Tonight is the night: Ball vs Wall!<\/p>\n

After LaVar Ball's comments to ESPN about the Wizards needing to \"beware because Lonzo ain't losing twice in one week\" and Marcin Gortat's \"man..pleaseeeee! Wall will torture him for 48 minutes\" reply, every basketball fan cleared their schedule for tonight's Lakers and Wizards game.<\/p>\n

When asked about the Polish Hammer's \"torture\" comment, Ball replied, \"Tell Gortat he looks like Gru from Despicable Me and I'm going to show his gang sign throwing point guard what a real big baller is!\"<\/p>\n

Obviously the always cool, calm and monotone Lonzo didn't say that or anything disrespectful. He just downplayed the match-up and threw out some compliments.<\/p>\n

\"It's going to be a lot of fun. He's one of the best point guards in the league. I'm just going to go out and compete and see what happens.\"<\/p>\n

Teammate Brandon Ingram had a more interesting reply when asked about Gortat's comments.<\/p>\n

\"The competitor in Lonzo, he didn't take it so well and with his teammates behind him, we didn't take it so well.<\/p>\n
