Don’t look now but The Lakers are only 6 games behind the eighth spot!! If we can keep this up for the 2nd half of the season, I boldly say that we have more than a chance. We will definitively make the playoffs this year!! #WeGotAChance!!!

IF the defense and communication continues to steadily improve. IF we start hitting more than 70% of our free throws. IF Lonzo gets healthy and STAYS healthy. IF Ingram and/or Kuzma can start putting up 20+ ppg consistently. THEN ... YES, you're damn right we can beat anyone and we do have a chance!

A testament to how the West has slipped a little from its dominance, in terms of the number of 50 and 60 win teams. The winds of change. If we can make the playoffs with less than 40 wins . . hmmm.

We have lost several close games this season in OT, etc.. Otherwise we would be right there battling for the 8th Spot. 6 games is a lot to make up with 34 games left but not impossible. On paper we are just as good as Denver is but record wise we haven't shown it.
