When the Rams come back home in three years, the rivalry will be a good one. It seems the Rams only played well this season when they were playing the 49ers.
I grew up a 49ers fan. Growing up, I never liked the Raiders, and I never really got to know the Rams as they left when I was like 8 or 9. The 49ers have always been my football team, and is the only team I root for that is not based in Los Angeles.

Rams actually have a winning record against the 49ers overall.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic or really celebratory but while the Clippers are blowing everyone away the Lakers barely beat one of the worst teams ever by 1 at home.
But I will give the Lakers credit for coming back from 18 down in the third, but can someone please tell me how that happened in the first place?
Being down by 18 to the Charlotte Bobcats at home in the third?
Nice comeback against an 18-9 team on the road. Good to have Nash back. The defense has to get a lot better. Should be another high scoring game against the Knicks on Christmas though. Hopefully it's 5 wins in a row and the team gets rolling.
Kobe got fouled on quite a few of those 41 shots, but no call. Obviously he got pissed at the refs and started jacking up wild shots, but in the end he helped close out the game that he nearly ruined in the first place so I can't complain too much.
4 wins in a row does not constitute a train wreck.
The Warriors' defense is actually worse than the Lakers. Hard to believe, but true.
The Lakers are a train wreck. They are barely a 500. team.
Wait till they play the Thunder again. Or a team that actually knows how to defend. Hate to see Nash try and cover that Lillard kid in Portland as well. They better put Kobe on that kid.
The next three games should be good, see if Nash is really going to make that much difference. They have NY,Den,Portland coming up.
The Lakers just look really slow.

Good summation.
He does this a lot. Shoot the team out of games, then shoots them back into games.
For me, its frustrating to watch his selfishness. Ultimately, this team cannot win a championship playing in this manner. I sincerely question whether it can win a playoff series playing in this manner.

I would think its pretty obvious at this point that they cannot get past the elite in this conference and that would be OKC, the L.A. Clippers, and Memphis.
They have one. I think Laker fans have been a bit too overreactive so far this year. We have a great starting five with everyone back, should wait and see how things play out. Not athletic enough but in the half-court I don't know who can stop this team offensively.
