Summary

Tuesday started with some bad news around LeBron James and his injured ankle. L.A.'s star will miss the next two games - at least - after feeling real pain against the Raptors over the weekend. And these aren't just any games, either. Thursday against the Clippers, Friday vs. Portland in games that could go a long way towards determining if the Lakers finish in the 5th, 6th, or dreaded 7th spots in the playoff race. Seven means the play-in mini-tourney, which is a spot nobody wants to be in. The day did improve, though, as A.D. hosted what had to be the among the greatest failed Reddit AMA's in Reddit AMA history, filled with trolls and the type of rampant immaturity we find wildly entertaining. Yes, the hosts are children. All that, and talk of L.A.'s supporting cast. Who do you trust right now? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: LeBron is out. What does it mean for the fight to stay in the top six? Besides the obvious (Davis), who will face the most pressure to play well while James heals? Do the Lakers have the firepower to endure if he misses more than a couple games? SEGMENT 2: Markieff Morris has been godawful of late. Like, catastrophically bad. Can he recover in time to contribute in the way he did last postseason? What about the rest of the supporting cast? Who would you trust to play well once the playoffs come? SEGMENT 3: We break down that most glorious failure of a Reddit AMA, and answer a critically important question raised among the thousands asked: Would you rather fight a Lebron-sized duck, or 100 duck-sized LeBrons?
