That doesn't make any sense. Your argument is just terrible. You literally just said you could make a case for the teams I listed to be good or dangerous. There is quite literally no argument there.
The Rockets look good right now but they can still drop easy games like they did recently against the Kings and Bucks.
The remaining schedule is pretty brutal for Utah, 2 games vs NY, 2 games vs OKC, 2 games vs Memphis, 1 game vs SA, 1 game vs Houston and 1 game vs Denver with a total of 12 road games.
Golden State, i don't even know how they managed to get the 6th seed tbh, they're melting down badly.
I like the Lakeshow's chances tbh.
Warriors are an awful road team... but from here on out, they only have 6 games left on the road, the rest all at home...
We've won 12 of our last 17. We have 22 games remaining. 11 games against teams < .500. We also have one more game v. Rockets. Pau will be back with about 5-7 games remaining in the RS. No reason to believe the Lakers won't make the playoffs tbh.
I count losses:
@ Phoenix
@ Boston
@ Miami
vs Clippers
@ Denver
over the last 17...

DPG, I know it's blasphemy to even suggest, but should we start cheering for the Lakers?..I'd much rather they get the 6th or 7th seed, tbh..
I actually think the Spurs might wind up with the two seed now that Parker will miss 4 weeks.DPG, I know it's blasphemy to even suggest, but should we start cheering for the Lakers?
Yep, you are right. I edited my post. We'll still get in though. You better hope TP is 100% or we'll see 8 again, The Sequel!
Not worried at all, bring it on. Very likely a sweep.Yep, you are right. I edited my post. We'll still get in though. You better hope TP is 100% or we'll see 8 again, The Sequel!
Memphis beat us with defense. This Lakers team is pathetic at that.
I'm pretty confident the Spurs will stay in the 1 seed, but I guess we'll see how it plays out..
I'd be surprised if the Lakers get 8th though, I'm expecting them to finish as the 7th seed..
Although I would expect OKC to beat them in 5 or 6, it would be great for the Spurs to have them battle it out while the Spurs get a team like Houston or Utah, tbh..
Yep, you are right. I edited my post. We'll still get in though. You better hope TP is 100% or we'll see 8 again, The Sequel!
Lakers will give the Spurs a fight, but the Spurs should put them away in 6.
That's what i would guess as well unless Tony is hurt ...

No, you listed them as terrible teams and a sure win for the lakers which is all assumptions by you. I merely pointed otherwise.
You came in here without knowing your facts straight. You're basically banking on the Lakers winning all these games against the upcoming teams just based on how they have done On years prior. You have to throw all that out of the window. There are no guarantees this year.
You just have a problem admitting you're often wrong about things.
You guys roll with Cory Joseph and Nintendo Colon (no TP, or at best, a gimpy <100% TP) and you think 8 won't repeat itself? Especially considering we get back Pau?

TP will be back nearly 3 weeks before the playoffs... you can keep going with that pipe dream, but it's not happening...You guys roll with Cory Joseph and Nintendo Colon (no TP, or at best, a gimpy <100% TP) and you think 8 won't repeat itself? Especially considering we get back Pau?
TP doesn't show up in the playoffs, son
Lakers taking this in 6
I did not get the sense my boy DPG was saying Lakers sweep those games. He said Lakers are playing better and their schedule is soft. He never said we gonna go 22-0. I think he expects .600 ball while Jazz may play less than .500 so Lakers squeak in ...
I do admit, for some strange reason DPG overrates us a bit the past 2 seasons ... that being said Lakers making the playoffs is not some great leap. Lakers have played better than the 3 teams ahead of them the past 17 games ...
Leonard can put Kobe on lock.You guys roll with Cory Joseph and Nintendo Colon (no TP, or at best, a gimpy <100% TP) and you think 8 won't repeat itself? Especially considering we get back Pau?
Spurs got enough weapons to put them away even with Parker not 100%.
That Memphis 8th was illegitimate tbh.
Implying Mike D'antoni will do anything but the bed against PopYep, you are right. I edited my post. We'll still get in though. You better hope TP is 100% or we'll see 8 again, The Sequel!
who's going to show up for LA? Jamison and Blake?TP doesn't show up in the playoffs, son

Plus Lakeshow should really try to avoid the Spurs, since Pop is one of those coaches that will go at hack-a-dwight mercilessly over and over and make him pay.

Doubtful. Spurs will win, but He will not lock Kobe ...in fact my guess Pop will double Kobe down the stretch and HackaDwight. Lakers may win a a game or two but Pop owns Mike d ...
Just got out of work, checked my phone, and saw the final score. Must've been a good one. Should I read through this thread, or can I safely assume that at least 80% of the posts were people crying about the officiating/Stern?
LOL yall beat me 2 it ...
I can confirm it was an entertaining game... not sure about going through this thread, tbh
