What everyone ignores is a key problem is Kuzma playing abysmally after signing extension. He’s been horrible. Even if he played average the Lakers have one more win. He’s so bad he’s borderline unplayable. I think people have given up hope so don’t even consider him.

Only way we win is a humongous game from LeBron. No more being passive, he has to attack all game long and play a ton of minutes too. If he thinks a 28 point outing is enough, he's got another thing coming. And what is with Kuzma getting playing time? Guy does absolutely nothing out there and still somehow "earned his minutes".

KCP playing? We can win this if KCP and Kuz can hit shots.

Let's see if 36 year old Bron can give us a 40pt TripDub.

I hope i'm wrong, but without AD i don't see us winning this. Lebron is clearly in decline. Hope i eat my words in three hours.

I don’t care if it’s Kuz or KCP or Wes or Dennis or even Caruso, 2 of these players if they get hot would surely help open things up and all of them are due, hopefully this is the night

Schroder might be talented, but his bball IQ is unbelievably low for a point guard.
