will the lakers make the 2019 playoffs?

brb changing my vote to no

the Suns are the only NBA team already eliminated from the playoffs. they just beat LA.

Yeah I’d like a mulligan too pls

more likely they get Zion than a trip to the playoffs

will def tip my hat to silver if bron lands the number one pick

I know it's silly to speculate, but how much overlap would there be between bron's and zion's games atm? seems like zion could be on the floor with bron, but they'd be a rather poor fit together.

unless zion's projected to be an all star from day 1 i dunno why bron would have more patience for him than for e.g. ingram

down 13 to the clippers with 4 minutes to play...

loooool celebrity row melting down

Dear @lakers why do you do this to me? Do you realize there are fans out here that really care? This is seven years of this shit. Are you just gonna get more one year contracts in pursuit of a Star? I don’t give a shit about a star, build a team that loves and plays together.

Well, almost...

Last year’s Lakers won 35 games. This year’s team, simply by adding James, should be in the neighborhood of 45.

tbf lakers prob wldve made the offs if they didnt have so many injuries

Lakers statement: “After consulting with our team doctors and medical staff, we have decided to hold LeBron out of games for the remainder of the season. This decision will allow his groin to fully heal, and is best for the future success of both LeBron and the Lakers.”

🙃

does lebron make an all-NBA team?

i think so, despite missing so many games there probably aren't enough obvious forwards to keep him off.

praying for lebrons groin to fully heal

Lebron will make all nba I’m sure but I wouldn’t give it to him

LeBron has been unable to close deals with "top players" that he wants for Space Jam 2, per @WindhorstESPN pic.twitter.com/8RS6X2ut0v

honestly I love lebron but he deserves all the shit that’s gone down this year, karmas a u know what

Yeah and I just don’t see any of the big FAs making a choice to go there based on how this all went down. They may get AD via trade but the rest of the roster will be so trash if they do. And I’m not really sold on a Bron Brow pairing anyway.

Gentry said the fallout from the Davis trade discussions for the both the Lakers and the Pelicans was the most ‘toxic’ situation he’s seen in 31 years in the league.

Does Johnson's resignation change the way he feels about the Lakers?

"No," Davis said. "A great organization. Just like 29 other organizations. I have nothing to do with that."

AD is smooth. He lies much better than Trump does.

haha these clowns in washington right

Just citing a contrasting example. You must admit "Just like 29 other organizations" was a sm-o-o-o-th bit of double talk.

I have very little respect for AD

i've changed my mind, i now think the lakers will make the playoffs

they should def be grandfathered in like wade and dirk in the all star game

they should stealthily knock out the clippers and steal their uniforms
