Since hiring Doc Rivers, the Bucks have now lost to the Blazers, Jazz, Grizzlies and Wizards. They’ve lost to the Lakers without LeBron James twice.
Yes, there have been injuries. Yes, it’s hard to integrate a new coach mid-season. Those are still games you should really win. – 9:23 PM

It appears to be mission accomplished here in TOR. The Lakers got to pull their main rotation players with more than half the 4th Q to go. LeBron, AD, Reaves and Rui all played 29 mins or fewer. D-Lo logged 33 mins. Trip ends on the second night of a b2b tomorrow in WAS. – 9:11 PM

Before the game, Ham was asked about balancing the Lakers’ play-in push with rest for their stars. He said, to paraphrase, if they take care of their business they can rest late in games.
They’re on a 37-16 run over the last 9 mins, lead by 29 & shouldn’t need LBJ/AD in the 4th. – 9:08 PM
