The Lakers haven't exited the playoffs in the first round in five years. They exited in the first round in 2006 and 2007, and failed to make the playoffs in 2005. Prior to that, a conference semis appearance and three straight titles. They've won two championships in the past four years, and been runners up once during that period as well.
What the
fuck are you whinging about?
What the FUCK is your problem? 5 years ago is not 10, 15 or 30. My point, which you would have caught if u weren't such an ass looking for something to comment on was - with Kobe leading the way, scoring 40's like he did from 2005-2007 - Lakers were NOT successful. Kobe was, but Lakers were not. Of course, this team is much better, but still, if we get like a 3-5 seed - we can be out in the first round, looking at how competitive some "bad" teams got recently.
PDub's point makes sense, but what i'm afraid of is Kobe gettin hurt at a tough stretch. Those losses can pile up, we can be looking at .500 record this year. So many things have to go right for us to contend this year.
Looking at all these recent wins - it's cool, of course, but the BIG PICTURE isn't that great
