    Need someone to orchestrate the offense. Sengun should start his action on the nail not the wing.

    Turnovers are keeping the Lakers close. Sengun with 4 has to clean that up.

    KD, Amen and Tari need to finish the 1st half.

    Reed being visibly bothered on the perimter by the defense and nobody doin nothin but witnessing him being flustered. It’s the same bs tha thappened when Jalen used to be sole ballhandler and you can see the defense bothering him. None of the teammates react. This team or core just lack bball iq

    Reed is only shooter out there and they’re willing to double him, Okogi has been great but lately we’re loosing heavily when he is out there, he’s turning into Tate 2.0

    Happened to me on the court before.

    Just temporarily shoulder popped out of the socket.

    Take a few minutes to pop it right into place.

    He makes a lot of his plays by anticipation so it's a given he's going to have some TOs. He really just has to be more aggressive, a lot of these times he could shoot instead of passing and we'd be alright. Especially with Adams in the game, we're like the best offensive rebounding team in the league.

    This lineup has no ball handler and nobody able to create on the perimeter. I get letting Reed get PG reps but his ball handling is nowhere near ready for the big stage. Hell, I wouldn’t even put Reed’s ball handling skills at Jeremy Lins level right now.

    Jesus been like 5min of Alpi, Adams, Reed, Josh, Bari … just asking for turnovers and stalled offense… not running no PnR action … just Reed dribbling around aimlessly and Alpi fumbling the ball while he and Adams clog up the paint

    I hate watching him try to do anything on the perimeter. Our coach doesn’t understand his players’ strengths and weaknesses. Alpi should not be at the perimeter because he can’t shoot. He needs to be in the post dominating mismatches.

    They're face guarding now.

    Use the backdoor cuts, c'mon.

    The entire offense used to be everyone running around screening for Jalen to get him free because he can't beat anyone off the dribble.

    Did you ever watch a game before?

    Sengun’s turnovers getting to be a problem. In his defense, Sheppard has awful court vision.
