Should be a interesting game. I want a beat down, though. It’s time to get in rhythm and show consistency throughout the game, which means guys other than Lebron and AD need to step up.

Also, would like to see Kuz start instead of Danny. Match him up with BI. I’m sure they would bring it.

Im really curious as how if Markieff plays, placing Kuzma at a smaller spot will positively affect the dynamics of play like so many people are saying.

It’s on, Kuz! Bragging rights are at stake, and so much more. Ingram will put up 35, Lonzo 25. The first 40 point game of the year would sit just right tonight. I’m calling it!

This is far from an easy game. They’re a formidable opponent.

With Lonzo’s passing and Zion being the receiver, we’d better not turn it over at all tonight. Yeah, right. LBJ has to watch out for Ingram’s long arms, and Lonzo’s hands are extremely quick on defense. Hart and Holiday are good defenders. I fear a large amount of fade-away capitulation threes tonight.

How to make Zion less a factor? Attack the rim, make him play tiring defense, get him off the floor via blocking fouls. If he manages to play big minutes, wear him down by posting him up all night; every possession.

LEts keep it real. BI will play like ass and get lit up. Zo can't shoot. HArt won't defend and will make stupid fouls. Lakers win

This seems like a classic gotcha game...

Not a must win but it would be great if they prevail but I cringe at the thought of Zion landing on Davis leg.

My DVR on Hulu is recording the end of the Bucks game.... everything I see shows the game starting at 7pm PST. I guess that it's the typical 7:30 game since it hasn't started.

Hey.... has it been 6 weeks! Danny Green with a good game developing.

I legit worry about Zion's health... He actually looks thicker now and he already looks gassed a few min into the first quarter.

Love the hot start... but based on our recent past how long before we give it back?

We're hitting jumpers but we're not playing smart against this team. They have no interior defenders and we're settling for too many long jumpers. Pound these guys in the paint.

Davis has 2 horrible air balls... both largely uncontested. Is he OK?

Morris still needs some lessons on the defensive end...
