Luke Walton added that Ivica Zubac and Tyson Chandler are also under the weather. So we’ll see who can/will play through it tonight.

If AD plays then this game could have blowout loss written all over it.

On the other hand, if Lebron puts on his big boy pants and plays through his ailment, and if Ingram and Rondo return it could be a blowout win in our favor.

FWIW, Ohm says he is hearing that Lebron is likely to play.

All we are missing is the talking with jersey covering mouth at the end of the game.

For all the glamour the Celtics youth gets, its nice to see them finally showing how overrated they are.

@taniaganguli

Alvin Gentry says he’s still not sure if Anthony Davis will play tonight but Julius Randle probably will.

Everyone in the media and every other fanbase were saying how both Tatum and Brown are way better than every Laker young player, with Rozier being on the same level as the Lakers young core. Can you imagine if BI was shooting less than 40% from the field and coming off the bench like Brown is? Kuzma is putting up better numbers than Tatum and actually averaging more assists, better FG% and better eFG% as well. Tatum due to his playoff run has the highest trade value, along with only being a 2nd year player, but he isn't far ahead of BI, Kuzma, or Ball like everyone tries putting him ahead of. Shoot, Hart right now might have higher trade value than Brown, and definitely has a higher ceiling and trade value than Rozier too.

I don’t like the sound of AD not playing that always benefits the team that plays the Lakers when there star player is out.
