Lakers Blew Out the Warriors 119-103. LA Is Tied for 4th — And the West Is Pure Chaos.
The Lakers needed this one badly, and they got it in emphatic fashion. LA demolished Golden State 119-103 on Prime Video to pull even with the Rockets for the 4th seed in the West.
The game was competitive through halftime (53-49 Lakers), but LA pulled away in the third and never looked back. The Warriors, locked into the 10-seed play-in spot, had nothing to play for — and it showed.
For the Lakers, everything is on the line this weekend. They're tied with Houston at the 4-5 line, and the difference between the 4th seed and the 5th seed could mean home court in the first round. With 14 of 20 playoff seeds still up for grabs and just two days left in the regular season, the Western Conference is pure chaos.
