Elie Seckbach, the Embedded Correspondent, brings his exclusive video reporting to FanHouse. Check back regularly for more videos.
The Los Angeles Lakers made it to the Finals last year but came up short, and the experience has given the team an appetite for more. In this video we talk to NBA Star Kobe Bryant about the Lakers' diet, and yeah they are hungry. We also catch up with DJ Mbenga, Jordan Farmar, Pau Gasol, Shsha Vujacic, Vladi Radmanovic and big man Andrew Bynum, who tell us about playing with a chip on their shoulders and their chances of winning it all this year.
Check out the full video after the jump.

Sorry Lakers fans, not gonna happen. They'll be good, but not good enough. This year, look out for the Suns! Most think their window has closed, but they're just getting warmed up. The team has much better chemistry now.
Speaking of Lakers Suns, watch how Steve Nash totally disses the Lakers in this video. It's pretty funny.

Jeff, you are half right. The Lakers are not the team to beat, but neither are the Suns. I honestly don't see anyone beating the Celtics for at least 2 years and I am by no means a Celtic fan. Looking at the Suns roster, the ages of the core players jumps out. Is that really Matt Barnes starting??? PLEASE, get real. Hornets, Rockets, and yes, Lakers are better.

How is it the Lakers get better and the Suns get older and slower and you have people thinking the Lakers are going to just get worse? Has to be a Suns fan thinking with his heart and not his head. I do believe the Celtics will win the weak east once again, but will meet a different Lakers team in the finals this year and lose 4-2.
