Will the Lakers make the playoffs?

[4>0rings]

Last time they had to depend on Kobe they couldn't make the playoffs. Now that Gasol is all but out mentally, Odom traded, tits mcgee likely to be injured, no D12/Paul... they are going to have to depend on Kobe again. Plus they are suffering from too many white men on the team.

Is there any hope for the Lakers?

[redzero]

Nuggets, Blazers, Mavs, Thunder, Grizzlies, and Spurs are the only teams that I think have a big chance of making the playoffs besides the Lakers. Even though the Lakers have gotten weaker, so has the West as a whole.

Kobe: 5

tired old shit bag Duncan: 4

Clippers will be 8th seed IMHO

Billups
Gordon
Caron Butler
Blake Griffin
Kaman

Pretty stacked tbh

[Sportcamper]

Kobe, Pau & Bynum are still an impressive line-up…Lets see what develops…Lakers will be fine…

[Killakobe81]

Laugh out loud (had to spell it), if we didnt make the playoffs ... you do realize Austin Rivers or Harrison Barnes will be in purple and Gold right?!

Yall better hope we don't hit the lottery ... Right now salary caps makes it tougher for us to grab a star ... giving us a lotto pick, I bet we don't end up with: Greg Oden, Roy, or Olowokandi ...we the Lakers.

[Killakobe81]

And I m guessing we dont take a Oden type over Durant either ...:rollin

[pass1st]

Making the playoffs isn't a big deal, they should have no trouble with it. Will they make it past the first round is a good question, depends how things change from now.

[Baseline]

The chances of all three (Bryant, Bynum, Pau) staying helathy all season are ZERO.

Trading Odom was monumentally stupid.

The Lakers are done.

[cobbler]

The Lakers are done.

If we had a championship everytime I heard that... we would have like 16 or so.

oh wait....

[Banzai]

Probably crawl in.

[DPG21920]

Why are Laker fans so mad? They call people like me idiots for saying their deal was crap. They literally laugh in my face at the thought I would say NO would get a much better deal. I mean, it's like they are a little salty that the Clippers swooped in and got Paul, what gives? LA is still a good team, so why all the hate towards people with valid basketball takes like myself?

At least Killa was man enough to apologize to me. :toast

I think we know the answer now...

[LkrFan]

Nah - they need to tank for Austin Rivers. :elephant

[ElNono]

They should've traded Barnes with Odom... for free

World peace was keeping the Lakers close tonight... until The Choke

[024]

lakers are still good enough to get the second or third seed.

[Giuseppe]

Thank Christ he didn't do that in the 4th quarter on June 17th, 2010, eh?

tee, hee.

He wasn't World Peace then

[Giuseppe]

...The name changed, but, not that shot.

[21_Blessings]

Is there any hope for the Lakers?

Let me look at the Spurs' roster for a second...

Short answer: Yes

[Robz4000]

Anyone actually saying the Lakers won't make the playoffs is retarded. As long as they have their frontline and Kobe can produce, they'll be there.

They should make the playoffs. They just need to get accustomed to getting Kobe the ball and moving out of the way. Then when Kobe doinks the shot, Pau or Bynum can clean it up and World Peace can save the day from the bench.

they probably will. but they are 1st round fodder.

[Muser]

Somebody needs to tell ezau that the Vanessa 2.5 thing stopped being funny a while ago.

[Giuseppe]

It was never funny. It was wrong from day one.

I beseeched you fellows not to do it, but, you wouldn't listen.

5-4 Kobe is pure & unadulterated, like "I smell skunk." was.

2.5 was childish, reactive and vulgar.

[Muser]

I was referring to the picture of Kobe with his titles split into 2, that got a laugh out of me tbh. Should of been left at that but some faggots have to run things into the ground, he probably likes Family Guy too.

[Spur_Fanatic]

Plus, it's not 2.5, but 1.5 or 0.5. Shaq also has a claim on Kobe's rings. So it all depends on who takes first, Vanessa or him.

Please. You've constantly criticized Shaq for losing half his fortune to his wife, calling it a "tragedy" when someone loses half of his fortune, and prior to The Divorce, you commended Kobe for staying married.

Your shtick was even less funny.

Plus, by same standards:

Horry 7
Kobe 5

The truth is never a laughing matter.

[Giuseppe]

I do.

In this particular case, I put my Walter Mitty on in the belief that Bryant had given up his addiction to the slap & tickle lifestyle. It was commendable. I figured if he was going to fall off the wagon it woulda happened early on after the Eagle rape. It turns out that never happened. He's been bumpin' & grindin' ever since Eagle. If she can't do what Kirilenko's wife did and grant carte blanche to Kobe then she should leave him to his own devices. He'll find his contentment and she'll find peace of mind.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

He lost half of his total fortune, you yourself have called that a "catastrophe"

[Giuseppe]

Plus, by same standards:

Horry 7
Kobe 5

It's the truth, but, a vacuous one.

Kobe 5-4, in association with (the tired old shit bag) transcends the Ellis ST family of Forums.

[Spur_Fanatic]

Horry 7-5 sounds like cop code, I like it.

[Giuseppe]

He lost half of his total fortune, you yourself have called that a "catastrophe"

I do.

In this particular case, Bryant was fighting himself and his addiction to "pornography" & the dark world. No amount of monetary gain or loss is going to sate that draw, that hunger, that need for that lifestyle. He didn't know that before Eagle. He knew it after Eagle. That's why he returned to it,,,like? Yes, like a dog returns to it's vomit.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

According to your words, Kobe has created a catastrophe for himself. That's it and that's all.

[Giuseppe]

According to your words, Kobe has created a catastrophe for himself. That's it and that's all.

No. The catastrophe for Kobe would to continue to stay married to Vanessa and for her to continue to forbid him his onions. She would not condone or grant him permission to live both lives. He couldn't quit that life. The catastrophe would be for Kobe to stay in that marriage. He would be devastated without his "special" onions. He'd be empty.
