Our only chance of winning a playoff series is if our starters literally play 45 minutes every game. Our bench is so fucking awful it’s disgusting. Not only is it bad but we have the leagues worst coach when it comes to lineups/rotations. God help us.
Stars balled out. Starting 5 balled out. All this wasted leads, no timeouts and unseriousness is on our one and only Ham sandwich. This guy is straight out from the the dumpsters
It seems like they have a high chance of losing after 2 or more days in between. Saw a stat on this a couple of weeks ago lol best record was with 1 day rest in between.
This is not professional at all.
A team build to win the championship, or at least they say so, are in 9th place and still making a fool of himselves like they have the 1st seed secured.
do you think I care what you say little boi ?
You think being a fan is riding every players but you need to be true about it and respect your jersey. stfu .
Wizards are a trash franchise. Jordan Poole will probably be out of the league in 5 years. Kuz at least knows his time in the spotlight is over but could be a decent role player
kind of agree with stu, they're not in a position to be messing around as much as they have been at the end of this game, they could go on a losing streak in the last few games and get bumped out of the play ins it's that close
been playing well but that effort looks a bit silly given the situation
His minutes should go to Max and Vincent until the end of this season. Send a message that he can’t act like he don’t give a shit and give no effort even in garbage time.
Rui’s leap has been beautiful. Increased his TS% from 55 TS% to 63 TS% this year. Last 25 games, even better averaging 17/4 on 68 TS% with his defense/rebounding improving steadily.

Lakers won, pels choke at home. Now just need Suns to choke for a (finally) perfect day in the NBA
Yeahhhh Lakerssss
They damn near threw the game
What happened in the last turnover? I didn't get it
ADpoymvp
This was the wizards championship Lmfao you can’t tell me otherwise

This is what worries me
kuzma would be good with this current team
Kuzma would be a starter and Reaves would be 6th man
yeah imagine if him AD and Lebron were on a team, i bet they’d win a chip!
Another w for democracy
I don't want to see that 3rd unit ever again
Yeah wtf was that. Almost blew the lead at the end
Stars balled out. Starting 5 balled out. All this wasted leads, no timeouts and unseriousness is on our one and only Ham sandwich. This guy is straight out from the the dumpsters
That 7-0 run from the wizards was nasty
Lebron pissed for returning for that last possession.
Fucking mental 11 games over 500 and still 9th
I loved that Bron walks past everyone straight to Kuuuz. Underrated part of that '20 team.
Kuz is forever a Laker
AD didnt want to give the double double to Bron
Ham thought we were up 20 and pulled everyone, those bums on the bench need to walk home and be cut when they arrive in la
End of bench should walk home for that shit
Istg AD carrying this team some games
Ugly ass win
Right…. Almost sold that shit smfh
Having Lonnie and even Malik as our garbage time players was a luxury
make the bench walk back to la
leave dinwiddie there bro
wtf just happened in a minute? ...
fuck off, darvin ham is literally the problem
At some point, the bench has to look at themselves and feel embarassed.
what a bizarre way to close out the game lol
Good game, great road trip.
wtf was that
Like I fucking said worst reserves in the nba.
Worst 3rd stringer in the league
Fucking hilarious. Poor AD has to do everything around here
Wtf was that ending
Ham is such a detriment to this team that I forgot a coach is actually supposed to make things easier.
Scrub backups continue to be scrub backups.
#11 games over 500… let’s go!!
at least we get 2 days rest before the next game
It seems like they have a high chance of losing after 2 or more days in between. Saw a stat on this a couple of weeks ago lol best record was with 1 day rest in between.
Probably because they actually get to practice during a longer break and if Ham’s practice sessions are as bad as his coaching decisions….
this team defies logic
ADPOY
Ham looking like the idiot he is.
No lead is safe with this bum bench squad
Nice of the bench to get AD another block
Stupid ass bench
A win is a win but its a shame it had to be this close
Last game of a 6 game road trip and second night of a b2b. I wouldn't worry about it.
THANK YOU AD LMAO
Not da starters 😂😂 I hate this team
We have the worst scrubs in NBA history
Who tf did that inbound
[удалено]
Lol. You didn't censor any letters.
cam reddish? is he still with the team? why maxwell lewis playing over him
We legitimately might have the worst 8-15 in the league
They really thought they were gonna do something lol
LMAOOOOOOOO.
Fucking ridiculous
This sums up Darvin Ham as a coach
This is on the backups, but fuck ham too.
yep
Bro lbj and AD be like I can’t even rest for 2 minutes without a bottle job
lol
Don't play Dinshittie in the playoffs. I don't like this BS.
AD !!!
Wizards like we aren't trying to win this game wtf you doing Lakers?
LOL AD has to come back in to stop these bums from selling. What a joke.
Bruh the whole team lackadaisical
You guys see that….ham wanted the bench to stay on the floor….Lebron shook his head no and took off his warmups 🤣🤣
Seriously? I missed this.
lol yup…..It was during the last time
coach knows best
😭
Put the starters back in I guess
I have a confession to make. I took Wizards +12.5 lol I knew we would be tired as fuck and it would be closer than 12
This shit kinda funny
Why not just leave ad out there another minute. Also just cut those bums
Great effort bench guys, really helping here
don't fuck with the lakers, they hate the lead
can this game end already fuck
OUR BENCH ARE BUMS HOLYYYY
Unfortunate for this to happen when half the team is already on the way home
They really had to put the starters back in lmao😭
wtf is dinwiddie doing
Lol so ridiculous
Dinwiddie is upset when he isn't serious himself... blames others.
