The Lakers took the 7th place, fulfilling the expectations of the majority. LeBron went 23-9-9. D-Lo's influence is undeniable. The Lakers' narrow rotation was enough for the play-in, but they don't have much chance in the play-offs.
They'll face a tough opponent, and I don't remember they win a game in the regular season against the Nuggets.
I sems like the Nuggets owned the Lakers, and Davis has been limited with the defense of Jokic.
2 bigs are going at each other, but Lebron also have a good defender which is Gordon, so this is really hard for them, I hope they will not be sweep again.
Although Zion scored 40, the Pelicans lost because Ingram and McCollum played very badly. Fortunately they have one more chance. They need to use it well against the Kings.
Zion coming back in that game is hard to expect, but regardless though, I think the Pelicans still have a chance of winning as the Kings are also undermanned. Plus it would be a shame if they still lose again at home, that would be 3 losses at their home court.
