The Los Angeles Lakers continue without improvement in the current season and are adding losses in a row, the last being against the Atlanta Hawks with a score of 129 for 121. However, the historic former player of the Los Angeles team, Shaquille O’Neal gave his point of view on the moment of the purple gold and one of his words was that the public has to wait for the playoffs because the Lakers are right where they want .
“What many people don’t understand is that the Lakers are right where they want to be. When you’re older, you tell yourself to wait for the playoffs. So even though they’re not playing great, they’re still in ninth place. If I were them, I don’t want to play Phoenix or Golden State in the first round. I would go for Memphis“Shaquille O’Neal told SportsCasting.com
Those led by Frank Vogel, have fallen to ninth place, after adding their third loss in a row and are now NBA Western Conference first place games. In addition to being one win away from the Los Angeles Clippers and one and a half away from the Minnesota Timberwolves.
“ This is how you think when you are older. When you go up against LeBron or Carmelo, the opponent will play very confused. If I play against someone, I’m not going to go crazy for you as you go crazy for me. But then, when we know what is at stake in the Playoffs, they are right where they want, “concluded the historic former player.
There is still a long way to go and the most successful team in basketball is still looking for the formula to string together enough victories to ensure its presence in a new playoffs. Plus, the important thing right now is keeping LeBron James and Anthony Davis healthy for the rest of the season.
