I know a bunch of people are saying the Lakers are going to win over 65 games and walk their way to the Finals. Does everyone forget when the Mavs won 67 games two years ago and lost in the first round? Just because you have the best record in the regular season doesn't mean you're automatically going to win the championship. Want further proof? Go ask the Patriots.

I can only hope those faggots get owned by the Kings in the first round. It would renew this great rivalry.

I can't stand the Patriots, that's why I brought them up when it comes to regular season success not translating to a championship. God damn some people on here are idiots.

Are you seriously trying to correlate both teams because they crapped out during the Finals? If the Lakers do have their playoff run cut short, it would be for vastly different reasons.

I'm comparing them because having the best record is not some code that grants you access to the finals let alone a championship. Anyone remember the 116 win Mariners?

I lol'd but Kobe is easily one of the top three players in the entire sport if not the best. He's just not on Jordan's level like some shitheads(Jemele Hill) claim.

The 2008 Pats were a team on its last legs.

The 2008-2009 Lakers are a team entering into its prime.

The oldest player is only 32, and that's D.Fisher. The median age is under 27.

The Lakers are going to win because they have the deepest and most talented roster on the court.

i guess he played against a team with THREE bonafide hall of fame superstars and won while lacking both a very important center and a healthy small forward

Silly comparison, The Mavs were lead by Dirk Nowitzki, nuff said.

The bench showed how flawed it was last year. If you really think that pansy Odom, Farmar, and some garbage euros are ever an answer to winning a game, then it's not even worth debating. Shit, I'll take that Pow guy who shit on you last year over any of them.

Also, Jordan would have still beat the Celtics

All we heard last year was how deep the Lakers' bench was. But they got their asses beat by Leon Powe and James Posey. Pathetic.

Also the Warriors kick ass.... except against any other team =\

Also last year the Lakers went to the finals without Bynum, if he stays healthy this year with their other key players, there should be reason for people thinking they can "walk" their way to the finals

Yeah, they'd only have that if Kobe Bryant were able to play every position. The Trailblazers have the deepest roster, they have good players at virtually every position. Before you HURRRRR HURRRR ODEN LOLZ at me, Pryzbilla is a dominating center, probably one of the best in the league, and is a perfect guy for Oden to back up. Besides, what other team has more than 1 7 footer that can shoot 3s? (Aldridge, Frye)

Oh lol, then the LAKURZ must really suck if it takes Kobe scoring 81 points for the lakers to win 122-104 and for the lakers to come from behind. That = Lakers are a bunch of fucking scrubs unless Kobe's playing.
