I like your thinking. But I'm not sure if we can play that well on the road. I see the guaranteed wins as Miami, Charlotte, Minnesota, New Jersey. So that's 4. I think Atlanta may be a tough one and also Washington. So I'll say 6-3. But I wouldn't be surprised with 5-4 or 4-5.


miami is tanking this year so they willl give us the win for sure..and i think we will take out charlotte minny and jersey...the wizards game might be winnable because caron might still be out by then.

with games at minny, miami, new jersey, charlotte, and atlanta...a losing record on this road trip will be extremely disappointing.

I highly doubt you would win in Toronto, we are on a 6 game win streak with a win average of 18pts...

5-4 seems reasonable...

ummmm 6 game win streak?

Win vs. Atlanta ( by 10 )

Loss @ Philly ( by 4)

Win @ Boston ( by 2)

Win vs. Mil ( by 31)

Loss @ Wash ( by 4)

Win vs. Wash ( by 39)

That looks like you are 4-2 over the past six to me. You had to blow out games vs. Wash and Mil.

Now, if by chance you are are talking about winning @ Toronto as your 6 game win streak. That is nice and all but hardly some mountain that we cant get over. Its not like of those team you have blown out at home are all that great.


Toronto will be tough at home for sure... but we are not afraid and its a winnable game for us.

if the lakers win today they'll have 8 road losses. toronto already has 8 home losses. this isn't like going into the united center or the o-rena.

With Lamar Odumb & Kwame "Fine-Hands" Brown on the team, it's going to be 0-9 unfortunately...

anything lower than 7-2 is unacceptable. one winning team left on the road trip.

that would mean a loss to probably the magic and to one of cha/atl/mia/nj/min. i wouldn't be happy with that especially with how the lakers have played the first 3 games and now with pau.
