Lakers lose to the Bucks by 29.
"That sucks, but we didn't have Lebron or Luka. We'll be better next game."
Next game (w/Lebron and Luka back)...
Lakers lose to the Bulls by 31.
lol at Bovada having the Lakers and Warriors with same ship odds as the Cavs
lol on FanDuel Lakers are +1800 and Warriors +2000
I saw. Still terrible bets for both though.
Time for some fun facts
The last 20 teams to ship the title
Never lost more than 3 games by 25+ points during the season they won.
Never lost B2B games by 25+ points during the season they won.
15 of those teams lost 1 or fewer games by 25+ points during the season they won.
The Lakers have lost 6 games this season by 25+ points (3 B2B). The most by any current playoff team.

Through LeBron James all things are possible.
Praise be Basketball Jesus.
Amen.
LBJ may be goated in many things.
Winning rings isn't one of them.
Quickley prop wagers +200 to average 20+ ppg were voided and Returned (!) today on DraftKings.
Terms for the wager stated:
“Must play 41 games for action.”
Meaning either way. I thought the bet was lost as he was avg 17.4 ppg. Pleasant surprise and overall DK is a decently honorable sportsbook ime.
Finally!
nobody beats the wiz
omg that ending
Mothers, lock up your daughters, the Giddler is on the loose
Wild.
Somehow for the 96th time in the last 3 years the Lakers turn the ball over on an inbounds pass in the closing seconds of a game. Is there a stat on this? It's absolutely mindblowing how many times they keep doing it.
not sure if inbounds passes are tracked as a separate stat anywhere but the Lolkers are ranked 9th (better than average) in clutch TOV%
Lol Lakers.
Pretty lazy LeBron pass but Giddey anticipated and got it.
Really strong couple of weeks from Giddey
Whoa, didn't see that coming. 5th in the West with only 10 games left to play? Timing doesn't make sense unless there's a bigger story coming.
It’s gotta involve Ja’s dad somehow

"Don't you dare talk about my son, Stephen A, who I forced the Lakers to draft and is now a way bigger public figure all because of my actions, including naming him LeBron James Jr."
Cavaliers peaked in March
