    Loving AR! That pass to Ryan. Big plays and so much composure. Start him instead of BevMo.

    He's a warrior, seems like he gets crushed every game with a hard screen, but shakes it off and plays hard.

    That f***ing charge call was such b******* on AR: he'll get that call next year but I was thinking that could cost the Lakers the game right there.
    Only 4 minutes left and instead of 2 FT's, gave another shot for the Pelicans to close

    Cross count passes on the money aren't as easy as he made it look. And props to the pale horse for the good hands and nimble feet. Turns out Door Dash really prepares you to stay on your toes.

    I love Reaves’s development. I’m fine with him taking some minutes from Beverley. But are we going to look at Schroeder or Nunn? Is their offense more helpful to this team than more of Reaves’ glue game?

    If so, I’m cool with Reaves sticking to 24 mins a game. It’s kind of a sweet spot for a bench player.

    Someone has to be moved. Everyone thought that it was going to be Westbrook, but Nunn and Beverly makes more sense. Dennis gives you some full court on ball defense, and some scoring ability. He has been most effective off the bench in his career though. He and Austin playing 24-25 minutes a piece isn't a bad thing.

    if russ plays like this off the bench, we should definitely move the other two.
