The Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers are the team to beat. Well the Lakers are the team to beat in Los Angeles, not the rest of the NBA. The Lakers current climb to the top of the Western Conference has been entertaining to say the least, but it over shadows what the rest of the league has to offer. The Houston Rockets have won 16 in a row, the Spurs 10, and the Celtics 6 not to mention a playoff spot secured..Already. Amazing runs are what we all as sports fans live for, but when will the madness stop. The Lakers are hot, but would they beat the Spurs or the Rockets if they faced them right now? I guess we will find out  March 16th when the Lakers march to Houston, a place they have always had a hard time playin in since the early years of the Shaq/Kobe dynasty. I will go out on a limb and say that the Rockets will not have the winning streak in tact when they meet (I hope they do), Nonetheless this game will be for a playoff spot and as the end of the season approachs us, we as fans can only sit back and watch as these Lakers make a run for the NBA championship
