This feels like the best performance over 4 straight games by a Laker since Kobe scored 50+ points in four straight games in 2007.
What do you think? |

We were winning with Kobe though. When we lose, stats don't matter. It's nice when Kobe scored 80 points and we won the game. It's not so nice when AD had a ridiculous 40/20/5/5 game but we still lost by double digits. Thanks Pelinka.  |

Lakers record during Kobe's 4-game streak: 4-0
Lakers record during AD's 4-game streak: 3-1
We've been winning while AD is beasting.
Remember 2007 Kobe had to be a one-man-army and have TEN 50 point games in the season just for the Lakers to squeak out a 7th seed and then get bounced in the 1st round.
There were similar complaints about the "lack of help" around Kobe back then except he had guys like Smush Parker, Kwame Brown and Luke Walton in his starting 5 and his second best player was Lamar Odom. While AD has LeBron and Russel Westbrook. |

Davis has been great over the last four games.
Davis actually had a four-game run during the ring year where he scored more points than during this run. Whether that was a better performance is in the eye of the beholder.
I'd also say LeBron has had a lot of four game runs while he's in here that are probably as impressive, although I realize it is against the unwritten rules of LG to say anything complimentary about LeBron at this moment in time  |

No that's fine, mention them. Maybe I have selective memory but it’s hard for to think of any other stretches that were better since 2007. Of course it’s not just the points, but the combination of points, rebounds, and defense (including blocks and steals). Just awesome. |

| Anything with Kobe in it. We were so spoiled. |
