OK, we are better than the preseason. At least for the first 10 games, go for 5-5!

This has got to be the toughest first 10 games in the NBA this year no?

With the hard schedule it looks to be a 24 win season at best, and that's if Kobe plays 60+ games. West is just too tough of a conference to win games in, most of the wins will be against the eastern conference.

Horrible time to be undermanned too.

I really doubt it's gonna make a difference... if we are to be a good team we can't make those excuses... or else we will even end up worse with all the negative mindset.

4-6 (and that feels optimistic... what a schedule to start the season!)

6 Home games out of the first 10 games is the only good news of the schedule.

3 back to backs with the last back to back being 4 games in six days is brutal.

This is really going to test Kobe's durability and Scott's ability to manage Kobe's minutes.

Rockets W - Houston is likely to underestimate us.

Suns L - We might be weakened after the Rockets game and its our first back to back of the season.

Clippers W- it's clippers first back-to-back + we may just surprise them.

Warriors L - our next back-to-back - not likely to recover after having to face Clippers.

Suns W - We ought to be more familiar with their play hopefully having learnt from our first confrontation with them.

Hornets W - I think we have the ability to win this.

Grizzlies W - its 50-50 but I lean towards lakers because of my personal bias nothing else.

Pelicans L - Unless we have other players back - tired legs woud be our undoing here.

Spurs W - A surprise win but Spurs usually start their season slowly and builds up.

Warriors W - Revenge time and we are at home - so lean towards our win.

So my optimism expects a 7-3 in favor of Lakers - but that's just my bias showing
