Highly doubt we can go 5-0.. We will lose at least 1 game (Portland) and possibly 2..

Portland and Denver i think will be losses..

3-2 and we retain HC tie breaker with everyone except Cavs..

i think we can go 5-0 as long as we play well and keep whats on the link and i have a really really good feeling about cavs losing one game maybe even two games. we can go 5-0 easily as long as we play laker basketball and play together. everyone needs to remember whats at stake, and we CAN go 5-0 and have the league best record. 2008-2009 lakers reg season 66-16 in the playoffs 16-3 result NBA CHAMPS, KOBE BRYANT MVP, PAU GASOL CO-MVP.

4-1. Loss to Denver or Portland. I'll even accept 3-2, as long as Bynum comes back looking like a beast.

4-1 with that loss being to any of the WC playoff teams we still have, I want to think 5-0, but we spend too long in some games doing absolutely nothing, so I think that will lead to another loss. We'll see if Cleveland can even beat Orlando or Boston to make their homecourt matter.

We have a very good chance of going 5-0 but Im going to say 4-1. Bynum will/should be a big confidence booster for the team. The way they have played in the past month or so it seems like they've been waiting on him.

Only on realgm is 27,000 points, 5 rings, 1 rs mvp and 2 finals mvp considered overrated!

4-1
If they lose the Portland game which they probably will, I'd rest Kobe and Pau since it would be difficult to get home court over Cleveland anyway.
If they do rest Kobe and Pau for the last game or 2, they may even go 3-2.

lakers lost their last game to denver and got embarrassed in the last one in portland. i'm not going to count those as losses, especially heading into the playoffs when messages need to be sent. they lost their last game against utah too and they're last game in sac. i'll go with 5-0 with all these revenge games coming up.
