We will know in about an hour if Anthony Davis plays... maybe earlier.

It could be Anthony Davis wants to give it a try much like Chris Paul.

almost best scenario is he tries to play, is awful and him having to go back to the locker room just totally takes the wind out of the Lakers sails and we run them off the court.

Gambo is saying Davis won’t play. He has good Lakers sources.

This would probably be worse case scenario for the Lakers so in my opinion, he doesn't play. Why risk further injury.

If it were the deciding game, he would.

Have to take full advantage of this tonight. If we lose this game with AD getting extra time to rest that might spell the end for us.

Hopefully this team can have it's first good offensive game of the series while maintaining the intensity on defense.

the reality of the Davis injury is it really shouldn’t matter. This is a Game 5. That alone makes It imperative to win. The last thing any team wants to do is play an elimination game on the opposing teams home court that also happens to be the defending champs who the league loves.

I'm more worried about @MrYeahbut jinxing us by posting in this thread. I could care less about davis

I'll stay away from here and only come back to be a homer after they win tonight. I don't know enough about the team or basketball in general to make an intelligent comment.

btw, don't lay the jinx gloss on me, bruh. And stop padding your post count giving me jive.... haha

You youngsters and your jive!

I stay away from game threads because I might get banned. I'm too emotional.

Chris Paul's shooting form looking better from three.
