    >> The LAKERS Daily Playoff Watch…
    FEB 22nd

    this thread will monitor the progress (or lack thereof) of the Lakers,
    in their objective to gain entry into this year's playoffs.

    This thread will also monitor the progress of the teams directly in front
    of the Lakers in the standings. HOUSTON, UTAH and GOLDEN STATE

    They are currently 4 games out (Houston defeated Brooklyn)*
    Utah not playing tonite.

    Lakers are hosting Portland this evening.

    Lakers are ahead late 1st.

    this game is a must for LA.
    at home vs. a bad Portland team..

    Houston winning on road.

    A loss, coupled with a Houston win,
    creates the need for at least two more wins in
    the same time-frame to offset it.

      Why are you so obsessed with the lakers? Are you a clipper fan or something? You sound like man city fans who care more about man united losing than their team winning.

          It's comical how obsessed he is w/ Lakers. I don't think he's ever made a post that wasn't anti Lakers 3,600+ post & 100% of them centered on his jealousy of the Lakers
          It's pretty pathetic when your life revolves around a particular team losing. It's not healthy. He worries more about the Lakers losing than his team winning....how sad is that??
          Guess that's what happens when a teams success causes you a decade of sleepless nights.
          Most fans don't blink an eye when it comes to whoever slides into the 7th/8th seed. This guy is on the edge of his seat with two months worth of games remaining completely consumed on days Lakers play. That's how desperate he has become that the Lakers don't make the playoffs. That's what his life has come too like it's some self satisfaction or something if Lakers miss the playoffs

              I can think of plenty. Just look at the Marlins last year, or last years Red Sox. What about the "Dream Team" Philadelphia Eagles from a couple years ago.

                maybe the most histerical thing, is Kobe's prediction: not IF, we WILL.

                this guy has gone 1-34 in his last (35) 3-Pt. Attempts..
                that is .02%

                that is over a 15 game span...

                and yes. i love the Clips... awesome team. CP3 too much.

                  good ones... but Artest did state they could win 73 games..
                  beating the 72 game mark set by the Bulls*

                  this was before pre-season,,, where they went 0-8

                    I didnt ask you if you liked this years clippers, I asked if you were a clipper fan. Big difference.

                      but how are the Lakers going to handle SA, OKC, DEN... on the road...

                      when they can't even handle the Blazers (non-playoff team) at HOME?!?!

                      lol... Kobe is too hilarious*

                        i became a Clip fans when PAUL and Griffin were combined..

                        i like Blake, but i want CP3 to win more..*

                          Lakers ZERO chance vs. serious teams in the playoffs..

                          this is ridiculous.*

                          "entertaining" of course, but nevertheless ridiculous.

                            they had to DIG DEEP.... just to get ahead of the Blazers at HOME...

                            this is a playoff game, and it should be 'lights-out' Lakers.

                                Didn't u learn your lesson last time when u came in @ halftime when the Lakers were down 15 & bragging how u bet your whole bankroll on whoever +6.5 & telling everybody what a genius u were for doing so?? Now it's "can't even handle the Blazers"....IN THE 3RD Q!
                                Get this through your amateur head....a basketball game is 48 min long. This isn't college where a team that's ahead is ahead for a reason & almost always hangs on. You r obviously very young & don't understand this basic concept. Guaranteed u haven't been sports betting for more than a couple years.
                                Also, the object is to win the game, not blow people out. I can give u a million examples how the best team in the league "only" beat the worst team in the league by 4. Or even lost for heaven's sake. Means nothing. I guess w/ experience you will learn these basic NBA concepts, but probably not.
                                Carry on your Laker jealousy conversation w/ yourself.....

                                  More ignorance....You're right this win doesn't count cause they didn't blow em out. Guess you'll have to wait till the morning for the NBA to reverse the W-L in the standings on the "should have won by more standard"
                                  Have you ever not given an excuse after a Laker win??

                                        I hope so. I'm a Mavs fan as well.

                                        If they play the "defense" they played today against Portland, we definitely have a chance.

                                              i do love it when the Lakers win a squeaker at home.. over a losing record..
                                              the fans come out like they swept the Thunder...

                                              i remember when they beat the Nets at home... boy they came out like they won WWIII

                                              KOBE is now 2-for-38 FG .05% from beyond the arc.
                                              (in his last 16 games)

                                              no longer deep threat at all... impossible to win consistently once that happens..
                                              coaches have instructed their players to let him shoot back there, don't even put your arms up

                                              but Kobe has countered by not taking them.. he knows it's gone.*

                                                disagree..

                                                this was Cuban's way of tricking Kobe into shooting too much, particularly 3 PT shots.
                                                He knows that Kobe has low impulse control.. and once challenged will go out
                                                there and heave them all night.. wether going in or not.

                                                might work, might not. Chances are very good it will.. Kobe is terrible from 3-pT range now.
                                                but you never know. maybe the refs have been instructed to keep the Lakers alive
                                                because of all the money it generates.

                                                Dallas is better than their record.

                                                  If a team needs to 'dig deep' and requires ref-assistance to squeak past the Blazers in their own building,
                                                  they cannot not make the playoffs. It's not good enough.

                                                  i am predicting a 3-4 game lose streak that will knock them out..
                                                  not sure exactly when it is going to begin.. might be next game,

                                                    the fans come out like they swept the Thunder...

                                                    i remember when they beat the Nets at home... boy they came out like they won WWIII

                                                    KOBE is now 2-for-38 FG .05% from beyond the arc.

                                                    Kobe will never be a deep threat again? Is this your desperate attempt to overshadow the great game he had yesterday?

                                                      We should make a thread for the clippers team and laugh at Ratzz when they lose a game.
                                                      Ratzz whats gonna happen when the lakers make playoffs? your not gonna kill urself right?
