EL SEGUNDO
You won’t hear Phil Jackson or any of the Lakers players popping off about matching the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls record of winning 72 games.

Lakers Blog —
There's no denying the talent on this season's Lakers squad, winners of 65 games last season and improved with (hopefully) a full season of Andrew Bynum and (theoretically) the addition of Ron Artest .
