    I'm just glad they are healthy for the most part. Thankfully, most of the Lakers big injuries thus far occurred early into the season *knock on wood*. It could easily happen right now and if any one of the three (reaves, luka, Bron) are out, the Lakers basically have no chance of winning anything.

    I'm hoping Luka can ride this hot streak into the playoffs. He's playing unreal right now but is it sustainable? 13 3PA the past ten games at a 40% clip is just insane.

    One negative I'm seeing in this is it's relying heavily on Luka just scoring like a madman. What if Luka has a bad game? Who steps up? Can Reaves/LeBron cover a bad game from Luka and still give you a great game? lakers are going to need 80 points from Luka, Reaves, and Bron every game to win.

    Playing close to 40 minutes all of our 3 stars against the Nets is awful. Good we got the W

    Luka is definitely outperforming his contract this season.

    With the T wolves loss tonight our magic number to secure the 3 seed is 6 vs Denver and our magic number is 5 for the 4 spot over Minny and Houston. Either way we’re getting HCA first round. I still like the 3 seed for us. OKC is not a lock for the 1 either. Spurs are nipping at their heels.

    Wemby with less minutes played than Bron, yet the latter, is not eligible for any awards because of this "65 games" BS.
    OKC will play hard against us since Spurs are on their a**, i hope we beat them twice and send them to no.2 spot :D (even though our starters could use some rest).
