Will be nice to have AD play 10-15M in the Spurs game to prepare himself against the physical Celtics front court |

Davis will be on a 20-24 minute restriction, easing back from an injury that had some medical personnel projecting an 8-10 week recovery timeframe.

Looking forward to seeing AD and Rui playing together for a few minutes vs the Spurs.
On paper this game looks like a win but we can't take the Spurs lightly. We'll have to play better perimeter defense than we have been playing.
I'm sure the Spurs will bring their "A game," just like every other team that the Lakers face.
Getting AD, Rui, Reaves and LW4 back asap should give the team a big boost on both ends of the floor. |

The Spurs will not be tanking this particular game.
Lakers better show up as if they are playing a Denver or Memphis. The margin of error and losses gets tighter and tighter. They really can’t afford this to be an L.
It’s almost go time where they need to rip off 8 of 10, 5 of 6 etc. if they want to be in the top 10. _________________ 2 star model (Lebron/AD) in 2023-24 = no playoffs, again. |

Lakers could win this one with their B-unit. Rest Lebron and save him for the road games. _________________ "The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." — Gandhi |

I love your optimism.
Lakers B team is basically on par with the Spurs rag tag group of tankers. Yes, the Lakers won in San Antonio without Lebron but that was with Reaves, Walker IV and full go (not minutes restriction) AD. _________________ 2 star model (Lebron/AD) in 2023-24 = no playoffs, again. |

We cant afford to lose 2 in a row at this point in the season. LeBron's 3-point shot was dialed in last night. Hopefully he suits up. |

Can’t beat the Spurs with AD playing 20 minutes and Rui giving us a spark? |

We’ve beat better teams without LeBron so of course we can. This one is going to really hurt if we lose though. |

It will but we have 30+ games with AD and LeBron to pile up a lot of wins so we’ll see what happens |

Because we play all the good teams well, I could see us choking this game.
But we need it, that's for sure. |
