After the Charlotte loss you figure they are cognizant to stack as many wins as we can. They are probably aware that they have a daunting part of their schedule on the horizon.
I think Charlotte game wasn't in their plans.Lakers just got Luka for AD trade,JJ wasn't sure what to do,They were having a week off during the All Star weekend, nobody cared much about playing,and they had b2b in Portland. Pelicans game is different and they usually plan how to play vs Zion , Eve when Pimple was a coach
It's going to be a "load management during the game" contest .. Expect a close win or a bad close loss. I won't be mad , Lakers are down 2 starters and 1 bench player . The only fear I have is this POS Olynyk might hurt a Laker
But they have a weakish schedule until the end of the month Outside of OKC (5th) and Cavs (14th), they have some winnable ones.
Want: Mavs over Grizz Suns over Nuggets Neither are likely, but I want to get a little separation from 3, 4, 5. Only ½ a game up on Denver currently.
I didn’t even realize catching Boston was feasible. Still don’t know how likely it is, but if we did manage to make it to the Finals it would be nice to have HCA.
Dropped to 3rd. Tough sledding ahead. Austin isn't fully back yet. Luka has a tweaked back. Rui is out at least for the first three of these next five. Bron TBD. Even if he says he's good to go, I make him sit against Brooklyn and heavily consider sitting him against the Bucks. Should be able to beat Brooklyn with whoever we have. I punt the Bucks game. Decisions will have to be made about whether we're prioritizing the Sunday or Monday game, guessing it will be the Sunday game because that's a nationally televised one. But that's an early one, those are often tough for us. At least there's 3 easy ones here. Then the following week there's the other Nuggets/Bucks back to back
0-7 ...D-lo will score 40 shooting 10 3's And GSW will eliminate old injured LeBron and Chubby Balkan from play off Ohh, well.But I stay in holiday inn a few years ago
