Lakers look to get back on track

Everyone knows 82 wins is not possible, well everyone except a few of my friends who called after every win claiming it was. Now that we finally got that out of the way the Lakers will look to get back in the W column on Tuesday against the Chicago Bulls. Rookie Derrick Rose has proved he is the real deal as one of the top scorers for Chicago. The Lakers should have a height advantage at almost every position and need to take advantage on the inside. They lost to the Pistons for a few reasons, their defensive effort wasn't as good as it has been all year, Kobe had an off shooting night, and let's be honest the Pistons seemed to make nearly everything they threw up, evidenced by Rasheed Wallace banking in a three pointer as the shot clock expired with a hand in his face from 25 feet away. They were the last team to lose, let's hope that at the end of the season, they are the last team to win.
