Well they are in the favorites but can't be sure before the first 10-15 matches if they are able for the repeat...

Possible. But it's pretty sure that their road to winning yet again another world championship will be harder than ever before. All the teams in the NBA when facing a defending champion is or will always try to improve their level of play to try to win against that team which is the Boston Celtics, the current champs. Teams are routing for the championship and are gunning against the best team last season. I'm not that pleased with them releasing Posey but still glad that they added some good players in their roster. I'm a huge Laker fan and it really sucked that they lost to the Celtics. I hope this years' Laker roster will be healthy, will improve and will play basketball as a unit, a team. It's up to MVP Kobe to lead his team into winning a championship. There are lots of player movements and changes in teams' roster this upcoming season. It will definitely be an exciting season to watch. Can't wait. :)

It is possible for them to win it all over again but its not going to be as easy. The Lakers werent fully healthy when playing against the Celtics. They will have Bynum back this year and also a lot of teams in the east have improved there rosters so the East is going to be a little bit more harder. Teams like Cleveland, Philadelphia, Toronto, and Washington have improved. Last year Washington wasent fully healthy they had a lot of injuries specially having there best player injured at the time this year I expect them to do better. Also the Sixers with there whole team back the addition of Elton Brand could be a very dangerous team and then you have Detroit who are always a top team in the east and the Magic who could be even better than last year. If the Celtics stay healthy and play well they could win another championship but even if healthy it wont be as easy in the stronger eastern conference.
