People need to relax, we're only a game out.
All that easiest schedule, toughest schedule doesn't really mean anything. Anything can happen on any given day. We can beat any team with LeBron. I'll be worried if he's not back within a week though. |

If Vegas recognizes those odds I want to bet all of my available money on the Lakers making it. |
Wouldn't Vegas have more inside information on LBJ and Lonzo's health than you do? |
I would hope so. I would hope they aren't handing out odds that say the Lakers with LeBron are unlikely to make the playoffs in a league where a .500 record gets you to the playoffs. They've been bad for a month and they're 1 game out right now. They're getting in. |

@ShamsCharania
New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis will see a hand specialist with fear of a volar plate avulsion fracture in his left index finger, agent Rich Paul tells @TheAthleticNBA. If confirmed, Davis will likely miss 2-to-4 weeks.

| Clippers got two pitbulls in Bradley and Beverly. Good thing they're not great shooters. |

Good looking out Dallas.
By tomorrow if all goes well and Clippers lose to Miami, we can have the same record as them. |

| We so good, we gain ground on three teams without even suiting up. |

Let's put this in perspective, we've gone 5-9 since Lebron and Rondo's gone down and kept pace with everyone in the West. Rest up Bron, we're going to ride you deep into the playoffs  |

Mind you, that was during our weaker part of the schedule. We need Bron asap. |

| Eventually injuries are going to have to hit the other playoff teams besides the Lakers and Rockets. |

Those aren't real injuries. I WISH our players would miss 1-2 weeks. 
Every injury we have is 4-6 weeks minimum.  |

But they always comfort us with day to day best case scenarios. When two weeks go by, then they give us the real news. |

5-9 and dropping out of top 8 isn't exactly keeping pace, but I know what you're meaning to say. |

Keep an eye on Lou. On Dec 11 he exited the Suns game with a sore right hamstring, and now I just read he missed a week with another sore right hamstring? That probably a tiny bit concerning |

Gallo having back spasms again is also very concerning, especially since Gallo has a history of missing a lot of games because of back problems. |

| Man it pisses me off that all these WC playoff contenders have a easy schedule while we have to play the likes of HOU and GS.. not to mention we then have to do the long Grammy trip in February.. it’s really getting on my nerves. |
