On Sunday night, the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Houston Rockets (in Texas) by a score of 119-115.
The Lakers made a comeback, but the Rockets were still able to hold on and avoid blowing their 22-point lead.
Many fans were upset with head coach JJ Redick for the loss.
@smh24yt__: “JJ Redick is the worst sidelines out of bounds play coach in clutch time I’ve ever seen in NBA history, bro runs the absolute worst sets 😭😭😭”
@TyHollins0: “Max Christie being the inbound man in a clutch situation is not JJ Redick’s finest moment”
@The_Scorelord: “JJ Redick lost us this game.”
@TheRealD_C: “JJ Redick out here again with this centerless lineup when he has AD, Christian Koloko, and now Jaxson Hayes available. I really don’t get what there is to like about this strategy. They defend Sengun with Rui (why?), double, then give up an offensive rebound.
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.”
@24Dparks: “Redick small ball strikes again. Maybe Koloko should actually play”
@deadboylyfee: “We coulda won this game if Redick played DFS more than 6 minutes in the first half and didn’t put out that awful lineup to start the 4th smh”
@bryantintown: “Redick lost us this game”
