    We are so banged up. Some of our guys are playing heavy minutes out of necessity. Remember when Sacre had to play with 6th fouls cause we just ran out of players? :Bangbrick4:

    Yeah @alam1108 has a point. We were down to only 8 guys so there is a slight excuse for how close that game was. I certainly expected the Grizzlies to come out strong.

    What I didn't like was the clear pushing and shoving happening on the court. I'm all for physical play, but the refs really let this one get too far, especially with Julius. He was whacked relentlessly.

    I hate Blake Griffin so much. Congrats on taking Detroit from 9th to 9th since you joined.

    What happened? Couldn't watch the game. Box score looks in our favor. What am I missing?

    We made 6 threes, they made 13. We didn’t play defense all game except some nice possessions by Zo, Lopez, couple others. KCP couldn’t hit a thing, and while Lopez started nicely, his offense fell off, couldn’t make a 3, a layup, a banker, or a free throw. Our G-League bench also couldn’t hang, eventually playing Ennis, Wear, Zu, and tonight Frye, while 3 of your key starters have to play 38, 41, and 43 mins catches up to you. We can’t have Lopez go 6-16, and KCP go 5-17 and win with this bench.

    Heavy legs = bad defense + missed 3’s.

    My WMC? The fact that we have so many fricking players injured. Ingram, Hart, IT2...we have zero bench right now...so playing starters 40+ mpg when they're not really used to that kind of work load will take a toll.

    I'm not surprised we lost tonight. To think that we coulda been in contention for the playoffs had Ingram not gone down...ugh

    Kuz had a decent game, but I expected a bigger hometown eruption.

    Yeah Lakers medical staff's competency is nowhere close to what it should be taking Lakers wealth into account .

    There's a few reasons for going to hell. This is one of them.

    I don't take much from last night's loss. We basically rode our starters into the ground and had to try and "survive" Ennis, Wear, Zubac and Frye out there. Replace Wear with Ingram OR replace Ennis with IT (not both, just one or the other) and we win the game by 10 points. That's how bad our bench is with these injuries.

    A lineup of Caruso, Zubac, Wear, Ennis and Kuzma - straight G league squad aside from the obvious

    To be fair, they did make a nice run in the 4th quarter.

    Ennis TO on his attempt to drive behind his back was the lamest play I've seen all season long

    part of the Nike contract is the limited number of appearance for each uniform, I think we exhausted the yellow jerseys already
