lakers look human again

[Amphatoast]

A week ago it seemed like noone could stop the Lakers and they just seemed unbeatable and locked onto getting the championship but now after tonights lost to the Blazers, they finally look human again. I hope someone new rises up from the west. Hopefully a animal like the Grizzlies or t'wolves

Obviously the Lakers are far from being done, but it does prove that they can be beaten even with their four superstars in the lineup. The Lakers winning the title isn't a sure thing. It may take a tremendous effort, but one of the other Western Conference powers could knock them out of the playoffs. I don't see an Eastern team winning 4 out of 7 against them in the Finals though.

I dont know about any eastern team not beating the lakers. Yes the Lakers are unbelievable with their big four on the court. But if you look at the Pacers who have the best record in the league they might be able to pull off an upset. They have been strong and consistent all year round and if you look at the team chemistry they have, it seems like they are unbeatable.

lakers look human again

why do they look like aliens!!!!!

i think any team can win against lakers but they cant beat the lakers when the championship is on the line.

against the west sacrament and san antonio will give a goo fight against lakers and at east only one team and that will be detroit

the lakers are by no means invincible and i think the spurs displayed many of their weaknesses, but i wouldnt get too optimistic yet since it was only 2 regular season games.

and when the championship is on the line the spurs have already shown the lakers can lose and i think the west is so concentrated that any team in the top 7 west has at least a glimmer of a chance of upsetting a top seed whether it be the lakers, kings or spurs. the playoffs will be interesting. in the east, detroit is looking very dangerous.
