If I look at the stats correctly, starting with the 02-03 season when Dallas went to the WCF, their overall record against the Lakers is 7-10. In Los Angeles, the Mavs have a 1-6 record, with the one win coming in the 03-04 season. For the record, the Mavs home record against the Lakers is only 6-4 during this stretch, so regardless of a 2-1 record this season, the Lakers have been a tough win for the Mavs, even with all of their success in the last few years. You can deny it, but it doesn't make it any less true.
