Sounds like some of our resident posters around here. LOL! _________________ "The game is MORE than just one player. Without Luka, DFS would have been more than enough to replace him based on what we've seen," LakersFever714, the greatest casual of all time.
If we beat them on Tuesday, they will not want any part of us in the playoffs. _________________ On Lakersground, a concern troll is someone who is a fan of another team, but pretends to be a Lakers fan with "concerns".

I already think we're easily the team they want to face the least in the West with Luka just continuing to get closer to his usual self which many of the Thunder are probably still having nightmares about from last Season.
Good stuff! I’m still hoping OKC/Den/GSW beat each other up getting two of them eliminated on the other side of the playoff bracket tho!!! _________________ When reasonably possible, I expect the Lakers to go after a ship like it can’t be denied. I haven’t seen a completely committed effort by the GM for the last 2 off seasons nor the last 2 trade deadlines. What is going on?
[quote="jonnybravo"][quote="Dr. Laker"]If we beat them on Tuesday, they will not want any part of us in the playoffs.[/quote]Yep. We gotta come ready to play. We wrecked Utah at home by 19 and lost to them two days later by 14.[/quote]We beat OKC on Sunday, they will be coming out with ***FIRE*** on Tuesday since they do NOT want to lose THREE games in a row.
If we win on Tuesday, it will show that we are indeed a legitimate title-contending team
It appears that our best lineup is
Rui
DFS
LBJ
AR
Luka
~ this lineup has good to great shooters with everyone able to handle the ball. This will handle the Dubs to Nuggets to OKC to potentially the Cs.
with Vincent, Vando and Hayes providing great defense with energy. Maybe Hayes will play more against the Cs defending Porzingus.
If J.J. can figure out how to bring back Hayes rolling to the basket for buckets, things can get crazy good for us.
Glad that J.J. is trying to find minutes for Knecht because he can potentially win 1-2 games just on his shooting. Knecht is seeing/learning from AR to DFS how playing smart D with energy/efforts.

I lost $24k on one of my IRAs since the beginning of March up until now but this win put a smile back into my face. I'm hoping for a bigger smile on Tuesday.
It is a lot better than a BathtubToasterParty
One night on Reddit some team just got crushed and poor fan replies
"Toaster, meet bathtub"
-- first reply to that was from user BathtubToasterParty asking
"Are you free this Friday?"
