U honestly think we can make up 3-4 games behind in loss column without tie breaker… in 19 games?

I have us finishing at the 9/10 seed and it looks like that’s a real possibility but a team should always play to win |

Nothing new on the injury report we're really in just a holding pattern until they announce whatever it is they're going to announce next week.

Now seems to be a great time to play them they aren't playing 200% Bucks like as one would expect, and when we are firing we are lava hot.
Let's Go Lakers! |

| Bucks are playing much better since the all star break and Lillard is starting to adjust to the Bucks team, let’s see if this team shows piss poor body language if Bucks have there way early on |

OK Warriors just beat the hell out of the Bucks.
I'm being upbeat and positive here, just go with it IG.  |

| This new starting 5 reminds me of those old suns that could score like crazy, but also could not stop anybody. |

| Aside from the 40 point outburst against the Clippers, Damian Lillard has been quite pedestrian this year. 24 points on 39% shooting in January. 21 points on 43% shooting in Feburary. |

It's a win-win for Ham. If we won, great job, Ham. If we lost, it's ok cuz Lebron was out.

So if Lebron's been holding the team back and Ham has been trying to play him as much as possible, does that mean Ham has been trying to lose? 
The plot chickens...

Both are to blamed here, Ham over riding LeBron is the reason why his body can’t handle it anymore especially this late in the season, LeBron is sitting out to send a message, he usually always plays when he’s dealing with ankle issues, he’s had it all season long |
