What our Post expert thinks about Lakers vs. Rockets<\/p>\n

The Western Conference standings are fascinating. At the very top, the Thunder and Spurs have a significant lead on the rest of the conference in terms of record. The bottom three teams in the play-in range \u2014 Clippers, Warriors, and Trail Blazers \u2014 are hovering around .500. <\/p>\n

The teams in the middle, including the Lakers and Rockets, are all packed tightly next to one another \u2014 only three games separate the Lakers in third place and the Suns in seventh. <\/p>\n

The Lakers and Rockets specifically have managed to outplay their glaring flaws all season, but they are still present. The Lakers have the eighth-best defense among teams in the West and the Rockets have the fifth-worst offense in the conference.<\/p>\n
