Almost all of those games are winnable, and we have almost entirely home games for the next three weeks. The Lakers better not get lazy or casual like they did last season.

The Lakers are in a dangerous zone, people are gonna expect wins to pile up but a lot of these games aren’t gonna be guaranteed wins, don’t ever over look your opponent and the Lakers tend do that a lot of times

9-8 is the minimum over this stretch. I think they can pretty feasibly win 13

That D'lo revenge game should be fun.

Mavs will surely drop in the standings, Lakers should grab their playoffs spot.

Nice stretch of games, with only TWO back 2 backs... not bad, not bad at all.

12-5

I would be happy with 10-7 or better

Lakers already on 6th spot and Mavs by the way they are playing without Luka are likely to drop to play-in. Time for Lakers to pile up some wins in January, It's a bummer if they didn't.

The rockets and mavs game will be crucial. It will solidify their top 6 position if they will be able to win both. With that i will assume an L for both games, but I will be happy if they win both.

The Lakers' goal must be the get into and hold onto at least fourth place in the Western Conference by the end of this month. They have to aim really high, because if they do, it will drive a positive attitude and work habits.

They can do it. Luka is out for at least a few more weeks, Denver is good but not as good as it was last season and Houston may be a fraudulent regular-season team.
