JJ Redick's intense coaching style was evident after the Los Angeles Lakers' 131-114 defeat to the Memphis Grizzlies. He praised LeBron James for his impressive 39-point performance but expressed frustration over the team's overall effort, especially in the absence of key players Anthony Davis and Rui Hachimura.
The Lakers' defense struggled significantly without Davis, who is having a standout season. Redick specifically called out D'Angelo Russell for his poor performance, leading to his benching. The team has now lost four of their last five games and sits at .500.
