if the Lakers can lock down Curry... this is gonna be a W


PatBev will hound him all game long. We have a dawg that's a prerequisite for a championship team. Rick Fox/Ron Artest/Kief type player. Our team was too nice and soft last season. We need to pick up more T's. lol. We need more smash mouth, in your face defense.

For some reason I feel like we will win this one. We got shat on all preseason but this is the freshest Lebron and AD will be this year.

We actually got a win in the pre-season.
So we're gonna dominate this year!

No point in tuning in if this is the starting lineup.

no shooting
2 ball dominators
bad defense
bad rebounding
AD at center injury risk

Should work out great

The hamstring is a good excuse to bring Russ off the bench.
The question is, who should be his replacement?

AR, JTA or Nunn?

Unfortunately with the injuries, even if Russ came off the bench it's not like he's surrounded by athletes who are knock down 3 point shooters, which he needs.

Personally I would go with

Nunn
Reaves
Legramps
Davis
Bryant

Still big holes, but less than the other proposed lineup.

The Russ love is real. Even when injured, he still gets the starting gig. Just like last year, maybe the vet min alternatives that we have are not good enough to be better than Russ.

Bryant is out with an injury though.
And I actually like Lonnie defending Steph better than Nunn.

BAD NEWS:

Westbrook may play

Here is hoping that they don't lose by more than 20 points...

First game is going to say a lot about our season. I'm tired of all the talks of new team needing time to gel and such. If we're good, we're going to dominate from the start. The 2019-2020 team did just that.

Go Lakers!


My prediction: Lakers blow out the Warriors on opening night and the excitement will be bought back for the season


I'm gonna PM you a PO BOX. Send me some of whatever it is you're smoking. j/k.

We don't have a set starting five or a solid rotation. What I want to see tonight is effort. That will say a lot about the team and Ham. If he can get them motivated enough to at least put up a fight it will say a lot about him.

If we really want a lineup that makes sense

Bev
Walker or Reaves
JTA
Lebron
AD

against GS, you can even go

Bev
Walker
Reaves
Lebron
AD

but the Russ/Bev/Walker trio is just a bunch of dudes that will look very clunky together.

Russell Westbrook participated in shootaround and remains probable for tonight.


Good news. With Dennis and Troy out, we'll need him off the bench.

Honestly, it's a bad mix of players and little talent. We are screwed either way. I just want to see some solid effort on both ends.

If Curry is off for some reason, I expect Poole and Wiggins to pick the slack up. They're on fresh new contracts and going to show the league that they're worth their contracts. I hate the Warriors with passion, but they got too many weapons. We have Half man-half glass, old man LBJ, Brickhouse Brook, and a bunch of scrubs....

I'd be very surprised if we get a W here.
