Damn, no Lonzo tonight? Oh well, I'm still going to use this anyways:

We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I guess the strategy tonight is to just allow them to get easy baskets in the paint all night long. Bold, but it just might work...for the Lakers.

Who knows...maybe Luc is our real MVP and we need him back.

But since you're there, do something to help them snap out of it, man! We're all counting on you!

Harden has not been 100% for quite some time. He normally blows by his defender going to the rim, but noticed he has a few shots blocked doing so in the past few games

Or to put a positive spin on it: Harden gets two weeks off!

grade 2 strain is using 3-4 weeks
