A turnaround is always possible

[LA_Sports]

I have faith in things turning around, even though they look very bleak right now.

[Kobe System]

YES WE CAN.

im an optimistic guy, i dont care what people say about my favourite teams (or when i play sport), i always believe my team will win the championship, till the very end without any slighty doubts. If the supporter already in losing mentality, how the hell we can expect the players want to win the championship badly ? After all, we're supporters.

This Lakers squad should be more than capable of a great run, like they had 2 seasons ago. Problem is they haven't shown it that they can. At this point, I'll take any playoff seed, but with the team clicking and on a roll than a high seed and will rest players before playoffs. I think that's what happened 2 seasons ago. They stop rolling and ran into a hot Mavs team.

I'm kinda nervous. There's a good chance we miss the playoffs

[Pimpwerx]

This looks highly-unlikely given the injuries they just suffered. It's not gonna help chemistry or performance at all. I think the Lakers look lottery bound this year. PEACE.

making the playoffs when every game is a potential loss?

.500 teams dont make the POs in the west bud

70% missing the playoffs

[NoseBleedLakers]

80% the Lakers miss the playoffs.

Lakers are 0-2 vs Utah, 1-2 vs Houston, 1-2 vs Denver

Overall, they're 9-14 against the West.

oh look, a celtic fan who thinks dwight howard of all people is our problem. great analysis, A+ friend.

you're rite bro, i was wrong, you'll go 49-0 the rest of the season and hopefully finish 64-18

[spudwebb]

lol I'm sure we all do. Shut the haters up but its gonna be tough to even make the playoffs

No we don't. I am sure most of us don't. It's not being a hater but the Lakers just being handed talent and being flooded with money, and getting everything easy takes away a lot from the NBA.

I like that the Lakers are struggling because it means that basketball is as much about making strategic moves and finding the right chemistry of players and coaches than it is about spending the most money, getting ridiculously unfair trades (see Gasol/Kwame, Gasol/CP3), being the destination of choice for douche bag stars (Howard), and stars looking to team up in their twilight years in Hollywood (Nash, Payton, Malone, Richmond).

[GoldKnightRises]

I hope they make the playoffs.
