Superb analysis. Needs to be published at The Athletic.

Yep. Yesterday's news, but Lebron is expected to be out 4+ weeks. Without Lebron and AD, the Lakers are going to drop in the standings. Probably they'll end up in the 6th or 7th seed, something like this:

1 - Jazz
2 - Suns
3 - Clippers
4 - Nuggets
5 - Blazers
6 - Lakers
7 - Mavs
8 - Spurs

Dude, I reckon they’re falling further than 6th.

Maybe 7th. They could lose 10 games straight and still only drop 5 or 6 games on the Spurs or Mavs, since those are near .500 teams. It depends on how many games Lebron misses.
