He took that one bullshit 3 tonight down the stretch that pissed me off but overall he been solid

Darvin Ham credited Christian Wood for getting tough defensive rebounds tonight.

"We needed every one."

Darvin Ham also praised D'Angelo Russell for his calming presence offensively.

D’Angelo Russell tonight:

28 points
2 rebounds
8 assists
1 steal
1 block
71.4% FG
50% 3PT

Preseason D'Lo

Yeah, he walked into his ideal role next to Bron and AD

Christian Wood is the truth?

And now Harden's a Flipper

Woods has been such a solid addition… Ham needs to figure out these rotations though

I feel like the Reddish over Christie is overblown. Coaches will most likely always go with a vet opposed to a young player.

Reddish could be getting in better position on defense and offense.

In general, this team needs to raise its guard play

When Vando comes back, Reddish is gonna get minutes at the backup SG spot.

If he keeps airballing and making questionable decisions like tonight though, Ham will face more intense pressure to play Christie, despite the politics and his situation.

Christie just needs to be ready when that happens.

Reddish has been mostly getting the backup SF/PF since Vando's been gone.

Ham could've had both Christie and Reddish out there and reduced Gabe Vincent's minutes.

Vincent doesn't need to be playing 35 mins a night especially when he's been shooting like s***.

7-10 of those minutes should've went to Christie. Christie could provide some defense and he definitely wouldn't shoot 0/11 from 3 like Vincent.

Ham could also give Christie some of Reaves minutes since he's struggling too.

So Ham didn't need to choose between Reddish or Christie. There's multiple reasons why Christie should be on the court.

That's why it's surprising to some that Ham is not playing Christie at all and why people are making a big deal out of it.

But it's obvious what's going on here.

Clippers tomorrow

Very overblown, and at this point Cam is a far better defender. Max just look like Kobe

There isn't much difference between the 2 because their role will not be big, especially early in the season when as a coach you have to evaluate your team and deal with the internal circumstances. Rob wouldn't let Magic tell him what to do, and people think it's Ham

It’s so cold wtf

We need vando for the clippers man

The Lakers have assigned second-round pick Maxwell Lewis to their G League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers.

Reaves needs to hit a second leg seems like he might be a lil fatigued from a busy summer.

this is a darvin ham masterclass effect

Vogel not callin timeouts again
