I'd do Gasol and Odom in a heartbeat. Arenas is a wildcard and looks done, but whatever.
Fisher got old over night? He was decent in the 2007-2008 regular season(or maybe anyone looked decent compared to Smush Parker), and he totally sucked once the post-season started. He was getting dominated by Williams in the WCSF that year and it almost went 7 cause of him. In 2009 he was terrible the entire year, and he redeemed himself with that three pointer. Last year he was terrible in the regular season, but played surprisingly well in the post-season. And this year, he just sucked ass. It was expected.

-Get a real backup PG, or a starting one
- Find a sucker to take Artest's and Blakes contracts
- Pre injury Barnes will definitely help you guys
- Send Gasol to the tree of woe and whip his ass into a MAN
Bynum & Howard gonna go well together? Not really. They are both similar players
Plus I dunno if Magic do the deal with the meltdown Gasol had and his 17 million a year contract
I don't care if it sounds like it wont work. It's Dwight and Bynum.
I don't think they'd go for it either. He's damaged goods. A pussy.
I wouldn't do bynum and gasol together, but id do one with lamar.
If you get dwight and bynum, you'd just trade bynum for something else
Lakers are done, gasol is clearly over the hill, so he won't be able to carry bean to championships anymore. You'd have to make a trade on the level of the "gasol collusion" get get back into it. With overblown scrub contracts like, blake and walton, good luck with that.
Hook up gasol with dirk's ex(use dr.buss connection to get her out of jail) - gasol problem solved.
That leaves getting a decent point guard and serviceable bench players. Doable.
Honestly you're lucky to have what u won the past 3 years.
Last year; barring injury to Perkins Boston would of won that game 7.
Prior in 09 the KG injury primarily, also injuries to Yao/Jameer helped bring the first le.
and in '08 the Gasol robbery trade helped catapult from first rd fodder to elite status.
So be thankful what'd u had thus far. Much luck has gone your way, Laker fans
All the Lakers have to do is trade the Big Spanish Vag and they'll be good for another 2-3 Finals appearances.
The Spurs and Celtics though?
The only trade-able assest the Spurs have is a sex criminal getting paid minimal money. Good luck with that.
Good one. Did you hear the one about the priest and the rabbi?
tee, hee.
Ironic considering the Lakers have the most untradeable sex criminal in the league making 30 million a season. Good luck with that.
Also the Spurs have plenty of assets...young players (Hill/Blair/Neal) on cheap contracts to pair with ty players (RJ/Bonner) with crap contracts or a good player with a reasonable contract (Parker).
Team: San Antonio Spurs

wouldnt be another easy ring .... they'd become the worst free throw shooting team in the league and still have ty perimeter defense .......
They should play for PHX .... they'd fit right in
The frontcourt is not the problem. The backcourt is. We are slow, old, and there are no shooters there.
Gasol/Odom/Bynum should not be touched, unless you can get Dwight Howard. Kobe obviously can't be touched. Anyone else should be expendable to get some athletes and shooters in the backcourt.
People who can dunk in the open court and hit wide open three-pointers....pretty much the bare minimum of whats required from NBA players, yet the Laker backcourt can't do it.
A painful end to this Laker's run for the cubby.
Perhaps, but,
Kobe: 5
tired old bag Duncan: 4
will see me thru.
