Lakers don't suck you fools, they're playing at 50% strength right now. This team was built around the big four, and they're missing half of it. The bench needs more consistent players, but once Nash and Gasol get healthy wins will come....

I agree, but a team with Kobe, Dwight and role player should still be able to beat piss poor teams.

This, I've watched a lot of basketball this season and last season... a lot of teams play/played without their top players and have been respectable until their return... Actually there seems to be evry few teams that are actually healthy majority of the season. Having two of the arguable best players at their positions on the court should not lead to the performances they are putting out...

Watching the cleveland game, for some reason Dwight looks pretty average and non-aggressive.. it was weird.

Yeah, I mean even as I overreact I still fully believe that the Lakers will be an elite team.

There is NO WAY, and I repeat there is NO f'ing WAY that a team with this:

PG: Steve Nash

SG: Kobe Bryant

SF: Metta World Peace

PF: Pau Gasol

CR: Dwight Howard

Bench:

Antawn Jamison

Jodie Meeks

Jordan Hill

can not be an elite team.

I do agree that Dwight looks passive on offense and doesn't seem to impact the defense as much as he should, but he still isn't fully healthy and won't be for another couple of months. I think by the All-Star break that the Lakers will be a top 3 team, but they can't blow games until then, because they are going to wind up with a 7 or 8 seed and will have to play the Thunder or Spurs in the 1st round.
