no offense, but LA couldnt be beat when they were all healthy. What was there record at the beginning of the season? I think they went some 14-2 or something like that before the imjury bug hit them

They had a pretty easy schedule early on...and there was a lot of intimidation. Other teams felt like they were cannon fodder.
Now though, their invincibility is gone.
Key though is, as you said, "if they are healthy".
I doubt Shaq will ever be 100% again and age has caught up with GP and Karl.
Don't get me wrong, I've loved those two all their careers...but age gets us all at some stage.Comment

Re: NBA Teams
Well, they played some of the best teams in the west in that stretch, and killed them.
The Pacers went in there on a 13 game winning streak, and were killed
I havent seen old age hurt the Lakers, and Ive seen them play about 5 games this season
As for Shaq, I hate him as much as any one else, but he is so big, yuo cant guard him.
The Lakers can be beat if the other team can keep scoring on him, and make him work, but the fact is, hurt or not, he is still instoppable, esp down low, esp since he is never called for effensive fouls. That hasnt been a problem lately, but its not like I could let it go from the past
