When the Los Angeles Lakers have been healthy or almost fully healthy this season, they’ve been a pretty good, and at times a really good team. Between the time Tyson Chandler joined the squad in early November and LeBron’s groin injury, the team went 16-8. That may not be an elite winning percentage (especially given they had a somewhat favorable schedule during that time), but it’s close.
Since the self-proclaimed GOAT and Rajon Rondo both went out though, they’ve been just 5-8. Let’s be real, the Lakers without those two, as Chick Hearn would’ve said back in the day, probably couldn’t beat the sisters of mercy.
