Yeah AD usually the one that give nugs fits. It’ll be tough but here’s hoping they keep the hot streak alive

Bron and TB will get buckets at the rim.

Gotta keep going at Joker in the paint. AG in past years gives bron many fits but maybe they do enough to keep him at bay again like earlier in the season.
Murray feels like we due for a big game from him.

Feels like the pacers will throw a bag at Myles and he won't turn it down. Probably gonna be Boogie and Kuz or whatever wing they can get from the waiver wire

also cousins is done just like collison was
ham gots his man in thomas bryant and might wanna think about playing damion jones. you know a player aint gonna be any good unless you know you play him on a regular basis?

They needed another big anyways, but I wonder if another reason they are working out bigs is because there are no wings available on the trade market with their resources, so they'll just go big and shift Bron back to SF and AD to PF.

For Hield and Turner, I'd give up both.
For Turner only, I'd give up a first rounder and a second rounder.
But acquiring Mo Bamba for only a second rounder or no picks at all may be the better move since there's a good chance Turner comes to the Lakers anyway as a UFA in the offseason.

I think the Lakers believe getting a Big that can allow AD to move back to his natural PF position is a bigger priority than getting a wing.

Damian Jones is a useless stiff who has poor practice habits. That's why he doesn't play and is why Pelinka is looking for a center.

If it was poor practice habits, wouldn’t Rob and Handy have known this? They brought him back remember?
We probably lose tonight. Good news is suns, clippers, jazz will most likely lose tomorrow

They brought him back thinking he would be a good piece but then saw after a few months of practice that he underperformed both in practice (TB probably earing him up) and obviously he sucks in games

Is there a quote from Ham about Jones’ poor practice habits? If not, it’s just speculation.

Something like that wouldn't be released to the public.
But conventional wisdom and thinking says that if a player is healthy but isn't seeing the court during games, it's likely because the player is in the coach's doghouse.
And when someone is in the coach's doghouse,it's usually cause the player ain't succeeding in whatever he's doing behind the scenes (i.e, practice, training, etc)
