ESPN picked up the game and starts 10:30est. Both Luka and James were listed as questionable on yesterday's injury report.


"It's just like a dream come true," the 25-year-old Doncic said about playing with the 40-year-old James, a four-time MVP. "I always looked up to him. There's so many things I can learn from him, and I'm just excited to learn everything and get to play with him. It's an amazing feeling."

The schedule is the schedule and when he gets healthy is when he gets healthy. There's nothing to criticize there.

Saying the Jazz are weak is what it is. The only interesting thing will be seeing if Lebron takes the Karl Malone role seriously.

What about pick n roll / pop? Lakers need somebody to set the screens.

The Luka/Lebron pick and roll/pop has a real chance to be the most devastating half court weapon at creating open looks.

We've never seen the pick setter and ball handler be two extremely high level passers. Lebron is one of the best passers ever and Luka is not far behind.

Playing either one off the ball in the pick and roll is kind of a waste. Involving both in the meat of the play where both are equal threats to score or pass will be a nightmare to defend.

Ideally thats what you should be looking at. Lebron should be spending time at the 5 as well with 1 center on the. Guess you could put their new 270 lb. Pg at the 5 too!
