Nope.
They can't beat teams like Charlotte yet alone teams like the Suns and Mavs in a 7 game series. They're too inconsistent to be able to win 4 games against either the Mavs, Jazz, Suns, or even the Nuggets. It's not happening this year for the Lakers, sorry. All these teams have to do is double team Kobe Bryant for 4 games to secure a 4 game sweep. Just like the Lakers double teamed Allen Iverson for 4 games in 2001, the opposing team will double team Kobe to get wins.
You must have never seem Michael Jordan play, if you did you wouldn't have a dumb name like that.

Preseason does not remember. Mike brown replaced into (a million-6) while his Cavs went to the finals in 07. And now to respond to your question Lakers have a large risk of winning the championship. They relatively have the wonderful commencing lineup interior the NBA. A innovations-blowing 5 PG,superb SG,innovations-blowing 5 protecting SF,innovations-blowing 5 PF,superb C that lineup is astounding. There bench isn't the wonderful yet neither replaced into the warmth's final season. while Lakers went back to back they did no longer have a stable or undesirable bench in my eyes it replaced right into slightly above elementary. This 365 days there bench is elementary. From there bench they have dissimilar weapons on the PG place. Steve Blake,Chris Duhon,Darius Morris,Andrew Goudelock. mutually as none of those names will capture your eye, they make a contribution nicely. Steve Blaker in the previous his harm final 365 days replaced into averaging 7.5ppg and had a large shooting overall performance in recreation 7 vs Denver. Chris Duhon and Darius Morris can run the Lakers at situations for the duration of the season, they are no longer the wonderful yet there stable. Andrew Goudelock is on the spot offense of the bench he jogs my memory relatively some Leandro Barbosa. Then they have Jodie Meeks who's an innovations-blowing 3 factor shooter he will choose Morris or yet another gamers penetration so he can shoot his 3's. Devin Ebanks will finally get his enjoying time on the grounds that Matt Barnes is out, he's a protracted forward streaky shooter and may be a stable perimeter defender if he places interior the artwork this 365 days. Now we could get to there vast men of the bench. Antwan Jamison is a former all-celebrity who has a varay of unorthodox photographs, continues to be a stable rebounder I assume 10ppg 5rpg 2apg from him coming of the bench. interior the preseason Robert Sacre is calling like a decant participant stable rebounder no longer lots of an offensive participant. Jordan Hill is robust for hustle he will proceed what he replaced into doing final season. you spot they have a stable risk at winning this season. There bench is elementary mutually as there starters are large. i've got faith that the Thunder would be there toughest warring parties on the grounds that they adventure up nicely with the Lakers. in the event that they get previous them they are going to maximum probable win using fact the warmth are very undersized. i understand i ought to sound biased yet I gave a reason on why the Lakers can win this 365 days.

The Lakers have shown increasing signs of improving from time to time, but overall they aren't quite there yet.
The west is too stacked and the Lakers won't go past round 2.

of course not. They wont have the inside defense to stop the suns, the bench and third and fourth scorers to keep up the mavericks, and the low-post presence needed to guard tim duncan.
