##This isn’t a one game reaction to last night and yes I acknowledge that we have injuries so we aren’t fully healthy but aside from injuries our roster is deep and is pretty well rounded with room to improve like any other team.

The Problem - Coach and Scheming

  1. Sixers/Nurse: This team looks good. Spooky good. It’s just regular season and we are only 20 games in but look at the difference of this team and last week. You can say Maxey developed into a super star but the coaching and game plan in bringing out the best out of the whole team.

  2. Rockets/Ime: Ime has shown before he was a defensive specialist and he transformed the rockets within 20 games with new players.

  3. Nuggets/Malone: Yes I know they have Jokic but they didn’t have him or Jamal last game. They just beat the Clippers granted they are dysfunctional.

Ham is fine as a players coach and isn’t an awful coach at all. He experiments a lot and is quick to make changes but the bigger problem is our offensive identity as a whole. We don’t have a robust free flowing offense, we are slow to get into a play, we don’t get easy mismatches for AD, we tend to be stagnant.

    Being deep doesn’t mean shit if the depth has no continuity

    I love the lakers, but they are NOT one of the deepest teams in the league. Yes they have a lot of guys who would be great 7th men on a championship squad, but 3-6 are extremely weak compared to the competition.

    Austin << Aaron Gordon << Jrue holiday D’lo is not in the same league as jaden mcdaniels or Rudy gobert etc

    3/5 starters for the lakers are minimum replacement level guys right now. That’s not depth. I know what you mean with lots of capable guys on the roster, but it’s too rose colored glasses for me

    They are deep but their coach doesn’t get the most out of their guys. Rui barley plays and when he does, he’s stuck in the corner with no plays drawn up for him

    I don’t agree that we’re deep, but I agree with every other thing you said, word for word.

    We lack a good, flowing offensive system.

    Ham is absolutely an awful coach… he has ridden a very talented roster to wins when he a built in advantage (ie other team with key players out, on a back to back, etc…) he hasn’t won a single game this year except against unproven teams with key injuries or missing players. And last year lost very winnable games after the deadline that would have kept LA out of the play in games and then beat 2 very compromised teams with no size (we know Bron & AD punish small ball) & then got exposed by the 1 healthy roster he faced…
