    kept it close a few times, all you can ask for from a young team.

    If I'm on this Lakers squad, if there was any doubt previously, I walk away saying to myself, "we can play with these guys".

    For a young team, that is a nice confidence booster.

    Proud of these guys, when u think its gonna turn into a blowout, these guys fight right back to at least give themselves a chance, spurs are just a damn good team and were hitting every shot it seemed like despite lakers playing some good defense. This team is definitely growing up at a faster pace than i would of thought.

    Facing them on their second of a back to back, let's take advantage and get the win at home.

    i still cant begin to stress how much a team like this/season like this was needed after kobes departure.

    seems like blasphemy now but i havent missed kobe really at all this season and its a testament to this team.

    ill always love you kobe, but man i love THESE Lakers!

    In an NFL similarity...kind of like how the Detroit Lions are doing alright without Calvin Johnson aka Megatron.

    Also, this team won't string so many losses in a row unlike the last two seasons where it was the norm.