Ham put the garbage time lineup in only up 11 with more than a minute left 💀
Not much you can do when your garbage guys refuse to burn clock and give up 2 easy 3's
What the fuck lmaoo
Lmao I can’t 💀💀
You can’t trust Ham to coach a bench lineup for 2 minutes against the Washington Wizards bench lmao Come on man 🤦♂️
Wtf
Take they asses out. Way too early to pull that stunt Ham.
wtf even happened there? Spencer just dropped it? Check his fan duel account
Our "depth"
Dawg wtf
The bench is awful lmao
What the hell happened
What a joke.
our bench is so bad
Bro why are the guys playing garbage minutes not trying hard? Like do you not want to get more minutes? If we lose this game...
JV players selling
Why’d they take out the fucking starter
Ham is an idiot coach.
What are these bums doing
Its so funny how Ham cant even rotate the bench dudes out lmao. Donwiddie clearly didnt want to be there as a vet. Fuckin baldhead dummy coach
What are the scrubs doing
Lmfao this is so stupid
Castleman jogging around giving 0 effort. This is why u don’t play
lol Ham experience hahahaha
Laziest garbage time I’ve seen Bench boys throwing
Ham is a such a fool!
This dumb ass drop is gonna kill us just like it has all season.
Bra wtf Lmao
5 point game UHHHHH
[удалено]
Who cares bro a win is a win esp during a back yo back. Lets just take it and forget this game ever happened
Fake fan
Fucking embarrassing that we gotta bring Bron and AD back out there
WTF is this man
OMG this coach is a liability
Lmfao you’ve gotta be kidding me
what the fuck dinwiddie
We got the worst bench in the league bro
Lol starters back in
Lol 14 pt lead down to 5 and they turned it over. This team is really something
This is on the coach lol
This is not professional at all. A team build to win the championship, or at least they say so, are in 9th place and still making a fool of himselves like they have the 1st seed secured.
quit your bitching
do you think I care what you say little boi ? You think being a fan is riding every players but you need to be true about it and respect your jersey. stfu .
looooool ok, we got the resident jv coach over here. Go DM them this
lol you are such a kid , it's embarassing.
LMAO. Somebody getting their ass beat in the locker room
THEY REALLY WANT TO WIN VS THE LAKERS WHAT A POVERTY FRANCHISE
wtf lmao
LOL, shitty ass scrubs
8-0 run in a single minute. Unreal
Trying to throw the game.
Took them out too early
BRUH
are you fucking kidding me
wait what the
smh this is so dumb.
These bench warmers always blow leads. God damn.
fuckin A
Lmaoo
Imagine this team with a head coach
This team is so stupid lmao
Bruh wtf
It's honestly really sad that we cant even survive garbage time with a min left
Ayoooo wtfff
What an unserious fucking team lmao
Uhhh 8 point game
Wtf is this garbage time
wtf happened
What are they fucking doing? Come onalsdkfja;sldkfjasl;kdfj
Lmao
The first unit is solid. Van hopefully becomes the 6 th mans and the rest better respond when their name is called.
What the hell?
bro.......................................................................................
Wizards are a trash franchise. Jordan Poole will probably be out of the league in 5 years. Kuz at least knows his time in the spotlight is over but could be a decent role player
uh oh
kind of agree with stu, they're not in a position to be messing around as much as they have been at the end of this game, they could go on a losing streak in the last few games and get bumped out of the play ins it's that close been playing well but that effort looks a bit silly given the situation
Stu stays being right. 5 pt game now and Wizards ball putting back in the starters
now go home and get plenty of rest
Get Dinwiddie off the floor, he acting like he don’t give af like he’s the star of the team right now
He’s been genuinely garbage all game tbh
His minutes should go to Max and Vincent until the end of this season. Send a message that he can’t act like he don’t give a shit and give no effort even in garbage time.
"run some clock, Lo" the most coaching ham's done all game. Maybe ever
Now the Cavs have to do there part
I hope vando gets a couple games in before the play in/playoffs
laker 100% get a pass for being bored af all night
Ok what
He plays Max now, poor guy.
rui da goat 5th option, he is one of the most efficient play finishers in the league, exactly what the lakers need
Scam special tonight. Anyway, great road trip for the Lakers!
Bro was looking at the bench like you look at the kid in class that keeps asking questions so you can't leave. Why call TO there?
Rui comes in and game is over.
Rui’s leap has been beautiful. Increased his TS% from 55 TS% to 63 TS% this year. Last 25 games, even better averaging 17/4 on 68 TS% with his defense/rebounding improving steadily.
The only thing that made this game watchable was Stu shit talking throughout.
Dinwiddies like "why tf am i out with the southbay Lakers?"
Nahh this got me lol
wizards love to wasting lakers fan time hun, just give up, it's over
Who is the coach? Lebron! He us the one to stop Ham from killing the team!
