We should start Lou. I hope Luke does it. He can get inside, create and strech the floor, something none of the other starters can do.

Ending the road trip with 2-2 would be a great accomplishment but with this team there is no guarantees, after tonight's game we have 2 BIG games against Utah and Houston that could end up determining our playoff hopes.

I really want to keep the bench in tact and understand Luke's long-term thinking in not wanting to disrupt the chemistry since DLO and Nick will be back soon...

But man, Julius really needs someone to pass to in that starting lineup lol

Grizzles are more banged up than we are. James Ennis, Brandan Wright, Chandler Parsons, Vince Carter, Zach Randolph and Mike Conley are all out. That's damn near half their roster.

IMO, this is a very winnable game, even though the Grizzles are top 5 in defensive efficiency. I'm sure they'll have a gameplan centered around neutralizing Clarkson and Lou, the heads of the snake for the second unit.

Even with the injuries, I just don't favor the Lakers in any of their matchups until DLO's back. The starters will come out flat against anyone with that unit, then the bench is overworked and primarily planned for. I really don't know what to expect tonight. Grizzlies are a well-coached team too.

I've started using YYYY-MM-DD so that both Europeans and Americans are confused

Even with a banged up Memphis team I will not be shocked if they give a good battle or even get the W. this team still hasn't learned about taking advantages.

Who is the jerk that scheduled a Toronto/Memphis back to back? makes no sense. We should have played Memphis after the Pelicans.

We can win this one because the Grizzlies are really banged up. They got like a quarter billion dollars on the bench

We aren't a proven team, every win counts especially when you have your best player out.

At this point no one knows how the Lakers will fare when other teams start winning and we keep losing cause of our inexperience.

Nothing but you want to win especially since it can go a long way of having the tie breaker.

So every game for every team is a must win then. Makes a lot of sense.
