I'm just ranting.
I'm thinking a loss by THEM, we keep winning....
What do we have to do to get BSPN's recognition?

To be fair the Celtics have looked equally as impressive, if not better than us this year. They're on the same pace as they were last year, they're tough, and they're strong defensively.
I don't think you can put us solidly ahead of them 'til we whoop them in a game.

We don't need their recognition. They should be trying to get our recognition. :lol:

I know the East has gotten' stronger, but I'd still argue overall, we've played a higher number of better teams than them.To be fair the Celtics have looked equally as impressive, if not better than us this year.

Some of this guys on ESPN don't know what they talk about most of the time anyway. I really don't need power rankings to know that my Lakers are the best team in the NBA.

Uh, the same ESPN where almost all their analysts picked us to win Boston?
Please stop. Stop creating illusions of 'world against me' attitude. It's completely false and unwarranted.

Many of the ESPN analysts dont know what they are talking about.
But it really doesn't bother me, because winning is the only thing that matters. What ESPN says or thinks doesnt matter. Every other NBA team KNOWS what the Lakers are about this year, and thats what matters.
I think the Lakers have PLENTY OF RECOGINITION over the last few years when it has come to Shaq/Kobe fighting, Shaq being traded, Kobe's trial, Lakers being in the lottery, Kobe talking crap about Bynum, Kobe demanding a trade, the list goes on.
Come the playoffs, the Lakers will get the right recognition that we recieved during the 3-peat.

We haven't.
