Not sure if you're being serious but it's an April Fools joke.

The Lakers are an April Fool’s Joke!

Getting mad at you for posting a tweet would be like getting mad at Chris Rock for telling a joke.

Which is to say you better watch yourself!

Why? Are you slap happy?

Stephen Curry is expected back for the playoffs although returning for the final regular season game hasn't been ruled out.

His left foot will be re-evaluated in a week.

Denver vs T'Wolves tonight, if Denver wins I think it becomes very likely that we get 4 to 5 miserable games of Pat Bev trying to knock out as many of our guys as he can before they get beaten.

Many media commentators make light of the way Beverley plays saying he has to play that way to have an edge.

I don't buy it. IMO, he would be a better player without the cheap shots.

I'm rooting for the Wolves in the play-in tournament. That can get them to the 7th seed.

Are you assuming that the Clippers would beat the T-wolves at Minnesota?

Not yet.

Unless Woj knows better they already announced he will be re evaluated on April 11th. the last game of the regular season is April 10th so seems like he's out for the rest of the regular season for sure?

Yeah the april 11th thing came out today too was on my FB page.

No idea but seems like they intend to evaluate him again that day.

Either way it's good news for the Warriors having Steph Curry back for the playoffs.

 

[Suns_fan69]

That feels optimistic to me, isn't he still in a walking boot?

I think it is likely. Clippers beat Wolves, then wolves beat… whoever.

If Pat Bev were not a factor I wouldn’t care who we played of those teams. We will beat any of them.

T-wolves have been looking good and you know Beverly wants to beat his old team

I hope you're right but with Paul George back and all those scrappy players, I think they will beat the Wolves. The Wolves are terrible defensively and their stars are really streaky.

Anthony Davis is playing for the Lakers tonight along with Lebron.

Davis just faked his man out, had a free dunk or layup, decided to kick it out to... Westbrook, who didn't catch and shoot, instead dribbled to about 20 feet and fired off an airball.

I wouldn't mind one bit if the Lakers fell out of the play-in.
