Not really his fault. Guys weren't hitting shots, turning the ball over, missing FT's. NAsh wasn't getting any shots. Lakers feel behind and Kobe tried to take over. Can't blame him the way the rest of the guys played. Primarily Artest who had no business being on the floor over Jamison

O.K, so what's your point? They're still 20-25 overall, 10th place of the Western Conference and still 4 games back of the 8th seed.

The Lakers beat OKC? Congrats to them. Not to go off topic here but our Knicks have beaten the Heat twice along with the Spurs twice.

But once again, the Lakers are on a three game win streak (OKC, UTAH & New Orleans). Big deal. Say hello to 20-25 overall, 5 games below .500, 10th seed of the Western Conference and only 3.5 games ahead of the Kings for the 13th seed of the West (only ahead of Phoenix and New Orleans).

That's reality...

WHAT Do the knicks have to do with the lakers? They are making an observation about the lakers recent good play... and they are playing better..

The same posters who harp all over Knick L's then become the same posters talking up the Lakers (of all teams) as "apparently" a team that has "figured it out".

Just because they beat the Hornets by 5 points and/or a three game winning streak doesn't mean the Lakers haven't figured anything out. They're a 20-25 basketball team and currently 10th seed of the Western Conference until proven otherwise. A small three game win streak doesn't change all of the above. Still 4 games back of the Rockets for the 8th seed.

But with all that said, I do hope the Lakers make the postseason over the likes of Houston who's only 25-22 as the 8th seed of the Western Conference. As a basketball fan, I can see the Lakers putting up a strong fight against just about any team with Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, Pau Gasol and Dwight Howard. The Houston Rockets on the other hand? I can't see James Harden leading this team to the playoffs let alone out of the first round. Just not enough help surrounding Harden.

But yea, at 20-25 overall while being the 10th seed of the Western Conference and/or 18th amongst all NBA teams (standings wise); I wouldn't say they've figured anything out"

That was my response to the Lakers "figuring it out".

And I was proven right/correct last night. The Lakers just lost to the 2nd worst team in the Western Conference. The awful PHX Suns.

The Lakers are now 20-26 overall and the 10th seed of the Western Conference. Only 3.5 games ahead of becoming the 3rd worst record/team of the entire Western Conference. 3.5 games I repeat.

Yea, right, the Lakers have "figured it out". Too funny...

Not watching but I checked the box score. Rockets were down 10. What is McHale doing that is costing them the game? Nuggets have a better team.

exactly...
