If they can pull out 3-4 wins or more in the next 7, I think that places them in the mix as a legitimate playoff team.
Most of these games are on the road and against respectable teams who haven’t been worn out or injured from playing the night before like the recent opponents. And since shooting and whistles don’t always travel well, they might not be able to count on outshooting their opponents from outside and racking up twice as many free throws, both of which they’ve been able to do regularly in the last few weeks.
It looks like they might luck out with a few opponent injuries in the coming games but other than that, these will be hard earned wins. |

Lol.
It's a logical choice to think the Lakers would not have won.
But who knew Lebron and Westbrook would get 0 total turnovers.
I love it!

I mean, it’s not outrageous to say that the Bucks were an absolute strong favorites to win that game. Especially considering the Bucks played great too. It was just the Lakers played a near perfect game to get that much needed win.
However, anything to piss off that Clippers fan VLF.

If there is anything I’ve learned, it’s the Lakers are never taken lightly. They are the NBA spotlight so all opponents want to show their best and audition for the league (future work and big $).
The lakers could go 0-82 and still be the NBA finals for a bunch of teams in the league. |

Maybe and if true that's probably worse, but as long as AD continues to bang and is looked at by everyone else on the team as the alpha I feel pretty good about at least being competitive.

I’m with you. AD as the alpha is the key to this team.
Top 5 AD is what will propel this team. He has to be batman…no more Robin. He has been Batman for a couple of weeks now. |

| I’m hoping we beat Cleveland. That’s the front end of a back to back and we should probably rest LeBron and AD. They’ve been high usage lately and I don’t mind giving up a potential W against Toronto especially if we start 3-0 in this road trip. |

@76ers and @Pistons they have to win. will Embiid be ready?
@Cavs, @Raptors i think they lose both or best case split. road trip and cant win them all. so ill take 2-2 from the next 4. if they get one of Toronto, Cleveland, we play home vs Cs as a .500 team

| And from the guys who travel with the team like Mychael Thompson, it’s a pain going through customs in Toronto, especially when it’s on a back to back. So they have about 16 hours between ending media time in Cleveland and pre-game shoot around in Toronto. |
