Are the Lakers really in trouble?

In recent chronicle the NBA playoffs, two of the most frequently raised questions about two more prolific franchise league is almost always the same answer.
There are the Lakers really are in trouble? There Mavericks for real this time?
History usually says "no." Something about the move.
Mavericks sounded alarm Lakers with their 96-94 win in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals at Staples Center on Monday. 16-point third quarter to lead the Lakers went even faster than Jason Kidd can say "no good call", which certainly the view he had when he went back to Kobe Bryant enough with three seconds left to force the turnover on the forward Pau Gasol from. Kidd was fouled once, killing one of two free throws to secure two points.
It was more than likely, the opposite view that Kidd would be held Mavericks or moments earlier. After Kidd forced Bryant into reckless turnover in the paint with 20 seconds left, Pau Gasol was whistled for riding the back of Dirk Nowitzki as he caught the inbounds pass from Kidd.
Two-time champion Lakers, as coach Phil Jackson would later say, did Mavericks make in the end, and held the belief that they "give our game away." Nowitzki two free throws gave Dallas its first lead since late in the second quarter, and Mavericks were on their way to convince the masses that maybe it's too early to write them again.
Forget the part about bowing to the Mavericks in the first round in three of the last four seasons and focus on the way in which they win. They suffered a seemingly devastating losses to Portland in Game 4 of the first round, when they gave up 23 points, and then answered with a convincing victory in games 5 and 6 put the Blazers' fire. Recent trips have all the makings of a similar vein, with Dallas response, despite the second quarter of crisis in which a flurry of technical fouls, surreal half-court foul, which led the Lakers to three free throws and loss of self-control was their three-point lead at nine-point deficit in the final 2 minutes, 30 seconds of the game.
6.20 in the third quarter due to start little-used two-way play small forward Corey Brewer has changed everything. Then Nowitzki scored 11 of his 28 points in the fourth quarter, when at the end of defense on Bryant, Kidd had everything to do with the finish. Nowicki and C ° is not quite displaying shades of 2006 just yet, when they grew up in the finals to suffocation from Miami, but they may just be for real.
"I think so," Nowicki said when asked if his team has grown. "We have a lot of veterans, and they obviously went through a lot. Kidd had two finals earlier (from New Jersey). I was in the final. To do this, you have to go through some difficulties and fight through some things.
"Even in the playoff, there will be some tough losses and some tough games, but you have to restore."
Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle, whose team lost two of three matches of the regular season against the Lakers when placing an identical record (57-25), have long pointed out the sandy way his team as well.
"We were on 12 points in the first three or four minutes in Game 6 in Portland," he said. "It's hard (on the road). Do you have a hostile crowd, everything goes against you. But in those situations, I should not say that much. Our guys hang in. They come together in a time-outs. They encourage each other, and they continue to play. We have a form that the team is going to continue to play. "
Meanwhile, the Lakers are unlikely to shy to admit their concerns. As was the case against New Orleans in the first round, they dropped the knife to the enemy, who was seen as inferior.
As there was no case against the Hornets, that they will restore does not seem so sure. Especially, if this formula is repeated.
