The Los Angeles Lakers are on a hot streak, winning nine of their last 10 games. However, due to the Wild Wild West, they remain in the ninth spot. Five games are remaining and they sit behind the Sacramento Kings and New Orleans Pelicans. The Kings have the tie-breaker of the purple and gold, leaving their hope in their hands and the Pelicans' play. Nick Wright breaks down the ideal playoff path for the Lakers and emphasizes the importance of jumping into the No. 8 or 7 seed.
