Hello, Lakers Nation. Welcome into the Lakers Nation.com podcast. I'm Trevor Lane, and it's

game day. We've got Lakers, Pelicans, punch your ticket to the playoffs with a win. A win would get

the Lakers of seventh seed and a first round matchup with the New Orleans. Pelicans. A loss would

mean the, what do you mean the Lakers have to play later this week against potentially the Golden State Warriors

or it could be the Sacramento Kings depending on who wins the other game taking place later tonight.

Joining me is Sean Davis. Sean, big game tonight. Lakers have an opportunity to punch their ticket to the playoffs and land with the seventh seed. I'm excited for this one. I can't wait to do this over on Playback with you. Yeah, it's going to be a ton of fun. Make sure you guys join us over on Playback.tv slash Lakers, we had our biggest audience for the season against New Orleans. So you guys have been awesome and make sure you guys join us for that.

But yeah, it's going to be a great time.

Lakers get the earlier game.

I hate or maybe hates a strong word.

It kind of bothers me how the NBA is doing this schedule for the playing tournament this year.

They have both Western Conference games tomorrow or today, excuse me, and then both East games on.

It's weird.

That's all I'm going to say.

But super, super excited.

And yeah, get the rematch with Pelicans today.

Yeah, rematch today with the Pelicans.

And that's where we're going to start off.

We're also going to spend some time talking about, well, we're going to get into a lot of things.

We'll talk about the Lakers X factors and stuff like that.

We've got some questions coming in from our channel members that we're going to get into. We're also have some things that are coming in from our mailbag. So we'll get into that as well. But I want to start off today's show. Just breaking down tonight's matchup. Now, Sean, I hope there's not overconfidence in the air for the Lakers.

They, look, they beat the hell out of the Pelicans.

That was not close.
