This should be made into a sticky with the way their season is going.

Should be a frightening team with Nash and Pau come back.  Season is 82 games long.  That team is ridiculous on paper.

This team is too top heavy. Can't play defense. And doesn't have the role players to fit the system.

Dwight does not run the floor and is not as skilled as Amare. He can't pick and pop. Kobe HAS to have the ball. Nash HAS to have the ball. Gasol can't play in this system either.

D'Antoni ain't changing the system. Without a shake up to the roster this team won't win the West. Too many good teams that match up with their bigs and have a PG that can give Nash trouble.

Memphis. Clippers. Thunder. All can play with Durant and Gasol. Spurs can get this team too. Pop owns D'Antoni.

Still pushing that whole "lakers will turn it around before the Celtics" theme huh? Haha

I wish this was with two months left in the season and not the start of it. They can and probably will turn this around in the end. I don't think they'll win it all however.

Even if LA makes the playoffs , they have always depended on the homecourt advantage to win the series.

With no homecourt  possible barring a miracle , LA doesn't have a prayer of winning it all this year...the hole is too deep to deep to gain homecourt..
