Is this Lakers team the greatest ever?

[uva3021]

the Western conference was as strong as its ever been this year, and the Lakers have strolled through with the 2nd greatest player ever (Kobe obv)

i think they have to be considered

joking right?

Next years lakers team should challenge the regular season win record

Hard to say best team ever considering those Laker teams of the 80's. But if you look at the numbers since Gasol arrived, they finished the season 27-9 and are now 12-3 in the playoffs, for a combined record of 39-12 for winning % of .764 which would be on pace for a 63 win season (playing in a very difficult western conference). So my thought is, it's the best Lakers team of this decade, better than the 3 previous title teams earlier this decade. Just too hard to compare to those teams in the 80's.

Next year however, I think the Lakers team is poised for something truely amazing. With the addition of Bynum, and more growing from these younger Laker players, next year Lakers team could cement themselves as one of the greatest teams ever (obviously barring any major injuries).

yeah.....right. Silly post dude.

No way... This team has proved nothing.
Calling them one of the greatest ever is a huge stretch stats or not.
I remember this question being asked about the Heat team of a few years ago.

Really, as much as i dislike them one of the greatest teams ever was the spurs teams of the last few years.. being from SA hurt the nation recognition they should have had.

Greatest ever?

I'd say the bulls between 90 and 97.

Someone should title this thread:

"Is this the dumbest question of all time?"

Maybe then I would concur.
