a lot of people were just going off what Durant did at the World's.  Impressive without question, but i think last year they surprised people last year and now they are having a tough time living up to expectations.  They definitely aren't contenders though

BG played great tonight

You always do that, saying info without any evidence, just provide a link or say where you got the info from.
well about 92% of the time im usually correct so i dont post false info like others on here.

anyways he said it in an interview yesterday or today. plus if you look on the magic website it will have #1 listed next to his name.

Were they REALLY that close last year?

They were about as close as Phoenix was, or how close ATL was against the C's in 08.

They had a couple good games, they won a few, and a few games were close, but, that happens every damn year.

I mean we wanna talk about how close, Phoenix was just as close.

Appreciate it, but it's just as easy to say that in the first place, saves people the trouble of asking for sources.

Gil as 1 sounds good to me, same with the Penny's

Half everyone in here I swear was putting them as the only other team out of the West to even try and sniff the Lakers.


I'll give the Lakers the benefit of the doubt, being back-to-back champs, and I'd still consider them a heavy favorite over any team in the West right now despite their record, but not Oklahoma fricking City.

They need size on that team if they EVER want to make noise.

It's not that I hate OKC or anything, but they just ain't ready to make noise anywhere.

They won without their new pieces against someone who's supposed to be contenders in the West?

Team is still very raw.

Detroit doing it big without Rodney.

at you popping off after one game in the regular season in which OKC only lost by 3

They are contenders and the only teams that have a chance at dethroning LA out west are SA/Dallas/OKC

I been popping off about them all sesaon.

Only teams I consider real contenders in the L right now are LAL, San Antonio, and Boston.

Sorry to all the other fans out there.

And yeah I said San Antonio, those bastards are playing out of their goddamn minds.

GILBERT ARENAS: ``It was because I was a Penny Hardaway fan. It was funny when I played in Los Angeles all of my friends would say, `I hope you get traded to Orlando, your favorite team or some other team. It was funny because as soon as I got traded I thought, ``You’re there! Now pick No. 1. Yeah, that’s (No. 1) is what I’m going to wear for Penny Hardaway.’’

Yeah everybody wants to go off on what they did in the playoffs. We all know if that went to a seven game the Lakers was gonna blow them out. There a good team but eventually they will need a big that can score. Maybe Dwight in 2012 if things in Orlando dosen't work out? Even though Westbrook has improved the Lakers hands down wins the west. Only thing stopping them is if they feel like turning that switch on. And we all know that's all there waiting for. Okc has some learning to do before we can call them legit contenders.

No team is stopping the Lakers unless they have some really good front-court bigs.

And not just one, you need an army of skillful, agile bigs.
