Jaden Hardy

He had a rough turnover.

Jaden Hardy... had a nonsensical foul plus missed the free throw.

And then Cameron Carr was just kind of out there.

I mean, it's wild seeing Carr and Hardy playing one minute and they were both minus nine.

Takeaway number two is the end of the game was a disaster.

And the only reason I bring this up is because we've discussed since the start of camp and we started to see what this group looked like in the preseason, how problematic the third string has been and how, in particular, Bronny and Jaden Hardy as lead ball handlers and decision makers have been harmful up to this point in the season and just seeing how quickly they blew that lead it was a minute 41 Luca checks out at 228 they check the guys back in at with 47 seconds left in the game or 48 somewhere around there it was barely a minute and a half that they blow 16 point lead becomes a five point lead.

And then they have to put the starters back in.

Yeah, I mean, there's not a lot of, like, crazy names.

You know, Jaden Hardy.

Now, Brandon Williams was somebody that a lot of people liked, but obviously he's signed now.

I mean, it's going to take a little bit of work to figure that spot out.

Finally, he made his NBA debut.

Unfortunately, it was alongside Bronny and Jaden Hardy, and Carr's debut was like that Simpsons gif where the guy...

The grandpa walks into the bar, puts his hat back on, and walks out of the bar.

But this whole thing with Grimes, it needs to improve.

And the Lakers are going to have to find some way to make this thing improve.

They unfortunately sort of let the foot off of the gas pedal.

And in the last, literally the last minute 40, when J.J. Redick finally decided to wave the white flag because the Raptors had waved the white flag about yesterday, a minute and a half, two minutes earlier, he brought in Cam Carr, Bronny James, who else? Jaden Hardy.

Yeah, that unit completely wet the bed.

Kept turning the ball over.

You know, it speaks for itself.

Bronny and Vando in there, Jaden Hardy in there.

I feel sorry for Cameron Carr.

He didn't even get to touch the ball.

JJ killed the game.

Again, the Lakers thought they had it out of reach, thought that Toronto was going to wave the white flag.

They put out there Jaden Hardy, Bronny James, Jared Vanderbilt, and Cameron Carr with the 143 left in the game, and immediately the lead disappeared and almost got back to a tie game almost.

In fact, they had a chance to get to it in a single basket, but...

Toronto's saying, yeah, you got this.

But J.J. Redick, in his infinite wisdom, or maybe like the rough, depending on how you want to go ahead and phrase it in the comments, put in Jaden Hardy, Jared Vanderbilt, Bronny James, and unfortunately tied into this was Cameron Carr, who got his first NBA action.

I don't even know if you want to call it action because it was a minute where he didn't get to do anything.

Didn't make mistakes.

In basketball, sometimes you make the right play, even if it's 90% right but 100% wrong in terms of who you swing the ball to.

I think there was a play, I don't know if I'm correct here, but there was a play where Grimes caught it on the wing, and I think it was Jaden Hardy in the corner.

It's like, yes, you can swing that, but I want to see you shoot that.

You're half open, Jaden Hardy.

But also never pass Jaden Hardy.

because he's not passing it back.

But Jaden Hardy's in there to score.

I think Hardy might set a record for fewest passes.
