Meanwhile, I have no idea what to make of the Lakers right now. LeBron has been really good, but is clearly not healthy enough to do the "I'm getting to the rim literally whenever I want" superhero act that he usually pulls in the playoffs (no free throws this past game is a pretty easy tell-tale that he's not driving). Other than him pulling out one of the 40 point wonder-games or AD suddenly becoming healthy, you've gotta think they are done. They just don't have enough guys who are competent offensively to survive without multiple superstars right now. Safe to say that Schroeder and Drummond are costing themselves some hefty amounts of money with their respective vanishing acts...
