38 over the Clippers.

20 over the Blazers.

This shit is boring.

Give us the fucking title already.

Every fucking player on our team is good. Seriously, Chris Mihm, our third unit starter had 10 points against a supposedly good Kaman. Mihm could probably start on a lot of teams.

Sasha and Farmar would be starting for 70% of teams out there.

Ariza is a fucking beast.

Walton has the knowledge and passing ability.

Odom seems to be enjoying playing with the second unit and is getting the same minutes.

Gasol is relaxed.

Kobe is just fucking sailing along.

Fisher is a veteran and doing all the right shit.

Rad Vlad just hits 3's over and over.

And then there is that Powell guy, and he can...like slam dunk, I guess.

Oh, and BYNUM WILL BE A BEAST.

Yeah, give us the title.

Here are some quotes from Basketball Prospectus. . .

"In SCHOENE's eyes, there are the Los Angeles Lakers and then there is everyone else. The Lakers project as far and away the league's most dominant team. In the 1,000 runs of the simulation I've used to generate records (more on this next week), they made the playoffs every time and won the Pacific Division 990 times."

"I would be comfortable starting any of their top 10 players. The only positions at which the Lakers do not have the versatility to go at least three deep are center (where Josh Powell is undersized, and DJ Mbenga and Chris Mihm are stopgaps at best) and point guard (where Sun Yue is still far away from contributing)."

"Farmar gets lost at times because the Lakers have so many good players That should not happen. He's more than ready to step in, when Derek Fisher shows his age, and be a solid starter at the point."

"Of Dean Oliver's Four Factors of Basketball Success, the Lakers project to be league average or better on all four on offense and three of the four on defense."

Shaq is old.

We have Bynum, Odom, Gasol, Kobe, Farmar, Fisher, Sasha...

etc etc etc

Every player on our bench could probably start in the league somewhere.

LAKERS HAVE NO CHEMISTRY

Somebody WILL get hurt. Kobe and/or Lamar and/or/ Pau will get pissed about not getting the ball. Some shit will go down.

This team will probably win the West in the regular season, but I wouldn't put a dime on them to win jackshit in the playoffs.

If the Kobe is healthy all season long, this team better win 70 games.

This is the best roster anyone has seen since the 60's, and they better not take it for granted.

He's right. Michael would do pretty well against this team, but Pippen and Rodman would get raped.

The 2008 Lakers are a deep team that has a ten man rotation. And that ten man rotation actually has useful players. This team can win 65 games, and the first seed, which is their goal. Now if they could only get rid of VladRad...

The real question is: how many games would the Lakers' second team win?

50? They'd easily be the best in the East.

With an injured player, lost to the best team in the league in the Finals.

I'll take that. Not this year, but I'd take it last year.

i want to know who the lakers will lose to. will it be some low tier team like the bucks who beats them? maybe on a night when none of the lakers give a shit and slip up mentally throughout the game, losing by a few points.

or will it be to boston again, or maybe the hornets/rockets? id rather they lose to some shitty team on an off night when they dont care or take the opposition seriously.

i remember the lakers with shaq did that a lot. it was frustrating to see them lose to the lowly teams at the time, but in the end they won championships so... no big deal.

>Mihm could probably start on a lot of teams.
did you read what you wrote? you can't be serious

>Sasha and Farmar would be starting for 70% of teams
no really, did you read what you wrote? look over the starting back court of every NBA team again and punch yourself in the face

>Ariza is a fucking beast.
he jumps high and plays defense. other that, he is a liability on offense. you must have low standards if that's what you consider beast

>Fisher is a veteran and doing all the right shit.
he is also old and slow and can't keep up with the faster guards of the league

>Oh, and BYNUM WILL BE A BEAST.
well, we've already established that your definition of beast is retarded

>Yeah, give us the title.
yeah, they clearly deserve the title after two games of beating substandard teams. fuck, just cancel the regular season

in summation, this thread is why people hate laker fans.
