First off I think Luva was right on the coaching situation when Phil retires...as far as not signing B. Shaw...if we're gonna be 4-peating you need a coach the refs will respect and I think Jerry Sloan would fit the bill nicely...plus you don't want the players getting too comfortable...Sloan would pose a nice challenge for Kobe....
Now for my main point...Do we do a swap of Dwight for Drew or do we swap Gasol for Dwight and go with a twin towers approach. I guess the risk factor is that neither Drew nor Dwight are as skilled as Pau nor do they have his range so that could be an issue. But defensively we'd be sick...Also do we forget about CP3 and go after Russell Westbrook an LA Native. Westbrook would be cheaper and just as good plus we get to keep Odom and Ron Ron for more defense and size...
Option 1:
Kobe
Westbrook
Dwight
Bynum
Artest
Option 2:
Kobe
Westbrook
Dwight
Pau
Artest
