LeBron James threw his team under the bus after their last game, which resulted in a loss to New Orleans who played without Anthony Davis. The Lakers, as of right now, would miss the playoffs and need to go on a run to secure a bid. I think LeBron is poised for a monster game and will show he means what he said, forcing others to elevate. The timing is right as they will travel to Memphis, who has become one of the worst teams in the league at 5-22 over their last 27 games. Memphis has lost four straight allowing 113.5 points per game, so the staple of this team, which has been the defense, is showing signs of giving up as well. Make the play on Los Angeles.
