I'm a big Laker fan and they are REALLY going to surprise. I watch every game and am an open and honest critic and fan.
You can look at their record at 11-10 and say that's how good they'll be, but it's not that simple.
In the beginning of the year they looked lost. Nobody knew where to go on offense, they didn't know the defense, etc.
They've won 5 of their last 6 and they look like they can play with anybody. Forgot to mention, 4 of those wins were on the road. LAL has come a long way in just 21 games and I expect them to just get stronger and stronger. Much of those early games were also with 3-4 injuries to some of their main bench contributors. I'm not saying they're going to win it all, but I think they could push 50 wins... which would be a SHOCK to most.
