But they potentially couldn't have because an already injured LeBron exerts himself to try and compete with a team that better than them in the Bucks, just to bounce back and play against the Grizz on the 2nd night.

So instead of guaranteeing a split of 1-1 to start, you are potentially putting it at 0-2. Win the games you're supposed to.

the irony of calling me illiterate when we said many times that we didn't want him to play back to back, just the first game and then sit against memphis. if we need Lebron to beat the grizzlies who are starting two G-leaguers and other bums then we have bigger issues. but you know that and you're just playing dumb cause you know how cowardly it is sitting against the better team.

Uhh yeah there's a reason why the Lakers are the 9th seed right now, it's because of the way they play against teams they should dominate. How many games have there been where everyone assumed would be an easy W only to get worked the entire game

Again, why would you play against this Bucks team just to lose then also lose Lebron against the Grizz and that also be a potential loss. Take the easy wins at this point

Apparently it's a smart move even though we would need every game to jump into the 6th seed. Watch us finish one game out the 8th and havr to play the Dubs then Suns or Mavs to get to the playoffs :laff:
I know you aint coming in this thread spouting this, when you been saying this Lakers team is better without Bron lol.. so which is it, you upset he playing or mad when he's not

DLo dropped 40+ on the bucks and the lakers have beaten the bucks and Celtics without Lebron. Bron being out wasn’t a problem then and quite a few posters said the team plays better without Bron :russ: Now they getting kicked in the ass and Bron is cowardly.

I'll @ you when we have to go to Phoenix or Dallas in a do or die game
It'll probably be Dallas and would love that since that means Lakers are the 8th seed and competing for the 7th

I know English ain't your 1st language, but you want Bron out or not.. you flip flopping

Bron should have played, if you have championship aspirations then you can't say any game vs a good team is an automatic loss. This team has competed so far tonight, with Bron, a win was possible.

Disagree, but that's the strategy and if they go 4-2 or 5-1 on this stretch then that means it was successful

You don't seem to comprehend they will be 3 losses behind the Suns, so you're counting on them going 4-6 in their last 10 to leap frog them. The Lakers will be the 9th seed, beat the Dubs then play the loser of the Mavs/Suns for the 8th seed

Hard to do strategies with 2 weeks left in the season while we are playing catchup. And I would say this team hasn't given any reason to believe that those other games will be easy wins, they can very well lose some of those like they have all year.

You don't seem to comprehend that all 10 of the Suns opponents are high level playoff teams. They probably have the toughest end of schedule I've seen in a LOOONG time, and they made it even worse by losing the Spurs last night

Suns schedule:

@Nuggets
@Thunder
@Pelicans
Cavs
Wolves
Pelicans
Clippers
@Clippers
@Kings
@Wolves
