<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Despite the perception that "the sky is falling" (and it very well may be), the Lakers have an identical record today, March 12, 2007 as they did exactly a year ago: 33-31.Here's a breakdown of the games remaining thru the end of each season:Home vs Away2007: 10 home, 8 away2006: 11 home, 7 awayQuality of Opponent2007: 8 playoff teams (includes Denver and Clippers)2006: 9 playoff teamsInjuries to Starters:2007: 2 (Odom and Walton)2006: 1 (Mihm)Given the Lakers recent struggles (see table below), injuries, and chemistry issues, there are few reasons to think that the team could finish 12-6, as the 2006 team did. But the situations, at least on paper, are very comparable.Games won in prior month (30 days):2007: 32006: 8</div>With Odom and Walton coming back I'm starting to get excited.
I'm sad we have the same record as last year but excited about what's coming.GO LAKERS GO GO GO GOGOGOOGODFSIJFID!
To make a serious run at 45 wins we'd need to go 12-6. I doubt that happens becausea) We have no chemistry, too many injuries to create good chemistryb) lamar and walton won't be 100%c) Kobes' legs are deadEven if we make the playoffs, were going to be smashed because again, kobe's tired. And kobe being tired equals losses.
