I think it would be Cam Johnson, Cam Thomas, filler and all the picks they got from the Suns/Mavs.
They got his boy Royce O'Neale (for now) too.

Just curious…
So if I blame wins and losses on things like starting lineups, rotations, timeouts, etc instead of players would that be considered making excuses?
A simple yes or no will do.

Nah a simple yes or no won't do. If you blame a loss on things like injuries, rotations, lineups like Ham does, its an Excuse for sure. And we tired of your excuses. You damn well know this team is UNDERACHIEVING big time. Let's not act like Bron and AD are missing a lot of games.
Phil won championships with guys like Cliff Levingston, Randy Brown, Bill Wennington, Dickey Simpkins, Jud Buechler, Bison Dele, Jordan Farmar, Scott Williams, Brian Shaw, Shannon Brown, amd Luke Walton playing key minutes in his rotations. You hear him making excuses about lineups amd injuries like ya boy Darvin?
Don't make me list all the role players other title winning coaches had to work with to support their star players.

And the years he didn’t did we blame it on him not using timeouts and what combination of role players he used off the bench?
No. Because back then all that mattered was that your superstar didn’t get it done… and if Phil lmao I mean Kobe or Shaq dropped the ball we let them hear about it all summer. Role players were just quietly replaced if they weren’t good enough.
Now if you want to say Lebron is underachieving then maybe you’d get my attention…

LMAO. Of course a lot of the blame from Lakers fans went to having poor role players around Kobe. But not once was the blame on Phil using injuries amd rotations as an excuse because we were all confident Phil knew what he was doing coaching an overachieving squad from '05-'07.

Did you see how Phil OVERACHIEVED and took Smush Parker, Chris Mihm, Kwame Brown, and Brian Cook to the playoffs with Prime Kobe? You hear any excuses then even when Kobe couldn't singlehandedly advance his team in the playoffs? Hell no. Lakers fans were disappointed we lost but not once did we ever blame Kobe or Phil because we knew Phil MAXED OUT HIS TEAM'S POTENTIAL before replacing the bad role players with good ones.
#NoExcuses.
Or how about when Phil took the Bulls to the ECSF with Pippen, Kukoc, and PETE MYERS after MJ retired??
You think Darvin could do that?
When Phil's superstars couldn't get the job done and win a title, Phil's teams still never underachieved. That's a mark of a great coach who doesn't make excuses.
You got a 40 year old Bron averaging 25-8-8 in his 50th year in the league.
The fact you think he's underachieving is proof you nothing but excuses.
Wake up buddy.

This dude thinks Bron averaging 25-8-8 at age 40 is underachieving and is using that as an excuse as to why the Lakers are playing .500 ball.
Newsflash big dog: without Bron, YOUR LAKERS would have a 10-36 record under Ham.

Bros. Not looking like Kobe’s 81 will last much longer. This new era of you can’t touch the offensive player has dudes getting 60+ nightly.
