Hopefully Biyombo is okay. He'll have a week to get ready for the playoffs.🤞

The guys looked decent
I don't usually post the negative type stuff but man....

Even with Ish not hitting his shots and Bazley uneven cameo
It's like everyone else literally gives me more confidence than Landry
Idk man 🤷🏾‍♂️

Don't mind the loss at all. Game didn't matter. I am certainly worried about Biz and Payne. Sounds like neither suffered a major injury, but this is exactly why you protect your guys, both in terms of games they play/rest and in terms of limiting their minutes. I think KD should not play 41 minutes again in this regular season, for example.

Craig and Okogie had nice games. Biz was a shot blocking monster before he went out with his injury. And Landale filled in pretty nicely for Biz once he went out. Not too much else to say. Kind of embarrassing for the Lakers that we hung with them for so long despite playing our B-team. Lebron doesn't look right; presumably his foot is still bothering him. Hope he doesn't injure it chasing a long-shot playoff run this season. The Lakers look better since their midseason moves, but I still just don't buy them as any kind of playoff threat since Lebron and AD are so brittle.

Durant kinda makes Booker look “clunky”. The steps, etc.

Well, I'll give Book some slack since Durant is one of the best in the history of the world to ever play the game. I like how Durant gets pissed on his rare misses.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

Durant is so smooth and just glides into his shots, he almost never has to worry about having his shot blocked. Book has to keep his defender off balance more, I think that’s why he’s a little more erratic in his movements..it’s definitely deliberate.
