To be fair they have both been injured a lot. How many of those games did they actually play together? Also they both recruited Westbrook so they take a share of the blame as well in that regard.
why do you play AD after that double OT game when he didn't look right in the first game of the b2b 29 minutes when the game wasn't close for most of the second half?
seems like a real disconnect here, lack of trust. AD clearly was not moving like usual self - he's likey motivated to try to play thru stuff to get rid of the soft, injury prone label but the FO and coaching staff have to be able to shut him down when he's clearly not himself particularly with a B2B.
You're 100% right .. I guess too many fans can't be objective and/or are just watching Lebron and AD stats lines but not the games .
i think they're mostly playing as hard as they can (AD in particular, lebron takes a lot of plays off on defense), but they each contribute to an atmosphere of expecting someone else is going to do something. they just can't be bothered to get after the atlanta hawks on a Tuesday in february. i think making the conference finals after playing crappily for most of last year didn't help this general attitude orientation, for the players or the coach.
Overall, Jeanie and the front office just haven't gotten it done. When you factor in the years before LeBron, the record of ownership is much much worse. We are fortunate to have gotten that one championship honestly.
we're really just lucky that lebron decided to sign here. the lakers would probably have the longest playoff drought in the league by a pretty wide margin if he hadn't it's just sad how a great franchise is so badly managed
this season feels like another lost season.....no expectations now, wouldn't care if they miss playoffs either, best case as it should lead to ham turning into burnt bacon
I’ll just repeat what I said in the game thread. Frank should have gotten the patience Ham is getting. Lue should’ve gotten the contract Ham got. we are now looking at Coach number 7 since 2011 and I have a feeling we will be looking for coach number 8 in roughly 2 to 3 years based on the last 13 years. Bad management all around.
we lost every quarter against the 19-27 Hawks we deserve where we are in the standings time for change
Look at the C Bags starting 5 stats from tonights game and then look at ours Thursday can't come soon enough...
unless the roster is completely overhauled at the deadline again, this team isn't going anywhere this season far too many flaws and coached by a f***ing clown
I am just going to leave this here: We are going to lose a bunch of games now, and the cherry on top will be losing at home against the Pistons. Watch.
These kind of stats are so disingenuous. Bron was in his prime both in MIA and Cleveland. He’s 110 now and takes off most play on defense totally and misses layups like they are going out of style.
If we lose a bunch more of these upcoming games I think they are going to have to seriously consider firing Hambone. He sucks and he's lost the locker room for sure. He certainly isn't helping anything.
