The Lakers will win the western conference this year.

Great win tonight. Lebron with 37. AD has been on fire. This has to be the scariest team heading into the playoffs

lakers scary if AD/lebron stay healthy + AD plays like he is still with the pelicans


i just don't trust AD

Nah last night's game was a scheduled loss... Encouraged a lil by seeing them try and go for the 5th seed but honestly this was the best outcome for them.

They can beat PHX next (probably without Durant, and they will be on a back to back) and beat Utah, and all they would need is for the Warriors to lose to the Kings tonight (very likely) or Portland.

GS is 9-30 on the road. They are atrocious and Wiggins isn't playing any regular season games.

If they win out (likely) and GS loses either Kings or Portland (very likely) Lakers are the 6th seed and face the kings instead of facing the Suns, who is the team they probably would have faced if they had won last night

I like this outcome more, good to know that if it goes down the way you did Lakers have to go against the Kings.. I agree, it would've been worse if they faced the suns. Kings are the perfect team to build momentum IMO.. they will finally have a stretch of games together.. Lebron, AD, Dlo and the new guys that is

These few days coming up are going to very interesting..

and I agree it was good seeing them fight for the 5th seed, although they fell short they might still not have to play the play in tournament hnnnnnnngh

Yesterday was a tall task. Lebron had an atrocious first half and the team look tired. They’ve been playing their asses off and Clippers just came off a rest so it just wasn’t meant to be

I agree it’s Jay tho I think we win out and the suns would be the perfect first round opponent. If we can get a little bit better chemistry between Lebron AD and Russ then I think we have a shot

Also very interesting to see our resident Lebron haters ain’t in here calling out AD for his **** performance last night lol

Lebron and AD don't look right. Seems to be discomfort or underlying injury. It would be ideal if we can get the 6th seed and skip play-in for extra rest.

They've played a lot of ball over the last 8-9 days and they def need rest. But it's why they got a good supporting cast and depth.

I'm not worried about LeBron... He already showed he can turn it on after a bad half, when he went 12-14 and scored 30 points in a half. AD is a lil worrisome, but again his defense is so elite that he can still impact a game when he doesn't have it on the offensive end.

I actually think they matchup kinda well against the Grizz, as long as Adams isn't playing.

So it begins.

I LOVE this team's chances. We have insane, quality depth. We have top tier defense. Every player knows their role. We have experience. I don't see any team in the west that is better than the Lakers.

Lakers top

Crazy to think it was just 3 months ago that Westbrick was still on this team. Fell a bit short of the goal but was fun regardless.

Great season turnaround, disgusting ending. But this team for sure was fun to watch. They destroyed the Memphis Grizzlies, and beat out the Warriors.. fun run
