IBTL

Wall is questionable with an Achilles injury.

Damn that sucks. I'd much prefer Wall sit vs the Suns since that's a loss anyway.

Achilles injury? I blame the messenger. This is all JRo's fault.

Does this mean we have to watch Garret Temple do a poor point guard impersonation for 30 plus minutes? Geebus, I'd rather try Otto at the point. They look enough alike...

Who are they starting at PG, Jordan Clarkson? Beal should be able to do some ballhandling against the rookie

These are the games we've been uncharacteristically winning this season. Not sure how the team will play without John seeing as how, throughout about 80% of every game, he IS our offense....but it's the Lakers. C'mon. They aren't even trying anymore.

How Miller got his groove back?

Would be nice, though I have a feeling that it'll be more likely that Lin will find his.

Good thing that we have so much depth at PG Ernie.

Nick Young is out, as long as NENE and Gortat show up half awake we should be ok. But, this is the exact reason why we need another PG on the team ! Paging Stckton, Curry, Frazier, Cotton ! ! !

Paging Nate Robinson to the white courtesy phone. Nate Robinson, you have a call at the courtesy phone.

This is the game Otto, Webster and Rasual get it going.

I expect Wall will play. Help them get a big lead and then head to the bench early. He just won't drive much and instead dish out his dimes.

Paul will take the night off. They will make him inactive and make Gooden active.

I even think we could see a nice scoring game from Beal and Kevin. Maybe some Blair if we let Nene rest.

Actually looking forward to the game. Hopefully its a fun on.

No Wall = Loss
With Wall = .667 percent chance of winning

I was joking (a little) but when's the last time we saw this team play without Wall? We all remember 2012. Without Pierce and Wall? Who knows what could happen. Obviously I don't expect them to lose, but it will be so much more difficult without Wall.

Is Andre Miller physically capable of playing more than 20 minutes?

Ahh. Gotcha. FTR. I was half messing with you/joking as well.

First, I expect Wall to play. He isn't going to let his streak end. He is will kick it back a gear.

Second, that what makes it more exciting. We get to see other players step up. Again, given I expect Wall to play. But even if he doesn't. Temple would start and he can run the offense find for that they need against the Lakers. That might actually even make them focus more as other players will try to step up.

Really looking forward to this.

This is a win win if you ask me, if we win, we win. If we lose, it should be apparent to the staff that Andre Miller isn't even adequate enough to take on the scum **** team that is the lakers. I'm tired of watching him get destroyed on D :/

I know it doesn't make sense, but if Pierce is out, I'm fully expecting Webster first start of the season.

just watched some of that TOR game and if this is the direction the league is going, there is going to have to be a rule change.

If off, so many pump fakes where the defender played well and the offensive player still got the game.

and if not that, its a 3 ball.

My eyes are literally bleeding right now. Its HOU ball. Its not fun to watch.

Pierce is officially out. Wall gametime decision.

Right. He was out when I said he was out. LOL

If the big toe is hurting, they weren't playing Paul against the LAL. They already showed they would rest him when they felt they could get away with it.

And like I said. Wall will play..
