I mean it's the same stuff every night. I actually thought Murray had some good moments in that half but he's so bad defensively it doesn't really matter.
The defensive issues are absolutely due to him being out of shape. He's literally too tired to close out.

6 points on 7 FGA for the bench.

The defensive issues are absolutely due to him being out of shape. He's literally too tired to close out. It’s not fatigue. His quickness is gone. Especially his lateral quickness. Also lacks foot speed. It may just be that Murray has aged rapidly.

6 points on 7 FGA for the bench. I know what your answer is going to be but is PJ Hall actually worse than Saric/Zeke/DJ? Can he do anything at an NBA level?

Hands on his knees constantly.

He can shoot and he has reasonably good ball skills but he's a foul machine on defense and he gets pushed around a bit by bigger dudes. Not to the same degree as Zeke, but it's been an issue in his limited minutes so far. They can try him but I would assume he'd foul himself off the floor.

I mean at this point Malone has to just try every card he has in the deck. Saric and Zeke cannot be playing minutes for this team. They are both awful. DJ can at least rebound a bit.

Jokic is +6. He sat for 4 minutes.
Can Malone coach if Jokic is not on the floor. 172 scoring for the Lakers bench
Murray is slower than my grandmother

Once he returns we need to have one of him or Joker on the court at all times. Everyone on the court instantly becomes softer and dumber without them.

No clue but I hope he's ready to be the permanent backup C.

Jamal couldn’t close an umbrella let alone contest a shot. He’s cooked and it’s 4 on 5 out there with him on the floor.
Body language says it all
