    For real, lol. I do want Ja to play though because I want no excuses. Also as we've seen from our guys in some of the last games of the regular season, they can let down big time when the other team has their stars out. I think Memphis goes HARD at the Lakers this game being down one.

    I have a bad feeling about this game whether or not Ja plays. We have a bad habit of playing down to our competition. I see 3 quarters of no defense and us missing all our open 3s, only to make an amazing comeback in the fourth, just falling short.

    Ugh. No Ja means we probably take it for granted and suck. Maybe we've learned something from the let down last games of the regular season but I doubt it.

    Maybe all kinds of “random” things and ball bounces happen or Memphis gets hot as **** from deep and none of it is due to the mind reading proclamations of NO effort / heart / pride / hunger / mental toughness / etc / etc?

    If Bron only has one 40 left in him this post season, I'm OK with him unloading it on this f***ing clown.

    Hey Shannon, go ahead and slap him on Saturday

    No excusing that p*** poor showing by the Lakers, but credit to the Grizzlies. They played lights out. I think they win that game even if the Lakers had been decent.
