4th seed? 3rd seed? You guys are reaching.

If you're talking a 54 win season that means they go 45-15 from here on out, yeah, not so sure that's happening.

I'll hope for 7th, but if it stays as is, 8th or 9th isn't that much of an improbability.

From what I've seen on the court so far from the Lakers this season, I can't with any confidence say that they will even make the playoffs.

Sad, but this season could easily become a darker spot in Lakers history than the '04-'05 season...

we all know that what weve seen on the court is not playoff basketball.

Big 4s are OVERRATED. you think Nash/Kobe/Dwight cant carry the whole Offensive load!?

Considering the odds that another significant injury will happen between now and the playoffs, I'm not feeling very confident we would place any higher than sixth...

You're damn right I need to see it to believe it. This team hasn't given me any reason to believe in them yet...

I know i said previously they would be a #5 seed. I take my vote back....they're not even going to make it to the 8th seed given if they keep with same roster.

Dwight is 100% or at least 90%. I'm tired of those excuses. 2 of the top 10 players in the game on the same team yet they lose to the likes of the Cavs & Magic lol...

ya hes almost 90..but ,the rest of the team sucks bro,,,,and i refuse to believe dwights healthy as long as we're giving up way too many offensive rebounds, and dwights not getting that many offensive boards himself... sometimes worse case scenario happens, that just means it was possible,,with only 2 good players on a team,,its possible to lose alot of games..

I think we'll end up as a 6th seed behind OKC, Clips, Spurs, Memphis and perhaps even Golden State. Really, as long as we make the playoffs i dont really care.
