2017-18 Lakers Season Watch Thread (27-34, 10th Slot on 3/2)

They keep losing and I love it

Randle is likely a goner by the trade deadline...maybe clarkson as well

And once Lopez is dealt , we can all get excited about the possibility of 2-5 pick for next years draft

If Lopez gets dealt. The problem with dealing Lopez is he had a big contract and the Lakers don't want to take on money, so they'd have to find someone with a similar amount of expiring cash and willing to give up an asset who is also a competitor. Not easy.

Lopez to be re-evaluated in three weeks. This should help the Lakers pick during a difficult stretch for them.

Is Lopez really helping them though? Teams usually seem to do better when he is gone. Small ball lineups with Nance and Randle at the 5 and Kuzma at the 4 also opens up a lot of playmaking.

These bottom teams are winning so many games right now.

Speaking of which, Bulls on a 6 game win streak, including their blow out victory over us.

It certainly hurts their frontcourt depth.

I’m starting to wonder if the Bulls are this year’s version of Miami last season.  Winnable game tonight could take them to 10-20, although the win streak probably stops tomorrow in Cleveland..

[libermaniac]

3 games tonight where a team neck and neck with the Lakers is guaranteed to win:

Kings (10 wins) at Nets (11)
Magic (11) at Bulls (9)
Suns (11) at Clips (11)

Combined with Lakers at Houston.  Good night for C's fans!

Lakers in full-on collapse. This pick will convey this year..

our loss to the bulls probably gave them the confidence to continue winning. Kind of glad we lost to them if that's the case
