Hello, Lakers Nation. Welcome to the Lakers Nation.com live postgame show presented by prize picks.

I'm Trevor Lane. The Lakers absolutely dominate the Utah Jazz as expected. Final score 131.107.

The Lakers, a walk in the park against Utah, finished the season with 53 wins.

And the Lakers put up 53 wins.

Fairly impressive stuff there from L.A.

Rockets in round one of the playoffs. The Denver Nuggets had they lost to the Spurs? Well, then the

Lakers would be the three seed and would be taken on the Minnesota Timberwolves. Instead, the Lakers will be the four seed and draw the Rockets.

Now you've got to see Denver in round two of the play.
