Your 5 most heartbreaking Laker Moments

[LAKERMANIA]

It can be anything from someone dying to losing in the NBA Finals

1. 2008 NBA Finals Game 4 (the game where we gave up a 25 point lead in the finals )
2. Dr. Buss's death
3. Chick Hearn's death
4. 2004 NBA Finals
5. 2006 1st round vs. Suns game 7

Tragic Johnson

[Chacarron]

2006 1st round game 7
2011 2nd round against the Mavs game 4 (I have never been as irritated as I was that day)
Dr. Buss's death
The day Sasha got traded
2008 NBA Finals altogether

Don't know the order but that is my top 5.

[MetroMan]

1- when Shaquille Oneal got traded for Brian grant, Lamar odom, and Caron butler
2- 2004 nba finals
3- 2008 nba finals
4- when kobe demanded a trade
5- Tim Thomas
6- this year in general

[GailGoodrich]

1. Magic's HIV announcement.
2. Losing to Boston in 83/84. (Silver lining: cutting Boston's heart out twice in the next 3 years)
3. Magic and Scott going down with Riley flu (hamstrings) in 87/88.
4. Jerry West's agony.
5. Shaq and Kobe being unable to coexist on the same team. I will always blame each of them individually for being 100% responsible for this tragedy in my life, and their childish mother****ing behavior counts heavily against both of them when I consider their rankings as all-time Lakers. *******s. They could have owned the NBA.

Lakers won one in 04 but yeah, that still really sucked

[Pearljammer II]

Yes you're correct... Lakers did win game 2... but we got so destroyed in the series... but that series came to be known as a "five-game sweep."

[championships]

It did feel like a sweep with how badly the Pistons ran all over the Lakers
