LeBron is at home resting and Anthony Davis is at home resting. Illness.

@BA_Turner

Luke Walton said both Tyson Chandler and Zubac had to get IVs today and JaVale McGee is “still out” recovering from flu-like symptoms.

I respect the effort that McGee put in to win us that game... but he should have been quarantined from the team the minute he showed symptoms.

(bleep). Without so many players, that's a L

Every time I've come to talk (bleep) in these game threads, the Lakers have taken the L. At this point, they just need to stop the bleeding because two more losses puts us out of the playoff picture.

I don't want to come off conspiratorial, but this is nothing new. It's the reason why I won't buy an NBA ticket until January. Because the playoffs have extended the season (into June if you make the finals) teams will rest players this time of year and it's contrived. I remember when you could buy an NBA ticket and rest assured that starters/stars would play. But then again, the finals were over by mid-may too. When the Lakers won the finals during the 1971-72 season, the finals were over on May 7th.

Well of course they're sick :::cough:::: :::cough::::
