The Lakers are nasty. I am now convinced that the Lakers could win it all with this squad without Bynum. I have never seen a Lakers team hustle so much. They crash the boards, get out on the break and make the extra pass. They are so much fun to watch.

Also, me and my old man are watching the Portland feed of the game to hear what the commentators are saying about them. Pretty hilarious to hear them complain about the Lakers schedule. They're bitching about the Lakers not having many back to backs this year while Portland has already had 2 or 3. And they're complaining about their first 17 games against a bunch of cupcakes. Too funny.

The lakers look great. Adding artest last season was a fantastic add. Adding barnes this summer may have been the key move. This bench is all about hustle and barnes likes to scrap for rebounds. I think he provides some great energy for the rest of the bench.

Also, what's with all the passing? It is like freaking Hoosiers out there...3, 4 passes on many possessions. Ball movement, rebounding, help defense...this is a killing machine.

Credit to kupchack for getting the right pieces. I was sad to see JP go, but this squad may be the best team since that first three-peat group.

And credit to Jax for keeping these guys focused, hungry, and active.

Word. That was a nice bench with B Shaw, Foxy, and Big Shot Rob.

And as I type this Artest drives and dishes to Odom who goes behind his back to Pau for the jumper. Sheesh.

This one is in the refrigerator. Shannon brown getting into the act with 15 off the bench as lakers grow the lead to 30.

Bring on Boston or miami.

Heck, bring on Boston AND Miami!

Pow with a triple-double.

It is amazing how good Shannon Brown is shooting the ball right now. He's shooting like 55% from the field. I am glad we re-signed him.

Luuuuuuuuke gets into the game.

Hopefully Sasha won't shoot the crowd out of tacos.

Yes, credit to Mitch for a great under-the-radar offseason, but also credit Barnes for taking less to play in LA. It looked for a while like he might be a Toronto Raptor this offseason, and it was great news when he decided to come home. He's the kind of spark plug off the bench who doesn't take any nights off that most Laker teams don't have. I can't remember the last time I loved watching the Lakers 2nd unit.

I'm a horse!

Next week is going to be sweet. 7:30 and 8:00 PM tip offs. Yay for sleep!

I honestly think this team could roll into Christmas undefeated.

OK, so it wasn't Miami. Or Boston. Or even Orlando.

But the Portland Trail Blazers were supposed to pose some sort of threat to the Lakers' undefeated record against largely underwhelming teams.

It didn't happen. In fact, it wasn't close.

72 Wins? Not so fast, my friend...

The last unbeaten team in the NBA has made the finals 4 years in a row.

The last unbeaten team in the NBA has made the finals 4 years in a row.

That means that either the Lakers or the Hornets are coming out of the West. I wonder which one it will be?

Ron Artest says Brandon Roy appears to be injured. I agree with Ron Artest.

"I’ve played against Brandon Roy a lot of times. He wasn’t himself."

I don't think Roy had his first points (free throw) until 6 minutes left in the first half.
