In the Play-In Tournament race, the Los Angeles Lakers have pulled away from the Golden State Warriors a little bit, taking a 1.5-game advantage over their Western Conference rivals going into the final game on March 24.
In seventh and eighth place, respectively, the Lakers are still three games behind the Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks. According to Tankathon, they also have a more difficult remaining strength of schedule than Golden State and Dallas.
But in LeBron James’ perspective, that has no bearing on their strategy.
The outcome of their final regular season match on April 9 might have a big impact on the postseason.
