    The Lakers have won 8 out of the last 9 games, and are 20-8 since February 1st. All accomplished with playing, a bunch of 3 guard lineups. That s*** evidently works.

    no three small-guard lineups, which is the consistent complaint.

    you can play three big guards, no problem!

    I thought two hours later on time shift watching the game, I could still hear the outrage from my face down phone, from when it probably happened in Game Time, that Ham had AD, Prince, Gabe down in the corner, Spencer and DLO on the floor together against at the time a larger all around Wizzards lineup. Why the heck was Gabe in the lineup, at that time, if he wasn't playing up top as a ball handling guard, since he's not exactly shooting it well now. And yes, zero minutes for Cam and certainly less minutes for Max who has been shooting well from there.

    Cam and Max are slated for spot duty in the playoffs IMO. Got to stay ready tho, one of them could possibly be this season's Lonnie Walker, for a game or two in some series.

    We don't have any small guards but Vincent though, and after watching the Nets game, I realized that he's bigger than Dennis.

    I actually expect to see our 4 guard lineups a lot. Lebron is still basically, just a huge guard IMO.

    Still infuriating watching this guy trot out three guard lineups- even after a massive amount of statistical data showing that they don’t work!!!
    This team is winning despite his idiotic sabotage job nearly every single game.
    If our FO decides to keep him this summer, the tiny bit of confidence in them will be completely gone.

    what if we succeed again in spite of him, and he's back?

    I have a feeling a lot of fans will tune out for the regular season. Just not worth the frustration.

    He's still a bloody idiot. He cost us this season once again with his moronic rotations and benching Rui for 50 f***ing games.

    Unbelievable that at one piont, he had Rui, Reaves AND DLO coming off the bench!!! Unforgivable man.

    I hope somehow we can still grab the 6th spot, and if we are in the play-in, that we're the 7th seed.

    Either way, we're playing from behind once again when we shouldn't have been. Makes me so mad that we're wasting a healthy LeBron/AD year because of our d****** coach.

    Fire this f***ing guy this summer please. Only way we shouldn't is if we win it all.

    We're 2-9 when one has his minutes limited. We're 22-4 when the other has his minutes limited.

    Pure coincidence though, right?


    Also on the subject...

    Meh..and when we knock off whoever we play in the 1st rd, we are going to own their seed too. What are we going to find, to complain about then?

    Right ... all the crappy lineups and favoritism with minutes never happened.

    Who cares and what is the point on April 5th? If we were in the 6th spot today, nothing changed. We'd still have to win in order to stay there.

    Ham ain't going anywhere, you don't seem to be paying attention to what's happening.

    Out of desperation in our predicament, winning as he now gets a clue? Wait until they ask LeBron in private his thoughts on bringing Ham back prior to him re-upping .... I would expect. We're winning in spite of him with the talent we have that finally he's using sensibly some of the time, not all.
