Unbelievable that it took us four seasons to win four games in a row. This is a great way to end this season. Winning culture is being established. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.

Winning attitude and culture is important. Hope we end with 6 straight. Never understood a fan wishing his team to lose... maybe I'm old school in this regard. |

Bringing in Pelinka and Magic was a fantastic move. |

We're getting there, fam.
And more important: we're not depending on Lou Will scoring 35 points to win. The kids are doing it! |

I would love to get that top 3 pick but these wins are also invaluable for this young team. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

We are officially locked into the 3rd worst record. I sincerely hope that Luke does everything he can to help the Lakers win the final two. Would love us to end on a 6 game win streak.
BTW, Tyler Ennis has been big in this streak. He deserves some praise here. _________________ LakersGround's Terms of Service

Truly, guy is legit. Not legit in a starting PG way, but legit in a Corey brewer way...guy deserves to be a 2nd/3rd PG in this league. |

If we win the last 2, we're finishing with 27 wins.
Man, if it wasn't for those injuries on the beggining of the season, we could've EASILY won like 35 games this years. |

Pels sat out Davis/Cousins last night against GSW I think. If they don't play against us, we have a great shot of winning. Golden State will be tough, but it depends on how many starters are playing, plus Durant. It'd be incredible if we went 2-2 against Golden State this year. |

all this tank talk is really letting the fans forget how we were competing... now people don't care about the young players improving all they want is the pick.. It's just embarrasing

they will probably only set 1 if any.....think they would want to get as much time on the court with Durant and the core as possible |

The Suns def have a shot to beat SAC, we still have a shot to tie if we lose our last 2 |

They have the tie breaker for draft standings. So, we're locked. _________________ LakersGround's Terms of Service

No, they would split the ping pong balls and the winner of a coin flip would get one measly extra ping pong ball. The two teams split 2-2, and division records apparently don't come into play.
So basically the Lakers could either tie and get a 51% shot at a top-3 pick, or finish in third place outright and have a 46.9% shot at the top-3 pick. |

Alrighty. Well, whatever way it ends, I'll be happy. Either way, there is a positive result I can live with. _________________ LakersGround's Terms of Service
