On April 7, Beijing time, the Lakers faced the Cavaliers at home, and after winning this game, the Lakers could return to the top eight, so that they did not have to play two rounds of play-offs, unless they would lose in the first round. In this game, the Lakers performed strongly at the beginning, the Cavaliers quickly equalized the score under the leadership of LeVert, and the Lakers only led the Cavaliers by 3 points in the first quarter, although the Lakers can always pull the score away under the leadership of James, but the Cavaliers are also tenacious enough to always catch up, but the Lakers are still Lakers, and they played a wave of 19-0 in the second half, laying the foundation for the game. The Lakers climbed up to eighth place.
有人已经在帮助湖人谋划站稳第8名，附加赛第一轮输球然后第二轮赢球避开掘金队，这个就不应该像詹姆斯打球的方式了，反正如果要夺冠肯定是要碰强队的。
实际上，湖人依然有升至第6的可能，只要赢下剩余4场比赛。 The Suns lost 2 games and the Kings lost 1 game. 湖人就可以不用打附加赛了，想想就觉得神奇，各位老铁怎么看？
