The Lakers are rolling....

Don't look now but the Lakers have been on fire since the all-star break winning 17 of 18 games to pull within 1.5 games of the Spurs for the #1 seed in the West. If they keep playing like this they will be very tough to beat in a 7 game series.....

What makes it sweeter is that they aren't laying down in games when they trail big, like they did earlier on in the year. They were down 17 in Utah last night and fought back to win. When the will is there, I agree, the Lakers are going to be a tough out.

Have to disagree with you Dave. Barring injury I can't see them not winning the West. I don't see any series going past 6. The current team might be playing better than the 2 previous championship teams as Bynum is becoming more of a factor in the post.....

Who can beat the Lakers from West? I think Portland would give them the toughest series, maybe Memphis can hang

Just don't think Spurs, Mavs, Nuggets or Thunder can beat them.

Not one to bump threads. But when someone is rude to me can make an exception.
