I fully expect us to rest the whole rotation except for Mann and Norm.
We'll probably start with Bones, Mann, Coffey, Tucker, Plumlee with Theis, Norm, Boston off the bench

Free Game For The Suns

Clippers are tanking this game. After blowing 30 points of their 37-point lead when they should have grown it to 40, they have to. For the good of basketball, they must lose this one.

Besides, no matter what they do, their playoff match is set. Clippers-Mavericks is inevitable.

Disappointed to, seemingly, have this as a scheduled loss but hopefully BJ goes off

G League night at Crypto! I hope Jordan Miller gets a look. Time for BBJ and Kobe to show something.

Clips sitting key guys tonight is strategic. They need 1 win to lock down home court. However, this game completely impacts the Lakers. Lakers hold the tiebreaker vs the Suns, but not the Kings. Suns lose tonight and Lakers still better chance to move to #8. Suns win tonight keeps Lakers firmly planted in 9. Warriors hold tie breaker over Lakers, so Lakers could be in 10 before their next game. With Suns win tonight, they have more Division wins, so they take Lakers in a multiple team tie.

Smart move. Helping LAL is never the right choice. It's crazy the entire pacific division other than LAC is in the playin.

Yeah I really don't think Clips are doing this to spur the Lakers.

Bones with an impressive start.

Boston with nice energy.

I’m stunned Brown is getting minutes.
