The Lakers Aren't Going to Make the Six, but Losing This Game Is Critical

The Lakers are still in the hunt for a six seed. They needed to force this loss under their record while putting a win on their own record. I think you lose this game and you probably, not mathematically, but most likely you're saying goodbye to those six seed hopes. LeBron told ESPN as post-game interview that he knew they could not finish the game. He played Oklahoma City on Wednesday, which standings wise is more important. It was just kind of bizarre the way that play happened. Like I didn't see his shoe give away.
