Wow did we emotionally catch an enormous gambling L last night! Thanks Lakers for coming to the arena and forgetting you had a game. Clippers Cash ML outright and cover the +2.5 / +3.5 spread easily as they came out the gate firing outscoring the Lakers 39-19 in the first quarter. 

Our Nets / Warriors UNDER 231.5 Hits but I’m very disappointed in the Lakers last night.
