    AR may address that in the context it happened with what he did to LeBron shortly after being teammates with them all. Or even ignore that and challenge accepted. He’s no shrinking violet. But does he need or want to get tangled up in media with that jack***?

    I don't like Beverley, but he has some stones on him.

    Damn gremlin. He did "too little" because you ran your dimwit mouth after being dumped for being stupid and useless waste of human DNA.

    And guess what, little prick, he's gonna have a much better career than you AND make more money than your scrub journeyman a**.

    I’ve always despised Pat BevMo. Nothing has changed. Least favorite player to ever don the Purple and Gold. He sucks.

    bev's clearly a little tongue-in-cheek there, i think.

    but he's still a dip****.

    There has to be some kind of stat for players that have been shooting like s***, that suddenly light it up when the Lakers come to town. It’s uncanny.

    I'd probably add The Lush to those two, with his patented push in the back foul, which he never got away with. I hated seeing him wear a Laker jersey.

    The shots will start back falling, the defense is pretty bad against ball handlers tho. With Jarred back, it might be a better idea, to give up a little size playing Austin against the SF's. Can't really hide D'Angelo, but if he's scoring and dishing dimes, you can live with it. Similarly with Austin.

    yeah, he's not good enough offensively to have to build a defense to hide him, so he has to improve a little. on both ends, really.

    i do think/hope that having both vando and cam available for a long stretch might help make our non-defenders (reaves, dlo, lebron) work a little more.

    Was the playoff shooting just a hot streak? 35.5% for his career now on pretty tiny volume.

    I was hoping he'd get up about 6+ at around 40%. It's bad when Dlo and Lebron are the best 3pt shooters. Especially since we know Lebron can go on long cold streaks

    You people are the worst. Worse than Pimple, who's the main reason for any woes AR has. And by the way, when Rui is back AR is either #8 or #9 in the rotation.

    Max and HBK should be the pairing going forward. Max can bring the ball down and taking away the pressure from Reaves

    Very effective game tonight. Honestly AR should start to get more minutes. 22 was not enough given how well he played.
