I consider that a win in my book, first game and they nearly pulled it off with alot of changes.

sorry bro a win is a win a loss is a loss. numbers dont lie, almost making it doesnt really matter in the real world, its the final score, thats what people will remmeber, and thats what actually counts.

with that being said, yes the lakers were acclimating to the new team chemistry and they did do a good job, but i think they let off on the gas a lil too early, and that ultimately cost them the game.

It was a pretty ugly game overall, too many turnovers by both teams.

Overall, I'm pretty optimistic that the Lakers will still be very competitive

Yeah cant count them out yet, but Kobes wrist was starting to bother him during the end of the game, I don't know how bad that will get and how that is going to affect the team in the future.

simple fixable reasons they lost last night...turnovers and freethrows. That's it.

Actually they were pretty much neck and neck the whole game, its just the end there was a little bit of clumsiness from the Lakers offense that caused room for DR to close in and score with 4.8 remaining.

But like I said it if the Lakers would have played a lil bit more whole heartedly they wouldn't have gave the Bulls an opportunity to sneak up behind them and take the win. Defense was definetley an issue hopefully they do better against Sacramento tonight.
