team. 20. It pains me to not stick the Los Angeles Lakers as low as possible in these power rankings, but alas, somehow this dreadful team has won three straight games. Kobe Bryant has put up somewhat respectable numbers over his last 12 games, as well, scoring 19 points per game on 41 percent shooting, and 32.9 percent from long range. These aren’t remarkable numbers, but they aren’t the historically bad numbers that he had been posting over the first two thirds of the season or so. That said, the Lakers won the last two games without him, so take that for what it’s worth. He’s not good, and the Lakers are terrible.. 8-28. Previous: 29th. Los Angeles Lakers. 27
