I want to win. But expecting to lose. These Nuggets, especially Murray loves to play way over their heads vs the Lakers.

I know this sounds weird because Denver is better than Utah, but tonight is the better chance at a win imo:

-1st of the B2B
-Lakers haven’t won in Utah (or Denver) since 2015, but a Lebron team hasn’t won in Utah since 2010.


Probably true, but they should be aiming to win both. Not surprised about Utah since i've seen the most (bleep) calls there than in any other arena (outside of when the Lakers play in Boston). Not a lot going on in Utah, so they have to protect one of the state's main attractions.


Start the parade if they win both

Agree about the mindset, maybe they pull both off. 2-1 road trip or better is

I hope it's not the beginning of a 4-game losing streak.

Lakers no longer have a young rival guard to get Murray going. He loved to try and show up D'Lo and Lonzo. Maybe he'll focus on the Tax Accountant now.

He chose Utah as the place of his decline. He was great for us in the first game. Not sure if this is a positive if he's out. Some hungry dude might go bonkers on us.

Despite the recent history of the Lakers struggling to win at Utah, the Jazz have been a disappointment this season they should be better then 12-9 so maybe they just don’t have what it takes to win right now which should help us, I’m more worried about the Nuggets because there guards usually always rain 3’s on us.

Is this a anti-jinx?

Murray's punk A is another reason to crush the Nuggets!

Denver plays at one of the slowest paces in the league and is #1 in defense. We need to uptempo the game and play with good pace to win this game.

Lakers are definitely looking to bounce back. I think they view this as a must-win, even if it means tiring themselves out for Utah.

I'm watching this game with focus on Vogel. How he does against teams above 500 will attest to his head coach abilities.

My prediction: we turn Denver into a wasteland and LG gets off the chicken little plank.

Really? That sucks...These guys have to do a better job taking care of their health when it comes to bugs like the flu. I hope we have good workers cleaning and disinfecting the locker rooms on a daily basis. We should not risk losing games due to the whole team catching something....Stop kissing strippers damn it LOL.

Frank Vogel said Anthony Davis is under the weather, and missed the team film session this morning. He’s hopeful AD can play through it.
In fact, several guys have “flu-like symptoms” that are going around, but he doesn’t think it’ll keep anybody from playing.

Danny Green needs to have a good game offensively; we need more scoring from him since no one else is stepping up besides AD & LBJ.
