My only concern is that even though we're playing great, our guys are still young and inexperienced so come playoff time we might end up like the Raptors last year.

That's why we have Derek Fisher and Kobe Bryant. 2 of the most experienced players in the league when it comes to big playoff games. No more Smush. 8)
Teddy Roosevelt:
Playoff experience:
Kobe=10
Fisher=9
Mihm=4
Vlad=4
Kwame=3
Odom=3
Walton=3
And the entire coaching staff as a ton of playoff experience. So I wouldn't bee too worried.

Yea...I think these past 2 seasons alone was enough experience for the group. Time to step it up a notch. 8)

We just need to play from above-average to good D coz any team not named SAS, Detroit and Boston can't defend against us anyways .. I ain't THAT impressed by our FG% coz our very good passing game and recognition of the mismatchs are getting us high percentage shots ..

It's just nitpicking over the little things because a win is a win, but that's not a good excuse for them letting Memphis get back into the game the other night. It was only Memphis, so they ended up making a bunch of stupid turnovers to kill their own comeback, but I was watching that and wondering how the Lakers were struggling to put them away. They got it corrected last night though, they handled the Hornets.

Are you kidding me? We beat Memphis by 16 points AT MEMPHIS...That's not enough by Laker standards nowadays? I understand. After all, we have been blowing teams out by 20+ points...I guess expectations have highly increased for us.
