If the Lakers where in the East, then yes..... however in the West it's a whole other story....
good luck Kobe
They're not winning , stfu contract boy
Right now all 30 teams have the same chances to win the le. Kobe's not wrong in saying they have a chance, technically.
48 ain't winning . despite denial from his suckers, that bag is firmly strapped to that Achilles. Duncan no longer bears that burden, Duncan kicked his leg with so much force it launched the bag halfway across America and landed squarely at 48's feet in that land that is overdue to drop off the face of the earth on the west coast.
If 6 did anything is possible.
48 doesn't have the tools to fix his sinking ship, and you ing know it. 48 is in a worse situation than the King was just this past NBA finals... and 48 is in the west.
Agree, according to quantum physics if a prisoner keeps knocking himself against the wall he'll have a slim chance to go through the wall someday and then out of the jail.
Mr.48 can't even carry his team to be in a 6 situation..
Get Boozer, championship will come...

Before Young could become too giddy about staying in his hometown, he received an important phone call from Kobe Bryant. The message went beyond congratulating Young, a former Cleveland Reseda High and USC standout, on staying in his hometown.
“He was the first person to call me. He was telling me to get in the gym and work hard,” Young recalled. “They’re already counting us out.”
Yes, they are.
The Lakers are not just coming off a 27-55 record last season, the team’s worst in L.A. franchise history. The Lakers lost in the James and Anthony sweepstakes. Pau Gasol, who guided the Lakers to two NBA les in his 6 1/2 seasons here, left for the Chicago Bulls. The Lakers also lost key reserves in Jodie Meeks to Detroit and Young’s close friend, Jordan Farmar, to the Clippers.
“This is a chance for him to see what it’s like to be on the other side and be an enemy,” Young said of Farmar leaving. “We’ve always been rivals since high school. But I wanted to keep him.”
Yet, Young stayed optimistic. He gushed about Bryant’s recovery after playing in only six games last season because of injuries to his left Achilles tendon and left knee. Young touted the Lakers acquiring guard Jeremy Lin (and a 2015 first and second round pick) from the Houston Rockets for the rights to overseas player Sergei Lishchuk. Young liked the Lakers agreed to a two-year, $18 million to bring back forward Jordan Hill. And, of course, Young mentioned how the the Lakers signed on board for another four years of “Swaggy P.”
“We’ll be fine; they got me,” Young said. “We’re a playoff team. Don’t count us out.”
It seems pretty challenging for the Lakers to live up to Young’s bold prediction . Plenty of that depends on Bryant’s health and play, for sure. Some of it hinges on how much Young duplicates last season’s performance in which he averaged a team-leading 17.9 points on 43.5 percent shooting. When Young went through that process, Bryant offered him some tough love on how to develop into a complete player.
Young believes he will remain a backup small forward. But how will he adjust toward playing with Bryant and stomach his infamous death stares?
“Oh man,” Young said, smiling. “I can handle them though. A lot of them can’t handle Kobe’s looks.”
Young received plenty of them last year, the most famous one involving Bryant directly looking at Young with a stern expression from the sidelines.
“That moment, we were down by like 20 at Golden State,” Young recalled. “It was bad. He gave me that look, ‘Like come on!’ I tried, but it was tough.”
Safe to say those interactions will continue, with Bryant’s early offseason phone call setting the tone.
“Kobe puts more pressure on me,” said Young, who has frequently played in Drew League games this summer. “Ever since he gave me that phone call, I’ve been in the gym every day.”
i didnt know kawhi knew how to smile tbh
Who's your coach?
No, that's not flying. Admit, Kobe is full of .
Of course, you have Media pied pipering the horde. But, I ain't part of the horde. I ain't nobody's fart catcher.48 doesn't have the tools to fix his sinking ship, and you ing know it. 48 is in a worse situation than the King was just this past NBA finals... and 48 is in the west.
I'm a trend setter.
I set trends.
And in the bitter end when I looked over as I was shinin' them in' shoes I spotted that hump Howard and last in was James, Kiwi & all.
They can concoct & cite legacy and "ring don't matter no more." until the cow's come home. Uh, uh. We started together at ring was everything and that's how we're going on to the end. We're not going to mentor kids and we're not going to hide Bird as Stevenson burns his ass and we're not going to give Doc a break because Silver can't lynch Sterling and keep him lynched. No, we're not gonna do those things on this Forum. No. Absolutely not.
The Spisak Manifesto that I invented at AZ Central 20 years ago:::
1. make the playoffs.
2. win the last game you play.
There is nothing else.
At least your Lakers have the chance to do #2!

LOL his team is ing garbage, they won't get close to a ring. He is a gimp too now.
You nary have room for a chance.
You were in the can as well a year ago this time, Duncan, letting a semi retired Battier take him to the wood shed.
You came back, Diaw breaking his back carrying Duncan to it.
Anything is possible.
