With the Jazz and PHX being back to back. They could realistically end the season with a 3 game losing streak leaving them at 40-32.
Lakers final stretch is:
PHX
NYK
HOU
@IND
@NOP
With the final 2 being back to back. Tough but easier than POR final 4. Should POR lose 3, Lakers need to win 4 out of the 5 to guarantee a 6th finish. Tall order and relies on POR losing out but if Lebron comes back I can see the Lakers making that push.
Mavs need to win out though to make sure POR can't catch up.
Yup, because Portland owns the tiebreaker vs Dallas. Win out, it won't matter.
