    I want nothing to do with the Lakers and the rigged refs in Round 2. Hope Clippers beat us tonight and Lakers fall to 4.

    If the playoffs started today wouldn't the Lakers and gsw face off?

    That's the best scenario for all the teams. Let them refs fight each other.

    If Ime didn't learn his lesson about leaving players in, during meaningless situations when Amen got hurt, he is not all that bright.

    I am hoping he plays the starters a little but then rests them.

    15-20min for the starters should be alright.

    Look at how hype Ime is about our defense. This is the first time I've seen him show any expression on the defensive end. Ime talking **** to the warriors while we lock them down. COTY

    im really torn on this game...

    since we clinched #2 we got nothing to play for and we should be resting guys for the post season...

    but on the flippity... i really want us to beat the livin snot outta Hard-on's team...

    i'd love to watch us go all out n shut him down like they did Curry...

    and shove his 'not good enough' square up his self centered narcissistic a**!

    lol! ;)

    I can't wait to watch Amen lockdown Harden or Kawhi. The offense is just gravy at this point.

    Oh i know you are correct... and thats the proper thought process...

    but the thought of snapping their winning streak and getting Hard-on all frustrated... jus makes me smile... lol

    Since Reed will probably be the starting pg tonight, we are guaranteed a Rockets win.

    I don't want Jalen and Tari getting more than 15 minutes. Adams should sit out too.

    Don't know why Green just doesn't take a game off lol.

    Hopefully he just shoots threes and barely tries to attack the rim. Don't need him doing acrobatic finishes at the rim tonight.

    ESPN lists the starting lineup sans Green as out.
