The lack of effort is very alarming

I seriously can't believe we let the Lakers score 76 points in the first half.
We play no defense.. At all.

Bridges didn't play, Warren got 1 shot off.

But we got plenty of Chandler (-13), Ariza (-14), Crawford (-13) and Anderson (-12).

Rather than go into detail about everything we’re doing wrong I’m just going to keep it simple: this sucks.

We gave up 76 points in the first half?! I'm glad I missed it.

Why is Igor waiting 8 minutes in the second to pull Anderson???

Why hasn't Bridges played yet?

It seems like the Lakers have been instructed to attack the basket on every possession. Smart. We haven't contested them there yet. This is gross.

I just got home recently but have been watching the game on DVR. Haven't read the thread yet, and I'm sure other shave said both of these things, but:

- The defense SUCKS.

- Why are the old guys playing so many minutes, but the youngs like Bridges, Melton, Bender, Okobo, etc. getting no time?

We can't accept getting blown out by this Lakers team. Denver and Golden State, I understand.

This defense is just pathetic. Ryan Anderson needs to have his ass glued to the bench.

If you can't defend, you're never going to play with any consistency in this league.

Melton and Okobo are inactive. Bender sucks. No clue on Bridges. He should be playing.

Lakers are going to break 100 in the 3rd quarter because our defense sucks

You'd have a pretty good chance if you know how to sprint in a straight line.

Our PG rotation is organizational negligence.

Same could be said for about 70% of the roster.
