Laker are 6-4 in it's last 10 games.
The season series is tied at 1-1. |

One of Reaves or DLo needs to be on the court at all times until Bron comes back.
Scary as f*ck when it was Schroder by himself with Beasley
The three guard is fine... but never only Schroder. |

| This is such a massive game, although with how OKC is playing I don't think they are our main competition (I'm kind of assuming they make it into the playoffs/ play ins at least). I'll probably miss the game so hoping for the best. |

Well that's why Ham took Reeves out after about 6 minutes and kept DLO on I'm guessing. You can start them both just pull one early and you can get that rotation going |

| Shai has been playing out of his mind and leading OKC to victories lately. Their team is hot, and we need to watch out for Dort, who is a dirty player and will try to injure someone like Reaves, Schroder, or DLo. |

Do they play the Clippers again tonight first? Wonder how they approach that game, the one vs us is more important to them on paper I believe. But George being out might change things

Not really. It’s called staggering the lineups. When Reaves came out with 5+ minutes left in the first, he came back in with 2 minutes left to then play with the 2nd unit. People here have completely overblown that whole situation with the “BUT WHAT HAPPENS TO THE BENCH WITHOUT REAVES?!”
This isn’t Hockey you numb nuts. You don’t really EVER play a full 2nd unit lineup. At least, you shouldn’t. You stagger your starters in there to make sure things keep flowing with players that are working.

There are must-wins and must-must-wins. This is a must-must-win: At home against a play-in competitor.

Shai has been sitting back to backs, which means he will almost surely play.

Vandy will have him on lock down if he can stay out of foul trouble. |
