NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.
The last time the Lakers went 7 – 0 to start the season it was 2001 and they finished the season with the NBA Title.
The Lakers are not playing like a championship team, but they are winning like a Championship team and for this time of the season that is good enough.
So what is their formula for success?
Hang in there and let Kobe takeover in the end.
The success formula allows them to win for now, but they have to develop into more of a team if they want to seriously make a title run.
We do have some very good stretches,” Fisher said. “It’s something we can build on. We know we have a long way to go. We’re only in November. We want to keep winning. (But) I think we’re relying on Kobe’s ability to make plays too much in the fourth quarter. … So, that’s something we’re going to have to correct.
“Teams know the ball is going to be in his hands down the stretch. We have to be able to do things so that there are other options. We have too many other guys who can make plays. It doesn’t always have to be Kobe.”
