The Lakers are down 0-2 in the exhibition games, with one defeat being handed to them by their LA counterpart the Clippers with a score of 102-80. The Lakers said they are not worried, which I guess is a sign that the Lakers have yet to take on their real form. THat form would have to be tested in the Lakers' first season game on October 28 with the Portland Trail Blazers. An LA Times raised the same questions that I have had for quite a while now, which is "how would the current LA roster work together efficiently?" The good news is that they are loaded with talent, but the bad news is that well...they might have too much talent. I do believe though that the Lakers can work things out in the season. Kobe has been a steady leader lately, far mature than he was during the Shaq era. I am sure that he would be able to carry this team once more on his back and that his support cast would learn to give way to each other. It is too early to predict whetehr the Lakers can pull off another trip to the Finals, much less win the title, but it certainly is within their reach. They just ahev to make sure that they find their rhythm as soon as possible and not miss a beat.
