AD is so soft. A concussion from that incidental Jokic contact? I mean, hopefully it's just a release from the Pelicans since they've already lost the game. But I wouldn't put it past AD to be hurt from that.

You can’t control a concussion 8-)

Or does it automatically mean Davis can't come back in?

Obviously, Jokic made a basketball move, but the hit to his forehead was a hard hit. The league is right to take concussions very seriously.

I think they should have gone after Rudy Gay or Milsap

They need another scorer or some shooters

Lonzo ball such a bad bad player. Don't know what the Lakers were thinking picking him, especially after his first try out sucked and they asked for more tests. They clearly knew he was not good enough for the NBA back then

Nurkic has been a disappointment this season after the hype last season after being traded to the blazers.

Agreed, he was insane last year and really made the Blazers a pretty good team until he got hurt right before the playoffs.

This year he doesn't seem to be the same player, worse on both ends and really not seeming to fit in with the Blazers on offense. He's really the key to that team, maybe they'll figure it out because that roster is talented enough to make it to the 2nd round at least.

The Nuggets offense has been pretty bipolar this season, looks like they can't score at all in one game and look like the warriors in the next.

Haterz gonna hate. Lonzo is filling up the box score on a nightly basis, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, there’s more to basketball than just scoring.

Ball has been a culture changing presence for the Lakers, just being on the court makes his teammates better, and it’s showing in the Lakers record this year.
