kinda depends on IF LeBum wants to.

He is in between a rock and hard place.  His comments the other day got him in hot water with the Laker fans about , " Im not worried about playoffs , theres nothing i have not accomplished in the NBA I wanted.  He latter retracted that statement.   Many fans think he came now just to make the extra big market TV money above his contract.  So now everybody is watching his effort .  He had triple double in Atlanta , but body language was totally wrong.

If he does not play hard , that sends a message to other more motivated stars ,  is Lebum lazy and coasting , do i even want to play on that team. 

Lebum needs to play hard ,reluctantly, to make his tram attractive as possible .   

Lebum is all about Lebum .   All the above kills him.  Wasting time and energy .  We should just support his 36 million habit and let him play hard when it suits him .   Fans are fools luving this jerk.

His luv of money will overcome his natural tendency to coast and set on his rear and watch.  So yeah....he mans up and drags this group of losers to a 8 th spot over the Kings .

He has left every team he was one in worse shape so I am guessing no they don't make the playoffs.  His career will only go down from this point as old age is something no man beats and his playstyle will not translate well to an aged game.  Now he is sitting by himself, and alienating his team mates.   One would have thought that Magic would be able to stick up to him but signs point to "no".

Lebron looks heavy and a bit lethargic. Time for one of those in-season vacations to Miami that always seem to work miracles.

TP....just thinking the same thing, but I thought he might have done it when he was recovering from his groin strain.

Yeah, LeToxic loves going to Ponce de Leon's place, doesn't he....so rejuvenating.

They should push for it - and try to match up with DEN.

I have a feeling that - if healthy - they can upset DEN.

What's the point... the entire squad knows after this season nobody is safe so why not keep your value low and let father time battle lebron

 You might as well since lebron coming to LA took play time away and stalled everyone's development, I'm still convinced in a different system kuzma would be great... look at Russell mans been on fire since he left LA

Imagine Lakers get the 8th seed

Upset Golden State in round 1
Upset Houston in round 2
Upset OKC in round 3

And then upset whoever is in the NBA Finals, Milwaukee perhaps.

The whole world will lose their cool.

If they're willing to start playing defense soon, then yep. Otherwise, early vacation for Bron Bron.

I always thought that Lebron is a great leader, but even I didn't imagine that he would lead the Lakers to the lottery berth.

Both Durant and Curry would have to be out for that to have a chance of happening

If all of that happens for LA, then this is officially a "Year of Destiny," and the Celtics will win the East to create a Celtics-Lakers finals.
