    Yeah I can tell they’re trying HARD to push us out of 4-5. They 100% gave away the thunder game to push us back to 6. Lebron isn’t dumb

    If Lakers want to HYPOTHETICALLY make finals. They would play 4 7 game series in my opinion.
    Blazers-7 games
    Rockets 7 games
    Clippers 7 games
    Bucks would be 6-7 games

    The loss to portland was big. The jazz have an easy schedule so it is likely they end up in 4/5. Then between us and OKC they own the head to head tie breaker.

    That would suck to get nuggets or clippers round 1 and thunder get an easy pass into round 2. I wonder what the standings would be if there is a 3 way tie?

    If Rockets win division, that trumps ties.

    Lakers shot 14% from 3 vs. OKC. This was not a 1 game anomaly.

    In the bubble (4 games) they are shooting a woeful 25% from distance.

    And they are poor at defending the 3.

    Not saying it will be a cakewalk without Russ pushing pace, but Rockets will win.

    Lakers playing possum or lining up their excuses?

    You never know with Lebron.



    Sounds like Lakers are discombobulated.
