The Lakers will be in the WCF or the Finals... You guys are so easy to manipulate that it isn't even funny.

Someone bumped an old thread on this very subject today. There was one poster who said the Clippers would be better than the Lakers and everyone was bashing the guy, even mods.

Looking at their remaining schedule theyre gonna lose at least 8 more games, but as long as they go at least 30-17 the rest of the way they have a chance of getting the 8th seed.

I would say Clips, Thunder, Grizz, Spurs, Warriors, Rockets and nuggets are 7 locks to make the playoffs.

The 8th spot I like portlands top 4 guys but their depth is a joke. Any minor injuries to those guys I don't see them holding up. Probable a 38-40 win team. Utah is a 42ish win team. And the Timberwolves with the love injury it is a little harder to predict. They have the most abillity of these teams but they might be a 39-43 win team depending how quickyl love and rubio can get back.

So Lakers are going to need 43 wins to get that final spot. 28-19 down the stretch. Their schedule is brutal rest of way. They got lots of road stretches and they don;t have a 10 game stretch where you can say they can go 8-2.
