A mature individual say the stuff he did about Ham without mentioning another player. Can get your criticizm of the coach off without bringing down another player.

Ham clearly plays favorites with anyone that he has history with. I don't see where any of this is negative about Dennis; it's about Ham.

I think it is clear that this is the line that Dennis took offense to " And we got swept and I'm here and he's not. And I like our chances."

If that is bothering Dennis, I think he's remorseful about not taking the Lakers' MLE. Dennis left for a clear starting job in Toronto and didn't stick past the deadline.

Article came out on Wednesday and short end of it is he dropped Dennis came a lot for the reason why he and ham don’t have a bad relationship. Cool to say what you want about Ham but name dropping another player is lame especially when you already had a reputation of being a snitch from what he did in his first lakers stint

Yeah, literally just saw it before I logged on. I get what he's saying and he's probably not wrong, most coaches like to stick with guys they know...but you can't say that, especially dropping another players name with it.

Yeah, because no coach likes to stick with players they're familiar with or a type of player they prefer.

It's not about Ham either...it's about D-Lo saying shit he didn't need to say.

Agree...one thing to drop a guys name...but that line was low key blaming Dennis for the loss. Not like D-Lo played well in that series either.

Denver looking real sluggish since that big 1st quarter.

Sluggish is just how Jokic plays, usually ends up ok

They've started the 4th hot so that’s promising.

Pelicans handled the Clippers, brings them within 2 games of the 4 seed.

Not enough people talk about the pels. I like their team especially if at least 1 of their big 3 can take their game to another level in the playoffs. Got shooters, defenders, and a big to bang with the bigger centers which are the type of role players you need to have a balanced roster

Nope. He lacks the athleticism that Embiid does. Literally the only thing Jokic does better than Embiid is pass. I have a lot of respect for your basketball opinion but you’re dead wrong here. You can talk about Jokic’s game making teammates better to a greater extent than Embiid. You can talk about Jokic’s exceptional vision. Entire package? It’s Embiid all day long.



This is silly talk. They aren’t two separate metrics. It’s a Venn Diagram. Skills come from athleticism.

This I agree with when we look at the finished product.



Can we agree though that Giannis game is just plowing over people and that Giannis has no bag?

It is pretty simple really.

Embiid and Jokic are very close as far who is who the better overall player is.

Embiid is hands down the better athlete and the better defender.

Jokic is the more skilled offensive player.

Yes, Embiid is the better scorer. Joker is a better passer and a much better ball handler.

He is more skilled.

And yes, Giannis offensive game is derived from his athleticism. Joker’s offensive game is 100% built around his skill set.

If that's what you were trying to get at.

All tied up where it matters, the loss column. Thunder have the tiebreak at the moment as well.

The top of the standings would be 1st, not 2nd.
