Lakers went about .500 in their easiest part of the schedule, losing to the Knicks, Bulls , Timberwolves and Cavs.
The next 6 weeks is the hardest part of the schedule
@Thunder
@Rockets
Warriors

Will be interesting to see how this goes. This LeBron injury is seemingly a bit more worrisome too, it could be 1 to 3 more weeks, but if they slip down the standings I can see him rushing back. After all, he has to try to get to the playoffs to pad his stats out a bit more. There's the risk he aggravates it if he tries to rush though, these groin injuries can linger and sometimes it takes a real stretch or exertion to know if it's truly 100%.
That is a brutal road trip. 2-4 is optimistic.
Edit: 1-4 if you dont count the Clippers game as a road game
