I don't like these early starts on back to backs. Players should have at least 24 hours between games. I knew it's only 1 hour off, but still.

Wizards are bad at defense and they are as dysfunctional as it gets, however they still have Wall and Beal so it will be a tough game.

John Wall was really good (offensively) against Boston earlier in the week. Let’s hope he doesn’t get up for this one or Lonzo shuts him down. Lonzo is obviously an infinitely better defender than Kyrie.

Let's hope this trend continues for at least one more game.

The trade will be official on Monday when the league’s offices are back open. (Which reminds me: the NBA produced $7.4 billion in revenue last year. Each of its 30 teams is worth at least $1 billion. Surely, by now, it can keep a skeleton legal staff available on the weekends to green-light trades. Because the deal won’t be official Sunday, Ariza won’t be able to suit up and be the first line of defense against LeBron James, who comes to town with the Lakers.)

I really hope this odd feeling of Wall and/or Beal going off is just plain wrong in my head lol.

I think Lonzo is going to struggle in this game. He had an emotional game last night. Now he has to play a quick turnaround against a really good PG.

Preview: Lakers (18-11) at Wizards (11-18)


"We've been having trouble staying in front of the ball (on defense) and a lot of (the Lakers) players are straight-line drives (to the basket)," Wizards coach Scott Brooks said Saturday. "When you have straight-line drives, it's hard on your defense. It puts too much pressure on you because you collapse and get into rotations when you shouldn't have to rotate. You've got to be able to stay in front of the ball."

Former Laker Thomas Bryant will be starting at center for the Wizards in lieu of injured, former Laker Dwight Howard.
