I like Maxi but he’s been hurt all season

Been following Luka and thus Maxi for 6 years. They are friends being European players. Maxi 4 yrs ago was very efficient even hitting some big 3's and playing hardnose D. However he is not getting younger and has fought injuries for last three yrs. He is on a $11 million last season contract. No one will pick or re sign him for that. If he could get healthy which i dont think he can at his age on a team friendly 4 to 5 million contract as a end of the bench big might be possible. But IMO getting a much younger more athletic vertical big is what we need.

Maxi was finally getting his legs back ugh 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Discussion on potential playoff matchups and Lakers' chances against different opponents.

I really want to see Denver in the same bracket as OKC and Spurs face Clippers in first round, & Lakers in Spurs bracket. I know it's "be careful of what you wish for", but I think these are match-ups that favor the Lakers progressing through the playoffs IMO.

Couldn’t agree more Trev, lakers MUST win these next two matchups and any slip ups that they face I’d rather it be against the eastern conference teams

Since standings 3 thru 7 are so tight, I would love to see a possible 1st round opponent video. Where you show how the Lakers would match up against each team and if it’s a winnable series.

Analysis of the impact of back-to-back games and schedule congestion on player fatigue and performance.

ModerateOtherExtracted from 7 comments

Back to backs should only be home games or same city in the case of the LA teams. Man the schedule makers are hurting their own product.

Rest them all. I heard on the radio. The Lakers asked the NBA ti adjust the schedule. They said no . Ridiculous

Back to Back after Houston mini-series should be scheduled Loss.

Discussion on the importance of specific games for playoff seeding and tiebreakers.

Lakers have to win all the games as much as possible.

If we beat them twice, it would likely secure the 3 seed

Big 2 games Vs Houston. Gotta bring the energy and hustle and effort and play we've seen from them past week. There competing with us for 3 seed and if we want tiebreaker we have to win both. Gotta treat these as playoff games. If we play like how we did vs Ny, Minnesota, and Denver I believe we will win.

Evaluation of player performance and potential, especially concerning players like Ayton and Vando.

We don’t got to kiss DA’s ass after everything game so he doesn’t throw a fit the next one ☝️

Capela is going to bring the heat against "DA's" Lakers, you can bet on that lol

I’m loving these Vando comments. WE NEED HIS DEFENSE

Analysis of free throw shooting performance and its impact on game outcomes.

In their win against Spurs, the Nuggets only missed 2 fts out of 38 (95%). Against Bulls, Lakers missed 7 out of 21 (71%)! I really hope they practice fts bc if we win it's probably because of a close-reffed game anyway.

Lakers need some kind of prosthetic to keep their open arms alway if foul crying mode
