Are 2012-13 Lakers Most Disappointing Team All Time?

This is the only place on the internet where losing in the finals is worse than being an 7 seed and getting swept.

Lakers had major hype before the season started, anyone who says different is trolling.

It's just blind hatred from laker fans unwilling to admit that the lakers were the most disappointing team in nba history

If you honestly believe that the Laker squad that was hyped up we really got to see in the regular season and playoffs than you are being dishonest.

They were a disappointment but because of serious rash of injuries we never got to see the team that was being hyped.

If the Lakers were healthy and won 45 games, 7th seed and got swept in the 1st rnd then I would agree that would be the most disappointing team in NBA History.

Majority of Lakers fans admit the season was a disappointment, but because of massive injuries the hyperbole of Most Disappointing Team in NBA History is truly blind hatred.

As a Laker fan, every season they don't win is disappointment to me. So if the Lakers are #1 seed that is being hyped up while running thru teams in the playoffs and then lose to a lesser team in the Finals while healthy and being up in the series...you best believe that would be the Biggest Disappointment as Laker fan. Disappointment is not living up to expectations, in which the 2013 Lakers didn't live up to. But it's even worse not living up to expectations when you are healthy like the Heat did in 2011.

The fact that you can't admit that Heat losing in the 2011 Finals was a disappointment says it all.

I admitted it was a disappointing but I have stated over and over to say a team that went all the way to the finals is more disappointing than this lakers team is beyond ridiculous

And again injuries add to the disappointment not an excuse

Fair enough. We just have different degrees of what "most disappointing" is.

Being injured and not living up to expectations is most disappointing to you.

Being healthy and not living up to expectations is most disappointing to me.

We'll just have to agree to disagree

yup

Simple truth is the best truth

'94 Sonics

definately not the most dissapointing team ever... what about the 07 mavs

I'm sorry, but ladies and gentlemen, this is the correct answer
Gettin' torched by fat ass Baron Davis

Bein' a 67-win team

League MVP

Gettin' bounced in the 1st round

Dirk shootin' 38% aganist 6'7 small forwards

Had everybody healthy for that upset, unlike SA in '11 (Ginobili)

Dont wanna hear 'bout how GS swept them durin' the RS, as LeBron swept the Spurs in the regular season before the '07 Finals

'94 Sonics

Those Lakers back in the day with Karl Malone/Payton where disappointing too. But these Lakers didn't even make it past the second round... And they ruined Kobe's career.

Robbery.

Not even close. As a Laker fan, the 04 squad with Malone and Payton was far more disappointing.

There was plenty of hype coming in this year but once they fired Brown, a lot of the hype was lost.

Not true at all everybody blamed brown and once he was fired the hype was even bigger
