    I wasn’t able to watch the game, but I wondered how we did so well so soon after losing AD. So I checked the box score and saw Bev didn’t play. Instantly made sense.

    f*** him.

    Worst $13m in the league. Actually did a quick scan, the only two players nearly as worthless making $10m-$15m this year.
    1) Danny Green @ $10m. Hurt. Grizz will use him at the deadline to get a piece.
    2) Deandre Jordan @ $10.7m this year. Det is still paying him $7.8m this year as part of his go away money. Not sure why Denver chose to pay him anything.

    Point is, neither start. One doesn't have an active role with the team. Our mother f***er is the starting point guard for the biggest NBA team in the world. Disgracing the jersey every time he puts it on. Yay.

    He’s a jack@$& on top of being annoying, a dirty player and completely washed. I still can’t fathom that this is the one trade Rob made this off-season. Move him and worthless Nunn for someone useful please. I hated the trade when it happened and hate it even more now.

    that horrific hook shot he dumped in prior to the d****** trash talk...my goodness.

    if huerter didn't get stuffed by the rim on that blow-by, the clips would have been a meme template.

    Just another move that the Lakers made that only makes sense if they expected to trade Westbrook!
    Just like the Shroeder signing.

    If you don't plan on making that trade: Stanley would actually be much more useful. Just like last year another guy with size at the wing and the team looked night and day. (That being said I have no idea what Ham is doing with these starting lineups: you traded for the guy so it's not like you made a FA promise. )

    Have never liked this guy and still don’t. Who could … for all the obvious reasons? But he’s not really playing that badly now. And he can annoy larger players on switches probably better than Schroder. I’d bench Dennis and start Brown again since both he and Walker especially looked better at the start of the season with that starting lineup. For whatever the reasons were.

    He's now up to 39.2% from the field and 32.7% from three after an awful start. He's trending up :Kobe Shrug:

    He still absolutely has to be moved by the deadline with Nunn and Russ to clear out the glut of guards and capitalize on their expiring's.

    yeah, that team-wide shooting slump to start the season was jut bizarre and very destructive. again, if we'd have just been our normal "bad", we may pick up a couple wins and a lot of confidence.

    Yup, mentioned this in the transactions thread but Bev shot 48% from the field and 40% from 3 in December.

    I’ve got no issues with that. I think that’s all any of us realistically hoped for at the beginning of the season. And from what I recall, the analytics say he’s still a good defender (not elite, not capable of guarding tall wings, but still good).

    But it’s still not nearly enough production as we need, and his contract probably makes the most sense to trade for better help.

    Hopefully him finding his three point shot again makes us look less desperate in negotiations and/or other potential trade partners start to see him as someone who they can actually use on the court rather than just an expiring.

    He's got to be one of the most disillusioned athletes in the history of the universe

    This is from the Kevin Hart ice bath interview show...

    yeah, he's not the anchor he was for the first several weeks of the season, which complicates things in some ways.

    he's mad because he feels like he's been a part of winning teams everywhere but nobody appreciated him. i do agree with him that it was kind of whack for the clips to ask him to take less than half his salary from the previous year to stay on there. that's a bit of a slap. had we done that, it would be an ongoing national news story about how we don't appreciate players, etc.

    Thought the team was getting a 3 and D guy instead the Lakers get a guy who thinks he's Chris Paul. Guess what he clearly is not and the dude does some of the dumbest stuff out there (actually overthrew Lebron Freakin James on a lob, fouling Rozier with 1 second left on the shot clock)

    the rozier play was tough because he had played excellent d up until he reached. you could tell he was mad at himself but couldn't contain the urge.

    i feel like we put them away more easily if reaves is playing down the stretch instead of bev, though. reaves is a great release valve when teams load up on lebron. bev can't handle the playmaking duties.
