Kuzma makes the three pointer and the lead is now down to just 3 points. Once again, the Lakers still don't know how to play respectable defense!!

 

[Retroram52]

Redick calls the timeout. There is no way in hell this game should be this close.

 

[Retroram52]

NICE OOP shot between Reaves and James.

 

[Retroram52]

The lead is 10 with those shots by James and Reaves.

 

[Retroram52]

Vincent needs to be part of any trade package in the next 10 days. Just useless.

 

[Retroram52]

I guess Redick needs another timeout with these knuckleheads!

 

[Retroram52]

James with an excellent block.

 

[Retroram52]

AD still missing FTs. Just like Shaq used to do.

 

[Retroram52]

DFS with a big three!!

 

[Retroram52]

Halftime. The Lakers lead by 10.

Out of this list, I'd try and keep AJ Jackson, 3 sacks and 22 pressures in about 900 snaps isn't bad for a LT. Robinson is getting older so he should be replaced, or the FO can back him back for the low. Hoecht can stay for cheap as a rotational piece. The rest can be shown the door.

They should keep Witherspoon too IMO. Made a lot of big plays once he got a starting role down the stretch.

Atwell is not the problem.

McVay’s utilization of him is the problem.

Depending on Robinson's free agency and Kupp's future, Atwell might have more of a role moving forward.

Rams need to see if they can trade for a LB or sign a LB. I would love to get the 49ers Greenlaw who is a free agent. We need to finally invest in a position that needs it badly, that has been a problem for many years now. Jones seems like he just wants too much money and looks to be on his 4th team in a year. Even if not Greenlaw, we could use veteran leadership at LB. Need at least two. I'm hesitant on Spreights he was pretty much a non factor besides that solo sack and ended the game with a pathetic 4 tackles, somehow Roozenboom had 7 tackles even though he seemed out of place modt of the time.

Speights is worth keeping, but could use some help. The Rams need at least the option of putting a bigger run-stuffing LB into the lineup for certain matchups. Draft a LB and sign a FA IMO.
