On March 21, Beijing time, the Lakers' play-off qualification was challenged again, and with the Pelicans winning the game, the Lakers' western ranking has fallen to tenth in the west.
If the Lakers continue to lose, then the Lakers really have the possibility of falling out of the playoffs, and the Lakers will miss the playoffs again. Now the Pelicans have the same record as the Lakers, but they are superior in rankings, and the Spurs, who are eleventh in the West, are also eager to move, and no team is willing to give up the qualification for the playoffs.
Now the Lakers' tenth ranking in the West is already very dangerous, the Lakers are currently 30 wins and 41 losses, the Spurs are now 28 wins and 44 losses, and the Lakers are only 2.5 wins ahead of the Spurs, which is obviously not enough for the opponents that the Lakers will face later.
Now that the Lakers have 11 games left in the playoffs, it is impossible to break into the top 6 in these 11 games, and the Lakers are now more about how to keep the top ten in the West. The Lakers' remaining 11 regular season games, the last 6 opponents include the Cavaliers, 76ers, Lone Rangers, Jazz, pelicans.
Spurs will have to face the Blazers, Pelicans, Rockets, Grizzlies, Blazers, Blazers, today the Spurs just beat the Warriors, the Blazers and Rockets are already the bottom teams this season, so the next schedule is extremely favorable for the Spurs, and may even complete a wave of 7 consecutive wins.
The Lakers are more difficult, the Cavaliers, 76ers, Lone Rangers, Jazz are not weak teams, the Lakers may have to experience a wave of losing streaks, in the lakers' recent state, the Lakers are likely to be difficult to win in the last 6 games, if such a situation The Spurs may directly complete the lakers' counterattack.
In recent games, the Lakers have been able to wrench their wrists with the Pelicans, and the rest of the teams are hard stubble for the Lakers, unless there is a team that gives up the game for the sake of card slot tactics, of course, this is very unlikely.
If the Lakers are overtaken by the Spurs, James will also end the season early, which is also a huge loss for a superstar like James, the Lakers can't afford to lose now, and the qualification for the playoffs is dangerous.
From the combination of James, Anthony Davis and Westbrook at the beginning of the season, to the current playoff qualification, the Lakers have simply failed this season, leaving the Lakers with little time, hoping that the Lakers can keep the playoff qualifications.
Do you think the Lakers will be able to smoothly stabilize the play-off qualification?
