the effort isn't up to par...

you know... multiple times he's standing still as guys drive to the basket or score right next to him.... no effort on some plays really...


If you notice the Lakers go on bad stretches right when he's doing that..its like it zaps the energy out of the team.....you start seeing turnovers.….

the line up with Ingram at the 2....Lonzo…...Lebron ..Kuzma and McGee is a cold line up.... we need a big man that can defend because McGee is still basically a 3rd string center...if you're relying on him to anchor your defense you've got problems....

small ball with Lebron is gonna work because he's not putting up any real defensive presence south of the free throw line....

not a good look …..

but a fixable problem..
