This is a hungry team that is really starting to play well with Gasol and I highly doubt any team in the west wants to play the Lakers in the playoffs.

One game he scored 18 and then he scored 30 when Parker and Duncan were not playing. In addition, in game 2, Bowen did not guard Kobe. And in game 3 when Kobe scored 29 Bowen played 23 minutes and only guarded Kobe for 12 of those minutes (according to elias). Plenty of size does not equate to wins. But we shall see--who knows.
