7-3
Lakers need to be at least 7-3 here if they want to solidify their spot in the Top 6.
Winning against Mavs and OKC is very important because they are also in the Top 6. Cant afford to lose against below .500 teams too. |

| That's a pretty tough schedule. We should be more than happy if they can pull of a 7-3 W/L. |

3-4 freebies in there, but OKC, PHI and DAL will be tough.

I wonder why Detroit is so bad. They have plenty of young talent. That might be a trap game  .
I could see them beat the Sixers then lose to the Pistons.
Oklahoma City could be telling, how they contain Shai. I hope Jarred is back for that one, Cam will get cooked. |

They are last year's Rockets. Talented but very young and no veteran leadership. Like all young teams with a plethora of lottery picks, they don't know how to win or close out games.
Also, Cade's game is dangerously inefficient. He's a natural point forward who is struggling to be the main scoring option for them. He may improve over time, but he has to take better quality of shots.
Jaden Ivey, their lottery pick from last year, is getting the DeAndre Ayton treatment from Monty for not playing defense and zoning out during games. I think Wiseman is as good as gone. He's just not a good fit.
They have a secret weapon, however. Ausur Thompson is going to be their best player and it won't be particularly close. He'll be Ron Artest with an offensive game.

| clippers and suns will gradually crawl into top 6. so lakers must beat okc and mavs if they want to stay in it. I still think Mavs and OKC are not the strong, they just have an easier schedule this early. |

| Gonna be very difficult to get through this stretch if both Cam and Vando are injured. The Lakers need someone to check Luka/Kyrie, Mitchell/Garland, SGA/J-Dub, Maxey, etc. |

| Wow, I see the Lakers play the Mavs, Cavs, and 76ers in the next three games. I'm assuming Cam is out of all of them and then some. I wonder if Vando or Vincent will be back for any of these games. We could really use them. |

McMenamin said on Windhorst's podcast that Gabe Vincent just had some sort of knee draining procedure that could keep him out for quite a while longer. Windhorst responded that the usual timeline for that procedure is usually more like 6-8 weeks. So he won't be back anytime soon. |

okc not tested yet this season. They had an easy schedule. They gomna be tested the next 14 game where they will be facing 11 above .500 teams.
In their 10 wins they've only beaten 3 above 0.500 teams. |

| I don't think the Sixers are as good as their record indicates, so I think we'll win that one. But I have OKC as a guaranteed loss |

A win vs the sixers next game will be a big bonus. |

We have real bad luck with the Miami cast-offs.
They put up great numbers and come here and become gimpy / straight up trash |
