They’re going to try to win every game and hope for Utah to lose once.
That would give them the 1 seed and a 2nd rd matchup vs Denver/Dallas winner. |

I don't think anyone knows. Who knows if he has Covid or was around someone who got it?
This season is so random. 72 game season. Shortened turnaround for the Lakers. Random injuries due to the compacted schedule. A player hugs their wife they could in effect be suspended 7 games or so due to Covid. |

He clearly has COVID by the length of time he’s been out. |

Predict what will happen:
A) Drummond gets early foul trouble
B) Vogel subs Trez & Keef and Suns go on a run in the 2nd quarter
C) Some Suns big man gets a career night
D) All of the Above _________________ |

Pretty much...it’s better for the Suns to shoot for the 1 seed. They won’t out tank the Clippers or Nuggets for 3/4 spots. |

Okay, Luka hit somebody on the balls "aggressively" so he's ejected for rest of the game. As a result of that ejection, he's also suspended for one game. This went from whatever, to MUST WIN now. |

The ESPN article about this says that Luca is still one tech away from an automatic suspension. I guess a flagrant foul 2 does not count towards the suspension tech count. |

That's weird, I figured it's in the same category as a tech. |

considering how badly he has played lately he wasn't giving us much by playing banged up |

The lakers have to be hoping for a 1st round suns matchup. That would be an easy warmup round. |
