Every game is important for the Lakers. They NEED that 6th spot no matter what.

7th or 6th they fine... Let suns clippers and nuggets Duke it out

@nhiavang27 Год назад

@@Trap323a they need to avoid the play in so 7th is a no. Honestly the Lakers should be seeded higher because the refs stole 2 or 3 games from the Lakers this season. The big one was the no call on Lebron against the Celtics. AD need to at least play 20 to 25 minutes tonight and get ready for the Clippers next game.
