I say clear the entire deck! Start fresh in 2014. But around here that's not possible because for some reason we are supposed to win a championship every year (forget all the being smart stuff)...

I say clear the entire deck! Start fresh in 2014. But around here that's not possible because for some reason we are supposed to win a championship every year (forget all the being smart stuff)...
Right!? We won 5 championships from 2000 - 2010 and ESPN is saying that the Spurs are the team of the decade... what a joke!
he is going to finally admit that he and Nash are really cyborgs and that Stern convinced the Lakers to tank it so that next year the team can dominate and create even bigger headlines...
Well said... stick to the 2014 plan folks. People here better get used to the idea that we are bringing the same team back next year (hopefully with Dwight) unless Mitch has a serious trick up his...
I don't know about anybody else here, but saving $67 million sounds pretty good. I wish we could amnesty more than one player to be honest...
Kevin Love can't leave because he signed a 4 year extension in 2012 with an opt out at 2015. He can demand a trade, but he just can't leave... If the Wolves were to agree, I doubt that Ridnour is...
I think anyone that really doesn't think about what is best for the franchise really shouldn't be rooting for the Lakers... bottom line
trade for depth. no one in their right mind is giving a top 10 for an aging center, because top 10 pick teams usually suck. This means they are not going to gamble on an aging star when they can have...
I am still not buying the Kobe back in 9 months deal that everyone in here is claiming because none of us are doctors. And as for the Nique compare, Kobe is 34 and has way more miles than Nique did...
No
Kobe can not be ok with it all he wants, but the fact remains this is a business and hard business decisions are made all the time. Could we have forced Shaq and Kobe to get along back in the day to...
THIS! I am against amnestying Kobe, but that is my emotions talking. The objective business side of me says that it makes absolutely all the sense in the world! People here can't have it both ways:...
Without Kobe we should be a team that is trying to pound it down low... Too bad D'Antoni is too stu...stu...stupid to get that.
Oh and I vote for nobody... Stick with the 2014 plan... Lots of cap space with or without Dwight and/or Kobe...
I know that it is sacrilegious, but someone wrote an article about the possibility of amnestying Kobe so that he could do a restructure and give his Achilles time to heal. The fly in the ointment...
TWC money or not, the Lakers are not going to pay three coaches salaries... They should have hired Phil, didn't, now they have to live with D'Antoni...
stick to the 2014 plan... although the Amnestying Kobe part is intriguing... let Paul stay with the Clips. I would rather start looking at even younger point guards like Curry, Irving, or Lillard. I...
playing time for one game isn't a factor with Achilles injuries... if it were, young players would be going down all the time. It's all coincidence. Even Gary Vitti is saying this.
We have to win out to have a chance... If OKC realizes that they do not have a shot at 1st place in the conference they may start resting players. Same with Memphis, especially knowing that they will...
... it were already 2014 and we only had Dwight under contract so that we can start over with new YOUNG players... guys like Klay Thompson, Damian Lillard, or Kyrie Irving would be a good start....
How about we get back to reality and recognize that Pau is not going to get you Deron Williams or Danny Granger... He is still good at center but not great Deron and Granger are franchise faces, Pau...
LOL! I think you mean Ervin "Magic" Johnson. I do not know who that Irving guy is...
you can make a connection again if you bring back Phil. not necessarily on the court, but in the front office. Bringing Phil back brings back days of winning championships, re-connects the old with...
I agree. I think Jim and Mitch are in too deep now. Trading Dwight, Pau would essentially be giving up on the season and an admittance that they did not make the correct moves (the biggest being...
Sad day in Laker land for sure... Best owner in pro sports hands down!
