Los Angeles Lakers MISSING PIECE Pending MAJOR UPDATE After Allstar Break ft. Jarred Vanderbilt

The Los Angeles Lakers appear to be hitting their stride at nearly the perfect time and they’ll have the opportunity to extend their hot stretch against the Golden State Warriors Thursday night following All-Star break last season we saw this Lakers Corp really lock in to finish the season

Strong working their way from the 13am seed prior to All-Star break all the way up to the Western Conference Finals but can the current n seated leakers generate similar results with 26 games left in the regular season along with a 30 and 26 record realistically the Leaguers could guess ties the fifth seed

Which would currently have them matched up against the reigning Champs the fourth seated Denver Nuggets who the Lakers would be wise to avoid as PR of the long game in hopes of another team knocking them out ahead of time the reality is the Lakers are much better

Suited against the three other teams in the upper tier of the Western Conference those teams being the Minnesota Timberwolves the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers all are fantastic teams but at the very least the Lakers would have more than a puncher chance against unlike with the

Denver Nuggets whove swept them in the past postseason season and continue to extend their dominance over the Lakers throughout the season to be clear though that’s under assumption this roster continues to build upon the positive momentum they’ve built so far in combination of the gradual return of

Players coming off the injury list more specifically no players returns more important than that of Jared Vanderbilt but before we dive into why pending news this upcoming week post All-Star break we’ll either make or break the Lakers from being seen as a deep title Contender be sure to let me know down in

The comment section below between the Minnesota timber wolves Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers which team would you rather the Los Angeles Lakers face in the first round although fans may feel this Lakers teams far more talented than the 30 and 26 record which they currently hold

Objectively things are only about to get worse post All-Star break especially in the first half of it as the Lakers will be facing top tier teams such as the Los Angeles Clippers Denver Nuggets Oklahoma City Thunder Milwaukee Bucks Minnesota Timberwolves and a bunch of Highly talented rosters in between such as the

Golden State Warriors along with the Phoenix Suns all in a matter of a 15 game span on the bright side the Lakers have a proven track record of stepping up to the plate against a leite competition and it’s actually their lack of respect for lower tier teams that

Often lead to disappointing upsets with that said if the Lakers continue to hover around 500 during the stretch they’ll more than likely continue to be a playing Team possibly even end up in the worst position possible as the temp seed having to face a single elimination game against the Warriors who are

Currently on their heels the only savior to this all is the return of Jared Vanderbilt and indicates the Lakers the sooner the better this revamp Lakers team has often been seen as offensive Juggernaut teams have not been able to contain but the lack of elite perimeter defense remains their biggest vulnerability Jared Vanderbilt’s

Currently scheduled to be re-evaluated following All-Star break which would be next week and fans should be crossing their fingers that Jared Vanderbilt’s able to return with at least 10 games left in the regular season in order to get his legs under himself again a dozen games with would probably be the bare

Minimum to get Jared vanderbel up and running again and once that happens this Lakers team would truly be the elite two-way team the coaching staff had envisioned when putting this roster together this past summer even in a worst case scenario where the Lakers fall to the temp seed with their backs

Against the wall having a fully healthy Jared Vanderbilt supplementing Anthony Davis’s outer worldly defense would be a huge confidence booster should it come down to a single elimination game so let me know down in the comment section below what seed in the Western Conference do you predict the Lakers

Will finish in the regular season and on top of that which current top four Western Conference team would you like to see the Lakers face in the first round the Minnesota Timberwolves Oklahoma City Thunder Los Angeles Clippers or Denver Nuggets but that’s it for the video take it easy

Guys a million like yeah 10 year olds nah 10 year olds not going and NBA hisory one NBA player Kobe well I was for the Olympics but like in in a season in a season uh Kobe for sure yeah um I think just 17 win the MVP uh in New

Orleans 52 um and then advice for the young guys that get ready to play a lot of minutes cuz the old guys probably not not going to play as much one rule to the NBA oh man I don’t know I think I kind of like the rules how they are now I

Mean I think it’s very simple um the game is it’s uh faster paced um so I like the rules that they implemented now and the rules that we have now and how does that the rules you have to ask him I don’t know thoughts on the what all the Olympics yeah

Um are you going to go am I going to go uh I want make a cameo to uh no no I told uh I told the the USA committee whoever called me that uh if they ask me to go I’ll I’ll go coaching coaching now I’ll play I’ll play

Uh I got to talk to the coaching staff you know luckily I had fch in New Orleans so may have a good relationship but uh I’ll talk to you know the coaches and kind of figure out the minutes but I mean I want to play enough to you know

Obviously you know get a fans what they want um but at the same time you know no one wants to come out of here banged up and and going back into the season and I was GNA say an an uh I think the All-Star game is made for

Anthony Edwards like you know um the way he plays uh obviously his personality um he was just just saying that he was probably going to shoot all left-handed throughout the game you know he wanted to make it fun and spice it back up so you know

I think ant probably has a a chance of winning winning MVP um I don’t know I mean feel like we kind of had a same you know I picked up his passing so we can say that who don’t get enough credit uh here go ahead take you to Mommy

Um who don’t get enough credit I don’t know man uh maybe maybe Shay I mean he gets talked about but um maybe not to the extent you know that he should um you know they’re playing great basketball okay so he’s playing great basketball he’s uh obviously

Leading a charge um and a lot of young guys you know and he what he’s doing for the Organization for their team you know that the amount of success that they’re having over the past couple years um you know I think should be recognized a little bit

More at a different level now I’ve been scoring m i mean I think the power is you know to the defense I think guys are still playing defense just the guys are getting better offensively um guys are making crazy shots uh you know the skill set is different you know you still have

Guys who playing great defense is just you know just better offense one of those things where it’s like oh that’s great defense but better o that’s just kind of where the state of the league is right now um I got to go with Steph on that one um uh ridiculous as in

What oh Space Jam Michael Jordan from the freeo line hey best team and best player uh best team uh probably Minnesota and ant you know they’re playing really well and taking this game to another level uh that team is playing really well
