The Lakers have a gap, and they fumbled the chance to fix it.
The Los Angeles Lakers are a very, very good team — that much is certain, but as we draw closer to the NBA Playoffs this team is looking much more like one that could see its run end in the Western Conference Finals, at best.
When it comes to big men at the top of the conference the Thunder have Chet Holmgren, the Rockets boast Alperen Şengün, the Nuggets have the incomparable Nikola Jokic.
