This one will be though.

@Utah. THT revenge game since he is getting all the playing time.

We should still win as long as focus and energy is there, but it will be tough if Markkanen and THT are in…

I dont think we need to worry about the energy. We arent like the Timberwolves that have a terrible habit of playing down to the level of their competition and our team is peaking right now.

I worry about the Laker energy. They have a tendency to give up big quarters and lose games they have no reason to lose.

This current run they have improved but they still have their lapses and loss of focus on both ends. Just can’t happen this final four games.

Lakers are on a mission to get that 6 seed and a couple days rest during the play-in. It is within their grasp. This is a veteran team that understands the importance of getting it.

I want to see the Lakers take care of business with Utah in a cold blooded professional way. Come out and smother them on defense and be efficient on offense. No end of quarter lapses. Be up by 20 at the half. Be up by 25 at the end of the third and able to rest the starters for the clips game.

No time for nonsense. Win the game! The bigger the better. With a little luck, they can be solidly in that 6th seed by the final game and can rest the starters even more. That should be the goal.

Ever since AD has said, “this road trip is our revenge trip”, the Lakers have played with great focus and energy to come out on top.

I except this game to be the same, and throw a beatdown on the tanking Jazz team. They want to destroy this team after losing to them twice earlier in the season.

Jeez that sucks. And wow I didn’t realize how good he has been for them.

Jazz already found their Gobert replacement for 10x cheaper.

Same salary, anybody here would trade Gobert for Markannen straight up?

Oh easily. Markannen is super nice. Gobert can be exploited and played out of the lineup in the playoffs.

THT revenge game followed by a RW revenge game.

I like our chances against both. WB will hopefully try to take over every possession he is playing on Wednesday.


STAY SELFISH, LAKERS!!!

Plus four picks. No idea what Minnesota was thinking.

So early question for Wed....does AD sit out the second of a back to back? I hoped we learned our lesson in Houston a couple of weeks ago. I assume he is off restrictions....that game still pisses me off. It is crazy what one game is doing in these standings right now.

If he sits out the biggest game of our season for no reason it would be an unthinkable mistake.

I'm guessing they'll either slide over Olynyk or just start Azubuike.
