It's like the teams ahead of us are TRYING to get us into the playoffs. Too bad I don't have any faith in winning any of these next few games

[TKainZero]

Lakers have the worst record in the NBA over the last 10 games...

2-8 over the last 10 games...



this team is not just bad, but they are getting worse!

[noknife]

I saw a stat of what they are since the playoffs started last season. Shocking. Their hands are tied though. Gotta just tough out a bad season or two and get Kobe out of here and get some young talent to build with.

Why would you want to get a top 5 player off your team?

Top 3.

Because he doesn't think we can win another chip with Kobe apparently

[LakeShow805]

Top 3.

I got Lebron, Durant and CP3 ahead of him

We're tied with Portland now, finally.


Portland lost today to New Orleans which makes them 25 - 28

Houston lost too against Clipps which makes them 29 - 26


If we win tomorrow difference between us and Houston comes down to 2.5 games ..


If we make a good run we might catch the 6th spot ( Lakers would be 16.0 and Gstate 11.0)

In a longer run, I think the Lakers will go 7-3 , Rockets the same , jazz 5-5 ..


Jazz probably will fall sooner or later , their schedule is really tough !!

[lakerfan0307]

I really hope the Lakers win tomorrow. I'm tired of moral victories. So far we have yet to make up any ground on these teams ahead of us (with the exception now of Portland). Everytime Houston or Utah loses, we follow it up with a loss.

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

[expletive] yes Rockets lost.

Gotta win tommorow night.

[Saber]

Man we have a tough schedule ahead .. Makes you hate those early season losses to [expletive]ty teams even more ..

[t-1]

Please beat the clippers

I saw a stat of what they are since the playoffs started last season. Shocking. Their hands are tied though. Gotta just tough out a bad season or two and get Kobe out of here and get some young talent to build with.

A lone, sane voice in the wastleand of Kobefiles who cant see past their favorite player to what is best for the team.

Kobe is (present tense) a fantastic offensive player, still decent on defense, much more mature than in years past. Its truly amazing what he is still capable of at age 34. But the odds say it just cant last much longer.

Laker fans, our front office has failed Kobe and us. it has surrounded Kobe with old talent and predicitably hurt guys that are incapable of allowing a great player to make one or two last runs at a title. The FO has failed us by not transitionning well from one star to another, but rather trading for a hurt, cry baby prima donna that embodies everything Kobe and the Laker do NOT stand for and hate.

So, NoKnife's assessment is spot on.

[BasketballIQ]

What young talent. guys like Wilson Chandler and aaron Brroks?

B/c you're not getting the guys who are really winning this year. LeBron, Durant, Chris Paul, and maybe Melo.




We do have one of those guys but THIS isn't his year. Just like this isn't Rose's year( because he is hurt) and maybe Dwight won't bounce back next season, but I think he will. I think the LABRUm is an injury aside the back and it's difficult to express how BIG MAN play in the paint other than just looking at numbers.

[LakersChamps243]

I'm not ready to say we're buried yet. We have the celtics and portland at home right after the break followed by at Dallas which is a game we need in order to get them off our backs in the standings. Houston has OKC at home and then they're at Brooklyn. We're at Denver after the Dallas game which is almost a certain loss so the team needs to go hard for a three game winning streak. Houston hasn't been cooperating with us, but if we win the next two and they lose the next two which will hopefully finally happen, we'll be 1.5 games behind them. They play at Washington next Saturday so that's likely a win and then we play Dallas Sunday so if we get this three game winning streak and they go 1-2 we will be right behind them. Who knows maybe that'll be the optimism this team needs to finally get their heads straight and make a serious push for the eighth seed. I wish next week was here already [expletive] the allstar game.

Last night took a lot of wind out of our hopes.

If we get to #9, then Houston might tighten up a bit. We will see how Harden's ankle responds.
