I told yall the Lakers would go 9-5 in December, and I also told yall that we'd take some L's to good teams. It happens, it's the NBA, everybody but the '96 Bulls and '16 Warriors lose...
Lakers have dominated the first 2½ months of the season and enter the new year still at first in The West, despite some tough losses. 12 of their games this month was versus other current playoff teams, Lakers went 7-5. For perspective, Clips only went 4-4 versus current playoff teams in December (also 9-5 overall with one game left)...
Lakers will be fine, some of you guys gotta remain level headed in the tougher L's. Still need a reliable 3rd option as well as another wing defender, but as long as they healthy, Lakers still have as good a chance to win the whole thing as anybody...
