Phoenix are going to to want to win this one bad. Young team, home court, ready to prove themselves and eager to bury us 0-4. We better play some D and move the ball on the other side, while making our 3 pointers.

Deandre Ayton could eat us alive tonight unless Jonathan Williams has something to say about it.

We've lost by 9, 9, 1. If we don't win soon we may develop the wrong culture. Th Spurs game was encouraging, the team didn't give up. It showed we can build a strong second unit. Ariza (The Thief Of Baghdad) is going to show out tonight. Nice to see him getting paid $15,000,000.

I'll take the over. Pro Lakers crowd + young opponent with no all stars + Lukes comments = free throw parade


Sounds good


But do the Lakers prioritize flopping enough to get that many FT's? I am not confident they do. I cant remember the last time (or any time) where a Lakers team prioritized flopping as a strategy.


The Lakers had several preseason games where they were around 50 FTA.

We could only hope we get some damn calls.

Sure Luke was 100% correct on his rant on how the refs been destroying us but I’m concerned they could be even more hesistant on blowing the whistle to prove a point.

Just gotta play tough defense an hope they’ll be more balance on their calls this time

I have faith Javale’s length and athleticism should give Ayton some problems. Ayton ain’t no Lamarcus or Capella. Javale should be inspired tonight just like how we performed at the start of the season

I mean the report of him open to the joining the Clippers really confuses me. Not just because the clippers are a super trash franchise but the fact that Kawhi hates the warriors just like the rest of the world.

An it’s no secret he would have a much better chance taking down the Warriors teaming up With Lebron instead of teaming up with Tobias Harris lol

Must win or go home. If we can't win this game, then I'm not sure what game we can win. Let's go, purple and gold!!!

He’s earned it more than KCP ever has in his entire career.

But again, we have a Byron Scott 2.0 as a coach. Not only we will likely win this game because the Suns suck, but he’s gonna use this win as an excuse to continue to start KCP.

Luke you did it! You actually did something so obviously logical for the first time in your career!

Praise be!

Good to see Luke making a change at the SG spot, now KCP can re-gain his focus.
