    Yea, this is good. The Lakers getting off to a fast start at 4-0 and being one of only 2 remaining undefeateds I believe is really good. I think by doing this, they've really silenced the critics and analysts who said that they might have problems with 4 future HOF and only one ball. Now granted it is still early, it's still looking good.

    Its not how you start its how you finish..and with all the old men on the team Jackson is going to have manage playin time so they don't get worn out at the end of the year. Also Shaq will need to stay healthy

    It looks like they're doing pretty good with minute management for now. I mean, they have 6 people averaging double figures right now. That's a good sign. Plus, you can tell this team is working well right now cause they lead the league in assists. But, Phil is a genious in this game, so, I think he'll have no problems managing the minutes of his veterans.

    Its good for sure. Ws are Ws. But we still need to mesh more and pull together. Too many TOs and too many defensive lapses. We're doing a good job hitting shots and on the offensive end though.

    Lest we forget, Dallas had that great start last season, and then just kind of petered off, so lets not forget...the season is long.

    Yea, but, look at how Dallas wins. They win by scoring over 100 pts night in night out. And that my friend, that comes back to haunt you in an 82 game schedule. And that came back and made them fatigued. When you have to score crap loads to win, that's gonna make you a lot more tired than say, the Spurs, who only averaged around 92 last year. So, yea, that's what killed them. Hopefully it doesn't happen to LA though...
