No Anthony Davis which makes this game easier but these are the champs so it will still be a really tough game. If we are competitive and play hard that will be a positive sign. A win of course would be huge.

Lakers coming off a loss, and the prior 4 games to that were all OT wins. If we can play with energy we have a good chance to make this a game.

We gotta win the turnover battle and take good shots ... they have solid defense and rebound well, so not a lot of second chances. LA is not the greatest 3-pt shooting team, but they do get to the line. It'll be a tough game for us even with A.Davis out of the lineup.

Wes Matthews is a Wolves killer from long range :o ... hope he don't play much. Rubio gotta keep up with Schroeder :-?

Bottom-line: Be active and take care of the ball. I can see JV and MCD being the difference in this matchup, defensively. Any game between KAT and ANT will be tested/contested.

For me the question is whether or not we put the ball in KAT’s hands. If we do our offense will flow. If not, we will fail to keep up and be down 20+ by halftime. Keep away from KAT and high number of shots by Rubio are formulas for disaster.

With AD out, expect Gasol to explode for his best game of the season against us..

The 5 guys on the court right now are a combined 0/10.
