    The game he should have rested was Utah. There was no chance we would win that one. It would have given him a nice break. I don’t mind him missing last night. We should have won that game. We had about 4 chances to do so.

    But I agree Vogel should be thinking more like Pop regarding Lebron’s minutes and sitting games out.

    Oh that’s a complaint from other teams and a hefty fine. Because .... wait for it .... it’s the Lakers.

    He said he was going to turn it up 2 years ago and didn't make the playoffs. All time greats say things even if they can no longer will their team on their own.

    It would be silly to think Lebron can do this without AD with how the playoffs teams get stacked up. You need a second star minimum, so hopefully AD finds health. Not looking super positive though.

    He was hurt then so I'd give him a pass. Let's see if father time has caught up.

    I actually loved the Lakers went with Schroeder to close the game against Indiana. Schroeder is a hard player to guard if he can go 1v1 and LeBron has enough gravity to make it easy for him

    You know, it seems like the Warriors have better pieces than they do. I mean, Looney, Curry, Green, Oubre, Wiggins, Wiseman, and Bazemore are all fairly well known players. I was figuring that we would be lucky to beat them today. We have not been playing well and they should have been plenty motivated but instead of making up for our last blowout beat down of them in the last game, all they did was let us beat them worse. It surprised me but made me happy. It was nice to see KCP and THT both have good games and even nicer to see how Harrell dominated inside. He was kind of amazing. He and Kuz were playing really great together.

    I mean, Nico is a 6-2 dude, he's not a small human by any means. But he looked like a child running into a brick wall. Bron did not even flinch.

    How about Bron demonstrating my forever question on why it’s not also charging with a defender in position and just brutally backing him all the way down to the circle from almost the 3 point line. :D
