    I guess it is not a far stretch now to say the Lakers could go far in the playoffs. The West has looked very uneven and weak at times.

    Lonzo's dad gets threats all the time about him and his son. Threatening a move of venue is not something Lonzo's dad would respond to. I'm sure someone in Lebron's camp threatened him. but with what? with who!? with what amount of violence?

    SACRILEGIOUS!!!

    I used to hate the Thunder above everything. This year all I have room to hate in my heart is the Rockets record.

    Have to keep the Lakers out of transition. They will beat a lot of teams just out running them.

    Lebron is so good. Will be sad when he retires. Nobody like him. Zion isn’t even close. There won’t ever be another Lebron. There sorta was another Jordan aka Kobe... but Lebron? Nah, never.

    Now with that said, the Lakers will get far. But if they meet us or the Warriors in the playoffs, count the Lakers out.

    It's crazy that Lebron is still this good at this age. He's almost 34 years old. Wasn't Kobe still getting crazy stats at age 34 as well? I guess only the all-time greats can do it. Others, meanwhile.....

    Pretty much the only players who didn't drop-off significantly around or after 34 are Duncan, Kareem, Parrish, Nash, MJ, Reggie Miller, Kidd, Stockton, and everyone's least favorite Mailman.

    Lebron pours 50 millions into his body, who does that, who is willing to sacrifice luxury?

    Kobe was a sociopath of a player, just methodical n intense discipline.

    Ingram has to keep playing big for them, answer for his starting role.

    Also Kuz has to step up more.

    Shaqtin a fool McGee has surprised me so far.

    14 ppg 7 rpg on FG 63% 2.9 Blocks per game? Third best in the league after Whiteside and AD.

    If it wasn't for the achilles I firmly believe that Kobe would still be playing today

    The next 60 games will tell us a tremendous (er) amount on the postseason.

    Warriors face no real contenders in their next 67 games + playoffs. :D

    Agree, West is garbage. Golden State (huge huge gap) and everyone else.

    How's everyone's favorite as the new #2 (Utah) looking?

    Portland?
    Denver?
    OKC?
    Memphis?
    LA?
    LAC?
    Kings?
    Spurs?
    Jazz?
    Pelicans?
    Rockets?
    Mavs?
    Timberpups?
    Suns?

    Maybe a 2nd threat will emerge but right now? Nope.

    I still have Rockets between Portland and Denver for some reason.

    OKC are more dangerous than Portland in the bigger picture, esp. if Portland brings Melo on board.

    Kobe did not have the durability of lebron. No superstar other than Malone or KAJ is as durable as lebron.
