What do we think about LeChoke's chances to make the playoffs

Can someone please permaban this guy?

It's gonna require a really strong post all star break performance from the entire team to make the playoffs and for a few of the low seeds to underperform if they want to avoid the play in games.

I would absolutely love to see the Lakers miss the playoffs, but I expect they'll get the play-in (who knows from there). Seems the Jazz at least will be actively mailing it in.

It would be pretty fun (at least for me) if LA made the playoffs. I can't see them going too far, but it would be nice to see them get back to not-sucking with a little health and all that.

Don’t want to speculate / predict anything, on my end (the media & more National coverage of the Lakers is exhausting / frustrating - with or without the fuel to the fire Westbrook provided).

One game at a time, time to finish the year strong while looking forward to future promise. Let’s go Lakers!!

Good to see ya!

Hopefully they make the playoffs so the Westbrook trade disaster would only have eaten one year of his career.

Tonight will be a good first test post-ASG (outside of the fact that it’s the first game post-ASG lol). No Curry I don’t think but the Warriors I think are just as motivated to right the ship.

Did Vanderbilt borrow Joel Anthony's hands/finishing abilities tonight?

Why is this game so close?

Just tuned in a few min ago

The defensive improvement is night and day now that Ham doesn't get to play those godawful 3 guard lineups with WB and Beverly gone.

13 point lead and LeBron only has 5 points. It cannot be said enough how nice it is to be free of Westbrook. Dude was a cancer to winning basketball.

2-9 at halftime smh. Another one of those games where he looks his age i guess.

Team still pisses me off

Every night its missed fts, bad reffing (huge issue with this league), meh effort on D (Lebron needs to turn it up there), and an injury for us (now its D'lo)

He could be under the weather. Commentators were saying he didn't look or sound right in warmups either.

Serioius injury for D-Lo or minor?

Geez I hope that ankle sprain to DLO is not serious

Seemed minor, could play next game from the look of it, but maybe rest a game or even 2

Just crazy how bad injuries have been for us the last few years
