The Lakers have the type of random scrubs that love to go off on the Nets...

This is the one we all have circled on our calendars....Playing against the champs on their own court.

Don't have as much confidence in this one without KD, although I know Lakers have no AD.

They're still one of the best defensive teams in the league, and they have a bunch guys that can really kill us given our defense. DeAndre is gonna have to step up.

30 games into the season is a good marker of how things are going. The one thing I see around the league is that everything is a MESS. We've played the most starting lineups in the league - we've felt like a rollercoaster all year long - yet we're like the 4th stablest team in the league. That's ridiculous. Teams that are pretty damn proven like the Celtics, Heat, Raptors, Nuggets (Mavs?) are a disaster. Even the Bucks aren't looking great.

It's awesome that we're crushing teams but I'm just gonna be more patient with the team + coaching staff. I expect things to be wild until after the All Star break.

Were not winning this game without KD... in fact, i dont think we would have won with him. with AD out, this is a Lebron statement game.

Hopefully with KD out that takes some wind out of his sail and harden has carry over from the suns game and Kyrie from the kings game. we will need both to play their best to have a shot tonight

Pack the paint and dare th Lakers to beat us from the 3pt line. The Lakers are good defensively and have people that can guard Harden & Kyrie, so gonna need the role players to step up offensively.

I have confidence given the last stretch of games. Should be close game heading into the 4th Q

Paint defense needs to be strong for this one or else we'll get abused by the likes of Harrell. We're on a good run and team morale is high after last couple wins, so I'm not ready to call this as a W for Lakers.

There is no way KD would let LeBron beast on this team without a response. Hell no.

I don't see why we can't win this game.

I don't think the Lakers are very dangerous at all, without AD.

On any given night, anything can happen and they aren't bad with no AD, but Idk, I can see a win here.

I'm ready to riot. How in the F Harden didn't get a start. If anything hes the best guard in both conferences. My head hurts. No dis to Kyrie and Beal but they can't even hold his towel when it comes to be on the court and win games.

if we win tonight while you eating ice cream and cookies, send me your PayPal. I'll send you some cash for the next month upfront. I'll force you to eat it every game :lol:
