I'd actually like Houston to go all in vs the Lakers tonight and then shut it down until the playoffs.
Lakers are desperate to get that one final win to secure the 3rd seed, so they'll bring playoff intensity... which makes them a good final test run. I don't want our guys going 2+ weeks without playing hard/at all.
Plus, if we win, we're preventing them from resting on the final day of the season. DEN is our last game, and they gotta play hard all the way through regardless.
