    They're all teams who the Lakers can win. But 8 of them are on the road.
    Ofcourse we're going to win SAN and DET, cuz they're the toughest teams and we always win good teams.

    I think we will win 6 of those games.

    I predict us winning the bold ones, so 7-3.

    im praying for a miracle to happen and the lakers sweep their road game! for that to happen kobe should step it up on offence "a bit"... odom needs to quickly mesh in with the group and the bench become relentless

    San Antonio - L
    @ NY - W
    @ Boston - W
    @ Indiana - L
    @ DC - L
    @ Atlanta - W
    @ Det - L
    @ Tor - L
    @ Cle - W
    NYC - W

    I say 5-5. They have a couple of back-to-backs which could hurt them.

    You guys are trippin, you think we're gonna lose that game against the Wizards?

    No way in hell, Kobe has marked that game on his calendar after what Arenas did and the whole controversary, he is gonna show up vintage Kobe style and we're gonna win that game.

    I really don't think we're gonna beat the Spurs 3-0 so far this year, I could seee that as a loss. The rest are all "winnable" games this year, but so far, that doesn't seem to mean to much to the Lakers.

    My thoughts exactly.

    I also like Bobcats analysis, except he has us to lose against Indiana. I think that is a "W".

    I say 6-4.

    I'll say 7-3. Wow I can't wait for the Washington game as well as Toronto.

    If Kobe gets into a 1 on 1 scoring duel with Arenas, the Lakers will most likely lose. Kobe can't try to go out and score 50+ while ignoring his teammates.

    He's done it and won before. What makes this any different??? I think Kobe knows what he needs to do to win... If Arena's wants to go ONE on ONE, I say let them duke it out. Should be fun either way. His teammates will probrably urge him on anyway. Its payback.

    Lakers are capable of winning at least 8/10. But we were also capable of beating the Bobcats, Bucks, Grizzlies, and Hornets. Need I say more?

    Kobe > Arenas. Anyplace, anytime, anywhere.

    Still, I have a bad feeling that we're going to have 4-5 wins from these games. I don't know why, but I believe that Wizards, Spurs, Indiana, Detroit and Cleveland will beat us.

    It's just we don't have any rhythm and balance atm. We should have to wait for a few games and then say how many games we're capable to win.

    Still, we're very capable of winning 10 in a row, too.
    That's basketball.

    The Lakers are capable of winning all those games. Do I think it'll happen though? No, not likely at least. For some odd reason, I see us losing to the Celtics and the Hawks. Those two games just give me a bad feeling because we have a tendency to play down opponents (note: Bobcats) and I just have this hunch will do it in those games, against two teams that we should destroy despite being on the road. Other than those two, Washington, San Antonio, and Detroit worry me, but I think those are all winnable games despite that.

    [​IMG] @ the predictions. Bobcats was the closest, predicting we'd go 5-5. I guess all the back to backs on the road has really hurt us. We couldn't pick a better time to come back home
