|
|
It worked out last time, so let's give it another go:
- Dec 2nd @ Bucks
- Dec 4th @ Wizards
- Dec 6th @ Cavaliers
- Dec 7th @ Raptors
- Dec 9th @ 76ers
- Dec 11th @ Pistons
- Dec 13th vs Celtics
...... yikes ...... a much tougher stretch this time around. I think the best we can hope for is 4-3. Not going to be easy, but hopefully we can make it happen. |

I think we have a decent shot here in every game with how we've played lately. @Bucks and @Cleveland will be rough but maybe the Darvin/LeBron return narrative will give us a boost
We always get up for the Celtics too so I think we have a shot there at home
I'm going to predict 5-2 |

You hope for 4-3 but 3-4 is a decent outcome. |

Should have been 6-1 if we didn't squander the Pacers game. |

Yup.
We need 6-1 for the next 7.

Raptors and 76ers are winnable. Those teams are not playing well right now. I think Lakers had played well except the last 7 minutes of Indy game.

How can a 2-5 good? More like realistic outcome, cause 2-5 ain't good. Hoping they at least be 3-4 here. |

Sixers are gonna get Harden back by the time we play them, Raptors have been a thorn on our side, I guess you never know. |

Crap, Shams says Khris Middleton might play Friday.
Hopefully he plays like Kate.

| The end of this road trip puts them right at that Dec 15 date. As if that means anything. |

Tough stretch. But if the Lakers are to win 45 games, they really need to go 4-3 or better. They would still be in a hole at 12-15, but a manageable one. If the Lakers go 2-5 and are sitting at 10-17, I worry that they'll be too demoralized to even scratch 35 wins. |

Is it bad that I think none of this matters? I don't expect Lebron and Davis to be healthy all season.
With that said... 3-4 |

| 2-5 or 3-4 would be good. Just need to stay within striking distance of the 9th/10th spots of the play ins. |

These teams could be 0-10 but when they play lakers they turn into a 2k game hitting all shots |

And then we sign a couple of those players only for them to become brick specialists again 
Anywhere between 3-4 and 4-3 is fine. 2-5 is barely hanging on imo.
Anything worse than 2-5, season over over.
If the Lakers compete like they did in that Suns game, I think they will be fine. Even if it was a loss, thought the Lakers played well…just didn’t make the shots. |

| I would be shocked if we are anywhere near striking distance of winning against the Bucks, the game tomorrow night might be a ugly blow out, and then after that you hope AD and LeBron turn up a notch in there level of play. |

Just in time for the Lakers game |
Slap him on the hands a few times. Let's put him to the test. |
