I'm pretty surprised early betting line has Memphis favored by 1.5. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.

AD and Bron stay involved. Feed AR but don't overwork him. Dlo calm down and play your game. Involve Rui. Please give Mo some burn. WE GOT DIS!! _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I want Bron to play as Kobe did in the 2012 regular season when we bought in Ramon Sessions. Part of the reason we lost to OKC that year is we reverted back to Kobe iso-ball which was never going to be enough to beat OKC especially since that was the first year Durant had surpassed Kobe as a player. You can say Sessions shrank but Kobe relegated Ramon to spot up shooting and never empowered him in the playoffs. What Lebron did in Game 1 was perfect. He didnt dominate the ball and even made a catch and shoot three off a D'Lo pass. Empower those young guys and choose your moments to take over
Memphis plays better w/o Ja. I would want them with Ja and a banged up Ja is even better!
I dont think so and thats certainly not the case this year as it takes away 2 major weapons for the Grizz. Transition dynamo and a credible perimeter threat who can score off the bounce in a half court setting. But thats a healthy Ja. A banged up Ja might be beneficial to the Lakers as the Lakers already know what they are going to do to defend him
Lakers don't need to resort to hacking Ja's injured hand. That's their style. The Lakers are the better team and can win straight up. Game 2 is crucial to ending any hope in their minds of winning the series.

Ramon Sessions became a certified agent and started an independently owned firm, On Time Agency (OTA). I wonder how the agency is faring. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

What the percentage chance that the nuts on the Grizz retaliate to the Morant injury now that the some idiots are crying that AD “sliding” to get the charge was a weak play?

There was nothing weak about the play. It was a good defensive play. AD moved outside the restricted area, established position and took the charge. The way Ja plays it was just a matter of time before he got hurt. If any Grizzlies player retaliates he should be given a flagrant 2 and a game suspension. Go to widescreen to watch. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

AD was there before Ja took off, I don’t know how that was “sliding”
Don’t we have TT on the bench? Heard he is pretty tough
Agreed, I think the only way we get far in the playoffs is to finish teams off quickly to maximize time off between series. We’re just not built for multiple seven game series.
