Tell that to James Worthy, who said the same thing on Access just now.
Tell that to Coach Walton, who just said that in his post game conference.

Good luck with that... They'd get killed even worse.
The bench has the benefit of playing other benches.. Put them against starters, and you'll see an entirely different bench unit

How much worse can it get though?
We're already the most losing team in the association

Shift DLo to the bench. Start Lou.
That's the only rotation adjustment we need to make.

"I was expecting a little more fight...I was wrong." -Luke Walton
"It's frustrating. I was hopeful and thought we had learned from our past mistakes. The most frustrating part is that it happened again." - Luke Walton
"I agree. It's the FIGHT. It's not about technique, or fundamentals, or the shooting. I mean, it's a MINDSET." - Big Game James Worthy
You listening @LoveHateSelf
Luke already knows his players don't have it.
A trade should happen.

Start Clarkson over Russell
Have the Bench consist of (when healthy)
D'angelo
Lou
Ingram
Nance
Tariq
If we suck at defense might as well go all out

As THE starting point guard on the team and as THE floor leader, it all starts with the tone D'Angelo Russell sets for his teammates.
Unfortunately, Coach Walton is slowly beginning to realize that his young flashy Hollywood PG from Ohio State is all talk, very little walk.
Consequently, the rest of the team and players such as Randle, Clarkson, Ingram, Mozgov, etc are unable to follow Russell's lead because simply put, he doesn't have the fight in him to actually lead.
Period.

Don't need no changes to the rotation. Kids just need to keep playing with energy.

Even in post game interviews, D'Angelo shows no emotion...doesn't look mad, looks completely nonchalant. Even in post game interviews when him and his team just got embarrassed!!!

start Ingram at the point and move Dlo Sg move swaggy to the bench or have Ingram and Dlo switch positions to get them grow no point in having Ingram of the bench if we ain't wining

Imagine if Russell had started his first 36 games like Ingram has...
