    Rotation should be:

    CP3 - Weber
    Gordon - Green
    Ariza - Tucker
    Anderson
    Capela - Nene - Black

    Lakers are better than their 11-25 record. They play the Warriors & Rockets tough. :D

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Magic were once 8-4. They're now 12-26 (4-22); 1-9 in their last 10. Rockets should win (even if it's not easy).

    Hard to predict a win at this point with how they're playing and no Harden, but we'll see. Need Chris Paul to go off.

    I think cp3 is talented enough to beat the magic as the lone star. The magic aren’t world beaters but they shouldn’t be taken lightly.

    I imagine cp3 making it his mission this game to “hold the fort down for James”.

    Calling it now, Ryan Anderson will have a 20+pt double double. Remember you heard it here first.

    EGO will need to make a big impact going forward. He is going to have to be more then a sixth man and become the third star

    Keep Gerald Green please, restructuce his contact, waive Bobby Buckets. Keep that man at all costs.

    he just needs to keep the boneheaded plays to minimum and hit the shots cp3 will create for him

    Who knows what to expect from this team. I really hope they try on defense, I miss the good ol' days of top five defensive efficiency.

    Harden faked injury so Green could get his guaranteed contract.
