This game is going to take some serious prep from Luke Walton. I believe you have to play Joseph the most minutes and just hound Lillard all game. Keep him under 15 points and I think the Kings win. Barnes is a good matchup against Melo. I expect McCollum to have a 30-point night. I could see us going with a small lineup most of the night if POR gets going early. Bjelica could get squeezed for minutes if that’s the case.

Bogi out, we just can't catch a break this year.

Everybody has been blocking Buddy lately. NBA figure him out?

He’s an elite third option thrust into a first option role due to injuries. He’ll be fine.

I 100% agree... But I've noticed teams started defending Buddy differently after Thybulle put the clamps on him.

I'm so pissed of Buddy's shot selection!

Missing Bogi coupled with Barnes putting up 0 points after 3 quarters played a role.
