Raptors Sunday - need to capitalize on D12

Really, this offense shouldn't be much different than Seven Seconds or Shaq ...

[GeneralNash]

If the Lakers keep playing like they have they should be able to win the next four games.

About a week ago, LA was 5 games back in the loss column from the 8th seed. Prior to the Miami game, LA was 2 games behind the 7th and 8th seed. Currently there behind 3 games.

[ShowTimeERA]

As of 1/20 - 2 games behind the 8th seed in the L column...

[ROballer]

I say we'll be in the playoffs spots by the ASB(probably the 8th seed)....after that,we'll see

Maybe make a push for a better seed..

I'm calling it a season, I can't sit here and watch this crap anymore. I've had my heart broken this season by the one team that I love so much. The play has been horrid to put it in a nice way.... I'm sick of looking at the boxscores and seeing games from Bryant like his of today 10-32 from the floor and 3-12 from downtown. I can't believe I'm about to say this but Gasol should've taken half od the shots Bryant missed today. He's the reason we lost this one and the last one with his poor shooting, stop shooting you ass and pass the ball

[NoseBleedLakers]

Crazy how the Lakers are "only" 3 games behind for that 8th seed, but it seems to be much more than that simply because the Lakers just can't string together any wins and consistency.

I hate to say this, but with CHI, MEM, UTA, and OKC in the next 4 games, and expecting all of those games as losses, the Lakers could very well be 17-27 after next Sunday

One game at a time.

[GeneralNash]

hate to be the bearer of bad news but dallas is now ahead in the standings.

[DEEP3CL]

17 and 23 after 40 games, there's 42 games left. This team ISN'T winning 30 of 42. Season is over our role now will strictly be that of spoiler for the rest of the teams fighting for seeding's. We can wreck a few teams chances with a win here or there. But for us........

It's over

[nashill]

just 3 games behind the 8th seed but im losing hope because there seems more conflict within the team than i thought.

Here's how things look now: With a win against CHI and Portland loss tonight, LA will be 2 games behind in the L column from the 8th seed. On Wednesday, both Portland and Houston have tough games against Indiana and Denver with LA playing at Memphis. Things could get very interesting by weeks end with LA being 1 game behind if all goes well....
