This year's Lakers are a much better team than that of the previous three seasons. It's been apparent to most fans around the country that Lakers stand a good chance of taking out most of their Western opposition in the playoffs, possibly even going to the Finals.
However, advancing past the Conference Finals will hinge on the health of one 20 year old, baby-faced giant in Andrew Bynum.
Fans of other NBA teams frequently bash Laker fans on this issue. They believe Bynum is overrated, and the reason he recieves so much love is that he plays on a big market team. That the kid will be nothing more than a Chris Kaman, Brad Miller. That he's injury prone. That even with a healthy Bynum, Lakers would not stand a chance against the Spurs or Celtics.

Hopefully Bynum can contribute this year, I can't wait to see him and Gasol, both healthy and at full strentgh, but that will probably have to wait until next season. Lakers are back!!!

I like how the author includes October's stats and said how much he improved on them... There was only one game in October
Good read though, although I don't really think it talked about anything new.
Wrong

Dirk will be 30 next year. Not 31.
Good luck to your team tonight guys and chica's. Should be a good game.
Prediction: Mavs 101 Lakers 92

I believe he is the most underrated player in the league. He is currently the 3rd best center in the league and I am not convienced that Oden if healthy will be better then Bynum.
