    Time to lock in

  2. Win or lose, I really need to see a good game from DLo today. You can’t play like a borderline superstar all season and then disappear right when we need you the most.

    Herb Jones would probably be on one of our backcourt, the other left should step up but honestly this game scream Lebron.

    I hope Reaves and whoever we put on CJ could do a good job on CJ and make me double thinks, have some mistakes.

    AD should/would/will always be crucial and integral to our schemes, so I don’t think I should have to take about him.

    I hope Gabe or Spenc can be helpful and maybe Hayes can do us a solid by helping us not bleeding in our non-AD minutes.

    I have a feeling the step-up guy is gonna be Rui.

    The Lakers are going to go at CJ 45 times in a row lol he’s gonna be in almost every action we run whenever he’s on the floor.

    Need a 33 and 15 game from AD. He needs to own the orbit around the rim and get those put-backs!!!

    Lebron needs to freight train James them every time we need a bucket to stop the bleeding!

    DLo needs to nap in the freezer until game time because we need ICE IN HIS VEINS!

    AR15 needs to empty the clip and be HIM once more!!!

    Everyone else needs to bring intensity and energy! DIVE FOR THISE LOOSE BALLS! CLAW FOR THAT INCH WITH YOUR FINGERNAILS!!!!

    LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LAKESHOW!

    If the league doesn’t get involved the Lakers don’t make the playoffs.
