Lakers too soft to win it all

Through four games Lakers fans are already counting the days to this years finals.  I being a Lakers fan am excited about this season.  We have Andrew Bynum to provide the size that left us limping home last year after getting beat up by the neighborhood bully.  As excited as I am I have to ask myself the question.  Now that we have more size, do we have the toughness?  Can we get mean when it counts?  Do we have an enforcer?  The great teams did.  We don't.  This is what is going to hurt the Lakers chances of winning it all this year and this is right now the reason why this years team is not great.  If you remember we all thought we were going to win it all in 1984 but we then got beat up by the same bully.  We came back and had the fire to win it all in 1985.  Does this years team have the guts to dig deep and fight when it counts?
