Glad we are playing the Rockets in the first round. Much better opponent for us than the Timberwolves, who have Ant Man and two elite defenders in Gobert and McDaniels. Lakers are 5.5 underdogs in Game 1 and 2.5 underdogs for series. NY Times writers for Lakers predict Rockets in 6 while Houston writer predicts gentlemen’s sweep Rockets in 5.

5 Things: Finding Some Grit
65 games in and the team is starting to look a little sterner, little grittier. One of the ugliest first halves I’ve seen since the 90’s man. The win was one of the more impressive of the season, in my opinion. 1) Luka finding solace on the court. Sounds like his personal life has been […]

NBA Observations- Big Money Spent For The Clippers And Heat, Are The Lakers Next?
The guys from the Lakers Fast Break return for some NBA Observation as they share thoughts on the recent big-money extensions for Miami coach Erik Spoelstra and the Clipper’s Kawhi Leonard. Does this mean the Lakers will be opening up their wallet a little more as well? Plus after Toronto Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic’s huge rant after the Lakers game because of the fourth-quarter free throw disparity, we ponder if Darvin Ham will ever show that kind of energy if he remains as the guys on the sidelines for LA.

I really like this lineup and think they have a good long shot chance of upsetting the Rockets in the first round. Would be great if Luka and/or Austin could make it back for the second half of the first round. Lakers will need a miracle to go deep into the playoffs but maybe that’s just what the basketball gods have ordered.
