Lakers take that one.  Then they face probably the Suns which they can match up well.

Eclipsing Oscar Robertson’s triple double record is a huge deal IMO.  Russ can go on to set a triple double record that may never be broken.
Big O's record broken today. I really thought that was a forever record (much like a lot of Wilt's records). Nabilib na ako sobra the first year Westbrook averaged a triple double for an entire season, kaya pinalitan ko tuloy avatar ko to give him props. Now he's done it multiple times. Mind blowing...

Now that's going to be the new forever record. He'll probably add another 50+ to the total, by the time he's done.

Ganda ng laban. THT redeemed himself nicely there. The Lakers are still likely to end up 7th but this game was a good confidence-booster for THT.
We deserve better.

kita na sa mukha ni Davis na naasar na sya eh. Ilang offensive possessions sa OT eh di sya nakahawak ng bola. Puro THT hahahaha  May reason naman coz when AD was at the post waiting for the pass, he was doubled by THT's man that's why THT was able to penetrate repeatedly and eventually fire up that uncontested three ball at the end of OT.

At 20 years old....many teams are already looking forward in clearing up a roster spot for THT.  If he signs a 2+1 deal with the Lakers this off season, he will eventually hit the market again for a possible huge payday at age 22-23 and by then,  barring any injury he would have matured even more and possibly add more to his already impressive skill set. 

For me...its a big ask for him to distribute the ball and do heavy minutes doing point guard duties.  He is a finisher and he is at his best at shooting guard.

Wouldn't it be best for the Suns or Jazz to have the Lakers finish at #6 instead? That way they avoid the Lakers in the first round.  If the Lakers end up in the play in mini tournament and they finish #7 or #8 then they have a first round series with either Suns or Jazz.

Nice game Kuzma!

Bumawi na naman si THT sa kapalpakan nya, pumasa na naman sa opponent, buti naka agaw ng bola kay Olynik  :-[ :D

Kakahiya Lakers kung natalo pa kanina sa Rockets.

Actually si Matthews ang naka tap ng bola from Olynik. Napunta lang sa harap ni THT.

Kuzma with the lay up nag naka salba din.

Portland loses to Phoenix. Next game for Portland is Denver. Another loss there and coupled with 2 highly possible LA Laker wins (NO and IND) then the Lakers will avoid the Play In Mini Tournament. 

Personally I'd like them to participate in the Play In so that early in the playoffs it will set a sense of urgency.

The Lakers can’t control their guaranteed play-off spot anymore - they can only hope Denver beats Portland on Sunday.

Seems unlikely for LAC to lose their last two games (HOU, OKC), so they should end no lower than the 3rd seed, with DEN becoming the 4th seed. Still possible for LAC to finish with the same record as PHX and go up to 2nd (LAC owns the tiebreaker over PHX). But PHX will wrap up the season with back-to-back games against SAS, who could take it easy since they're already assured of participating in the play-in tournament as the 10th seed.

So DEN can also relax in its final games (DET, POR), since they'll be the 4th seed in all probability (unless LAC tanks in its final games). POR definitely doesn't want another play-in experience so they will go all out in their final game to make sure they get at least the 6th seed.

EDIT: Looks like LAC isn’t aiming for the 3rd seed. Starters were rested against HOU today so, as expected, it was a loss which drops them to 4th - which is where they’ll end up if they lose again in their final game against OKC. Likely to face DAL again in the first round.

Meanwhile, DEN has no plans to rest Jokic to help him with his MVP bid, which makes their final game against POR worth watching.

Not sure about the early exit part if Denver vs Lakers.  The Lakers this year aren’t playing as well as last year’s Lakers.

Murray and Barton's absence will be a huge handicap if they face the Lakers in a 7 game series.  Aaron Gordon still looks lost in their system. For them to win they need the Joker and MPJ to come up big every night.

Last day of the regular season tomorrow, with several games still having key playoff implications:

Eastern Conference:

CHA @ WAS (both 33-38): Winner gets the 8th seed and plays BOS in the play-in. Loser faces IND in the 9/10 play-in game.

BOS @ NYK (40-31), HOU @ ATL (40-31), MIA (39-32) @ DET: If NYK wins, they get the 4th seed even if ATL wins bec of the tiebreaker held by the Knicks.
 
If MIA wins and ends up with the same record as both NYK and ATL, the three-way tiebreaker rule gives ATL the 4th seed, MIA the 5th seed and NYK the 6th seed. If MIA wins and ends up with the same record as ATL only, ATL gets the 5th seed while MIA gets the 6th seed. On the other hand, if MIA wins and ends up with the same record as NYK only, MIA gets the 5th seed while NYK gets the 6th seed.

If MIA loses, it will be locked as the 6th seed.

CLE @ BKN (47-24), MIL (46-25) @ CHI: MIL owns the tiebreaker and gets the 2nd seed in case they win and BKN loses. A BKN win locks them as the 2nd seed.

Western Conference:

MEM @ GSW (both 38-33): Winner gets the 8th seed for the play-in. Loser faces SAS in the 9/10 play-in game.

DEN @ POR (41-30), LAL (41-30) @ NOP, DAL (42-29) @ MIN: A POR win relegates LAL to the play-in as the 7th seed, whether or not LAL wins. But a POR loss and a LAL win switches their seedings, with POR ending up as the 7th seed in the play-in and LAL getting the 6th seed even if DAL loses.

A DAL win or a POR loss locks DAL as the 5th seed. A DAL loss and a POR win gives POR the 5th seed and DAL the 6th seed, even if LAL wins.

DEN (47-24) @ POR, LAC (47-24) @ OKC: DEN owns the tiebreaker and gets the 3rd seed in case both DEN and LAC win or if both DEN and LAC lose.

PHX (50-21) @ SAS, UTA (51-20) @ SAC: PHX owns the tiebreaker and gets the 1st seed in case they win and UTA loses. A UTA win locks them as the 1st seed.

Watched the Laker game today vs IND.  LBJ looking good. AD and Drummond combo looks like a huge problem for many teams.

Looking forward to the play in tournament.
