Matty, you’re full of it. The Pels were overmatched today.

What have they done the four games before today? This team has heart and talent. Just a let down after the mental roller coaster they have been on recently. Willie and the gang will be ready come Tuesday.

Denver’s the 2 seed. we suck against the lakers anyway. At this point, rest up and let the try hard lakers have the win Tuesday and pray we get the Kings in the 8 seed game. Would love to snag the 8 seed and play OKC rather than Wolves or Nuggets

It’s real difficult for me to think the Lakers will sit AD and then have to face an elimination game, likely against the Warriors, to avoid Denver. The Lakers consider themselves a Finals contender, so they realize they likely are going to get Denver at some point to get where they want to be. Unlike us, they aren’t going to be happy with just winning a series or being really competitive in one.

Agree. I would be shocked if we don’t get a great effort. Not to excuse the shite show we put out today, but Tuesday will be different.

Exactly then they should avoid Denver. The Nuggets absolutely own them. The nuggets would prefer lakers over us.

4-13, with 12 points and God knows how many turnovers. He laid more eggs than my yard hens. Pelican fans don't get it. HE IS NOT GOOD! Zion picks up garbage points, is fat , out of shape, and injury prone. The franchise needs to trade him, and hopefully some other team takes the bait. They have no chance in the playoffs. Zero. You clowns are reaching

Just shut up. We sucked but that doesn’t mean Zion is this horrible player. You’re the clown.

Big (no fat puns) players make plays in big games. LeBron is double their age, and toyed with that entire roster. Today was Zion's party, and he completely crapped the bed, along with the entire roster. That was a total embarrassing performance. The Lakers aren't good either. I've been watching the NBA for 45 years.

IF...Lakers want to tank to avoid Nuggets in 1st round, I doubt they would be dumb enough to just "sit" AD due to injury, and then bring him back for next game vs GS/Kings winner. Just too obvious. So, they'd probably start him even though he's injured (g)...and then his back would tighten up early in the game...& he'd have to sit...then, they can say they tried to play him and hopefully he'll he be fully recovered for home game vs GS/Kings winner.

Otherwise...if they actually want to tank...AND play AD...he'll have to play like crap the entire game & I just can't see AD doing that.

BTW...folks seem to say it's gonna be GS for sure...but last line I saw...GS was -2 vs Kings. I can't see Lakers losing to either team...playing at LA...if it got down to that...& I doubt LeBron thinks they could lose that game either. Lakers/Pels should be an interesting game...for sure.

This. The NBA would rather the those two for ratings.
