    James needs to play some defense, he's getting burned left and right, that's just ugly

    Harden slows down the offense way too much. He stagnates it. He dribbles with no purpose.

    Which is weird because getting younger with guys like Ennis and MCW was supposed to help with that. But it didn't.

    Luc Mbah Moute would've absolute walled LeBron up from that distance as a penetration container. WAY stronger, smarter. longer and better than Ennis.

    Harden and his lame excuse for an offensive and defensive game thus far 1.5 games in is really concerning, the guy doesn't look like he has any interest in playing on either end of the floor suddenly so far this season

    The starters are slow or lacking energy. You seen it soon as harden, Ennis and tucker came back in. That’s not a good sign unless they are just digging it

    it’s been a while since I’ve seen a team as dangerous as this Lakers team in transition...they’re not running for threes, it’s right to the rim where we have very little resistance

    Don't get it, melo was playing well with the second unit why you put harden and Ennis back in, that was plain stupid

    They are uselss in the soam 3 offense so they look useless. James Ennis is basically a warm sack of meat on the court.

    Harden sucks! Trade him ASAP
    As long as he came in we lost the lead
