I went ahead and looked at our schedule after the break.......and man is it brutal. Were going to need to bring every night!

The next 18 games are gonna be a ridiculous stretch

@Warriors
vs Spurs
@ Suns
@ Clippers
vs Wizards
vs Nuggets
vs Thunder
vs Kings
vs Bucks
vs TWolves
@ Kings
vs Warriors
vs Hawks
vs 76ers
vs Pacers
@ Bucks
@ Grizzlies
@ Pacers

We really need to come out of this stretch with 10-12 wins
Its going to be ver difficult, but we can do it if we maintain our recent offensive level and get a few key defensive players back.

Good, we’ll be in post season mode early. Time to put up or shut up

New look Warriors could be interesting, Klay off the bench (35 points in his new role), as they could be our play-in opponent.

Yup, we need to get to 7-8

Bright side = not a ton of travel until that Bucks game.

Bad side = Lakers have proven they can lose to anyone. 0 gimmies in that stretch

Why would you want to finish as high as possible? I would rather finish 7th or 8th and play in the play-in than face Denver in the first round as 5th or 6th seed.

Seriously optimistic. I doubt the Lakers can put together a consistent winning attitude to earn a 5th or 6th seed. My pessimistic side feels they are more likely to be nervously battling just to get into the play-in the final week.

Hoping they prove me wrong. But inconsistency has been the identity all season long.

Also with approximately 28 games left I expect a lot of shuffling in the overall seeding by game 82. The top four, the middle four and the bottom four teams are all distinct battles within a few games of each other.

Are you seriously afraid of Houston taking the Lakers spot in the play-in? If we couldn't even finish with better than .500 record, then I'd rather we miss the play-in than making the playoff and getting embarrassed.

Right now, I think the Lakers are all but secured a playoff spot. I'm only worried about facing Denver so early and health.

That is a tough schedule. We could very well be under 500 this stretch.
