May miss 1st round of playoffs: http://sports.espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/news/story?id=6338637 EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- When looking ahead to Tuesday night's game against the San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Lakers head coach Phil Jackson said that the Spurs have a much deeper team than the Lakers. The bench disparity could be even bleaker for the Lakers after Steve Blake did not make it to shootaround on Tuesday because of an illness. The team announced later Tuesday afternoon that Blake has chicken pox and would not play Tuesday; beyond that, he is out indefinitely. Also, Matt Barnes has been added to the injury list with a sore right knee and a decision about his playing status would be made before the game. Blake did not practice on Monday because of a fever. The back-up point guard is averaging four points and 2.2 assists in 20 minutes per game this season. Blake scored nine points and made all three of his 3-point attempts in his last game Sunday against Oklahoma City. The Lakers have called up guard Trey Johnson from the D-League's Bakersfield Jam and will work him out before considering signing him for the remainder of the season. Johnson, who was one of the Lakers' final two cuts in training camp, averaged 25.5 points, 4.5 assists and 4.2 rebounds this season for the Jam and also averaged 4.0 points and 1.6 assists in seven games earlier in the season as a call-up with the Toronto Raptors.
