LeBron James and the “Ghost” of Michael Jordan was the headline as the Los Angeles Lakers kept selling the ponzi scheme of a playoff push against the Denver Nuggets. The Lakers came into the game 5.5 games of the 8th and final spot.
If any of Los Angeles Lakers fanbase put up any money in this scheme, well all your money is gone, right along with the Lakers playoff chances. Any talk of the Lakers having a chance at this point is the networks trying to sell you a reason to watch this team for the rest of the season.
