lakers need to go on a 5 game run. they need to build a streak to get them to believe they can turn it around. they say they can but their play and body language says otherwise.

i think with a good effort we should be able to win the next 6.. not sure if we can repeat the same feat we did against okc... but march should be a good month for us, we got only a few strong teams, okc, chicago, indiana and maybe milwaukee.. the rest should all be wins. all we gotta do is stay consistent and play hard each and every night.. what i think they should have is that "us against the world mentality".. too much talk in the media and that whole circus around it.. not it should be the lakers team and staff against everyone else.. kinda like what the fab five had.

Jerry Buss, majority owner of the Los Angeles Lakers, died on Monday after losing a battle with an undisclosed cancer and other health problems that had forced him out of the spotlight during the past few years, according to Mike Bresnahan of the Los Angeles Times. Buss had been admitted into the hospital with the illness on Thursday.
Buss' legacy was easily defined by 10 NBA championships won as owner of the Lakers franchise. A 2010 Naismith Hall of Fame inductee, Buss also won two championships as the owner of the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks.
MORE: Silver Screen and Roll
Deeply invested in the league, Buss was the first NBA owner of an D-League team -- he bought the Los Angeles D-Fenders in 2006 -- and twice acted as chairman for the NBA Board of Governors. He bought the Lakers, the NHL's Los Angeles Kings, the Forum and a ranch in 1979 for $67.5 million.
From Salt Lake City, Utah, Buss earned a bachelor's degree at the University of Wyoming, and he later added a PhD in chemistry to his resume at Southern California. Buss soon got into real estate investing, where he began to grow his fortune that would lead into sports ownership.
Buss had struggled with undisclosed health problems in the last few years. He underwent surgery after developing blood clots in his legs in 2011, and last year underwent another surgery, according to the Los Angeles Times.
He has recently given most of the control and team operations to his son, executive vice president of player personnel Jim Buss, and his daughter, Jeanie Buss, the executive vice president of business operations.
In his most recent decision, Jerry Buss was said to been supportive of an unanimous decision for the Lakers' hiring of coach Mike D'Antoni. It was a controversial hiring that passed over former Lakers coach Phil Jackson, who is also the boyfriend of Jeanie Buss.
