LeBron said he will NOT play tomorrow night in Utah on the second night of the back-to-back.

at least this clears up the confusion by some who dont think Bron dictates when he plays or not.

Let’s hope this scheduled rest day doesn’t bite the Lakers in the butt.

Taking any opponent for granted is risky. They are starting to gain some momentum in the W/L column. It is this type of attitude that could cost them in the seeding. Not exactly like they have any room to play around in the standings. They are only 2.5 ahead of this very same Jazz team.

Show up, be professional, and leave with a win. Sounds simple enough, now do it!

The week off just adds to the frustration. And don’t get me started on the foolishness of playing in an exhibition game mid season.

Love your confidence. I do not see the Lakers “ owning” anyone. Warriors are starting to work out the issues. Don’t be surprised to see them work themselves back into the play-in relevance. Hopefully not at the Lakers expense.

That post ASG meeting could be for 10th spot in the standings. Only 27 games left on the schedule. Going to be interesting to see if the Lakers can show any kind of consistency and be a true threat. Or just another old team that underperforms as an era ends. Similar comments can be made about GS.

Up to them to prove which is true.

I feel like this is one of the most important games of the season. If the Lakers win it, they are going to the break with tremendous momentum, and I think it will give them confidence that they can keep winning and get the 6th seed.

If they lose, it will be more like the usual 2 steps forward 1 step back, which should be good enough to get a play-in spot at best.

Seriously? Why not rest him the front end of a back-to-back? We did NOT need him to beat Detroit!!

How are we a 6 pt dog against Utah without Bron?
I guess they know the Lakers record on back-to-back but the Lakers did good against New Orleans on the last back-to-back.

Without AD and Bron, it's at least 10 pt dog I think.

Neither one should be resting, we need WWWWWWWW’s. they have a week to rest! What’s more important team wins or playing in a stupid ASG?!?!
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
If Ham had a half of brain he’d play them & limit their minutes.

Wins are at a premium & when best to get one a game before ASG break!
This is so RIDICULOUS & PRIMA-DONNA LIKE for so called grown men & a yes man coach, GM & soft ownerships! 🤯🤯🤯😡😡😡😡😡

Good job Allie!

Big deal alert. @RealAClifton will make history by becoming the first woman to be on the call of a Lakers game in team history. She’ll be filling in for Stu Lantz as the color analyst on @SpectrumSN.

Darvin Ham says Taurean Prince will start for LeBron James tonight in Utah. Tonight was “an excused absence” for James to work on the ankle injury heading into to the break.
