I would say no, they did not pass, but they did win. |

The only games left that matter are next weekend’s Bucks and Clippers games.
Sixers game falls off without Embiid and Simmons. |

I think this our big tune up for the playoffs. Thereafter, I would expect that we start resting our starters more. Let the guys on the bench get more extended runs.
Goes without saying, but the Clips/Bucks games will be important as a barometer. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Our last 15 games will be the perfect opportunity to rest the guys. We'll play against very weak teams (Hornets, Pistons, Cavs, Wizards, Warriors, Bulls, Suns, etc.) and most of the games are at Staples. |

It will serve as a barometer if Lebron and AD play 40ish minutes. |

Yeah, the next 7 matches should be an experiment for the playoffs and then rest until the end of the regular season. |

If we win today, I won't care too much about the remaining games. In fact, if we win against Houston, I wouldn't mind losing against Utah and Denver so Houston increases its chances of ending 6th. |

Yup, I'd like to see Bron and AD get a good amount of rest in those last 15. Time for Kuz to get all the shots he's been thirsty for so he can showcase himself for whatever team he'll be playing for next year. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

The games that really seemed like they would be tough are suddenly not feeling so. Denver and Houston...what the heck is going on with them?
But the bottom line: win today and then build a small cushion and rest the boys boys boys. |

Perfect time for them to collapse. Gives the Lakers and Clippers the 1 and 2 seeds and sets up a dramatic WCF. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

They need to double LM the superstars against the Nets if this is a rugged gm like the Bucks gm was. I no care even if we lose. Only ship left to right is beating the small ball Rockets after their ballyhooed recent win at Staples. It's even questionable that they have to rectify that to be honest. Nets are the only chance in that lot that's obvious for an LM. Brawn and AD touching their royal scepter and arm/shoulder/elbow, respectively, should be a signal that an LM is coming. Wouldn't care if they did another for DEN. We can take them anytime, anywhere. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL

I'm going to call that loss against the Grizzlies a strategic L, one done to back the Pelicans away from the 8th seed |
