The NBA should be afraid of the lakers?

Lakers are hot right now, but so are Jazz and Hornets. Teams get hot and cold all the time during the long season. Anyone can win the West including Spurs, Nuggets and Dallas. Getting Ariza and Bynum back healthy is key, but this far they are behind schedule. Lakers are showing signs of a great team, but it's a little premature to raise any banners yet. Would be nice to see LA - Boston in the finals!
