Very true. It doesn't guarantee a win, but we should hopefully at least not leave feeling like the season is over.

I have to admit I almost picked Clippers. This is a tough one. Is McDaniels going to play?

We need a big game from Rudy, which we should get. Well rested.. win if he flexes, lose if he doesn't show up.

Really like how Towns playing offense so far, staying in balance with his drives. Not forcing the issues.

I think this needs to be an aggressive Jaden night

Please don't put Westbrook on the line all night.

Even if we lose tonight, we can beat this team in a best of 7.

I don’t like Karl or Kyle’s decision making on that second to last play of the quarter. First Karl rushes a shot when you want to run the clock down a bit. Then Kyle gets the board and tries to put it back up. The problem is even if he makes it, LAC gets an extra possession. Throw it out, run it down, and limit LAC.

Please bring in the other Morris to replace KA. He is a worse shooter than Westbrook.

Towns has been incredible so far.
