Looked like LeBron got spooked by Roddy’s size. Lakers are in good shape, though.

To bad this team doesn't have a 2020 Dwight or Rondo. That would be a much more reliable team

Lebron is 38 with an injury I don't expect much more. He decides when he plays and when don't worst are our PGS one doing anything and other out with fouls in 3 minutes.

With this Lebron you aren't going to win to much and AD the same. They don't have enough energy and consistency. And players like Rusell are a hole on both ends.

The refs **** the tempo it's funny too

They still in the game because it's too long but I don't have to much hopes for how are they showing

Praying AD is OK...Ham needs to unleash the black Bamba in 2nd half. Our defense has been horrible on Jackson Jr. LeBron and Rui are not big and strong enough to guard him in the post. Maybe play Bamba more in 2nd half whether AD can go or not.

Freaking soft ass defense on Jackson what a hell is that. They are letting him score layups. This team has to many holes. Russell at least giving free points having the game close in the end of the quarter even playing horrible

We had 10 pt lead at once but Ham stuck with ineffective lineup and cost us the lead. That was bad coaching decision. LeBron had 2 silly TOs that led to straight basket la by Memphis. Need to take better care of the ball in the 2nd half. Dlo needs to shoot less 3. Man up and attack the rim and try to draw some fouls.

The second unit with Lebron at the start of the 2nd is just not good. No chemistry. We really need to figure that out.

The refs killed them with fouls for touch the opponent. How you can get rhythm if they call you a foul every three seconds.

That unit lack a center no doubt. Still is Lebron fault the guy is just **** coming with an injury at 38 he had to run those minutes and he throwed the lead
