Lakers+USC=#1
Fuck CBS
Bk that is.
Bk, last time I checked, the playoffs were about matchups, I dont give a damn about all those stats. They mean little when it comes to playoffs.
Not really, those same experts saw the Lakers in the finals too. The Lakers don't even match up well with the Spurs either.
Lakers cannot defend the pick and roll. Spurs would have ate them alive with or without Kobe.
What else is new, the Lakers cant defend the pick n roll for 13 years now.
The Bulls have been more injury plagued than the Lakers I don't think that is debatable, but the Bulls are coached well and play with heart and passion. The Lakers are not coached well and don't play with heart.
How many games total did the Lakers top 2 players miss?
Howard and Bryant were there pretty much all year long.
Because it was obvious that even with Kobe the Spurs were going to beat the Lakers
Whats new is that they didnt have a chance to win more than 1 or 2 against the Spurs. Usually they had enough scoring and defense in other areas to at least make it a toss up.What else is new, the Lakers cant defend the pick n roll for 13 years now.
The Spurs are too quick and too potent offensively and the Lakers defense was straight up horrible. The ONLY way the Lakers would have won was if Howard dominated and he can't post up to save his life. The Lakers were horrible defensively this year, how do you figure they would have beaten the Spurs who are one of the best offensive teams in the league?

Prove they could win. Your just going by what you feel as well. None of this is factual its all opinions.
Prove they couldnt win more than 2. Oh yeah, you cant because Kobe didnt play. My point exactly. You guys are going by what yall think, instead of facts.
Lakers fans make the biggest excuse makers.
I'm sure the Lakers would have won a title with Kobe
I dont agree they are a flop. They barely missed that designation but they werent winning more than 2 games against Spurs with or without Kobe.Ok, I get it, Kobe not being there doesnt mean anything. I guess im making excuses because I said you cant call a team a flop because their best player got hurt and they didnt get a chance to show what they can do in the playoffs.
