso.

    He is playing all the important minutes down the stretch which shows Ham sees his worth. And we have seen hitting the "rookie wall" before and he does have shooting slumps, which I believe is linked to the legs. I believe that's the reason Ham is managing his minutes and if I so I agree with that approach

    Reaves is going to have to carry the team while our big money guys sit out with lingering injuries

    When Reaves is good: Lakers win. When Reaves is bad: Lakers lose.

    Ideally he should be 4th best dude on this team but right now he's the second

    Having guys like him, Dennis and Malik out there at the end of the game means we can't just get hacked anymore. So refreshing. And yes, AR does everything for us. Such a useful player. OK, he's obviously not a PG, but he can still do a little bit of everything.

    Yea man! I'm frankly nuts about AR15. Just total baller. As others often point out, "scrappy" - which anyone can write about EVERY game this guy plays for us - but indeed: he does a bit of everything. Undrafted and found money for us.

    My favorite play in the GSW game was him putting his arms up in GSW's transition in the back court: he saw where the ball was probably going to go, like he had eyes in the back of his head, and knocked down their pass.

    If OKC can beat Utah tonight at OKC, we will have the same record as Utah and be tied for #10.

    haven't seen whole game yet, but man, we put a lot on his lap (from the parts i saw) against a very good opponent, and he scratched and clawed and delivered.

    8 assists and 16 points.
    That’s pretty great PG production from your FOURTH initiator of the offense in the pecking order.

    He's the kind of player every team wants (hopefully not this summer). Smart, scrappy, hungry, efficient, chip on the shoulder, not phased by the bright lights.






    Smooth

    A measure of how acidic or basic a substance or solution is    . pH is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. On this scale, a pH value of 7 is neutral, which means it is neither acidic nor basic. A pH value of less than 7 means it is more acidic, and a pH value of more than 7 means it is more basic.

    Reaves is my guy. Has been since he got here last year. He's pretty astonishing in how much he gets the game. He's a wiz.
