Laker fans, I'm worried about the mental state of our squad at this point. Lamar says he won't report today and when he does he's not giving his all. Now Pau is devastated. Bynum is hurt he was being shopped. Our core is ed at the moment. Phil Jackson could have helped to smooth this travesty over but Mike Brown is a clown and the typically stupid look on his face will only make matters worse, especially given the change in coaching staff and assistants... Kobe cannot console these guys this time. They're not trying to hear he has to say. I will go on record and say that we won't be ringing again under the Kobe era. Our masterplan od snagging Paul and then Dwight won't materialize now and these guys will mail it in. However I'm ok with 5>4 that's all that matters.
If the league restores my faith and allows the trade to go through and we trade for D12 then I will beleive in the goodness of the leauge once againuntil then we're ed.
Pau Gasol Reportedly ‘Devastated’

A person close to (Pau) Gasol said the Lakers forward was “devastated” by news of the original trade, which was steered by team executive Jim Buss as much, if not more, than General Manager Mitch Kupchak.
The trade would have symbolized the Lakers’ shift from finesse, precision and depth in the frontcourt to speed and athleticism in the backcourt.

I agree but the fact is it won't happen..these guys are hurt and the human element is at work here...I'm faced with the new reality...All of our bigs are upset they were truly being shopped not rumors but reall being shopped..I don't know they'll recover from that...Pau and LO are very emotional guys and Drew is young so he'll naturally be upset. Cully I've faced reality unless those guys are traded we're ed. The damage is done...Stern did his work well...I would love for LO, Pau and Bynum to make a liar out of me but I just don't see it.
"I will go on record and say that we won't be ringing again under the Kobe era"
You took it as far as you could. Imagine still starting Kwame Brown
At least we're not settin' here with Paul this morning.
I'm sick to my stomach now, but, that woulda been worse.
It's a grim situation, Kool. To knee jerk it now would be compounding the mistake. This will not get fixed in the near future. We're going to have to see this thru to the end.
It's kind of funny the lack of loyalty being displayed by you Laker fans. When San Antonio didn't get their back-to-backs we stood by our team. You guys don't threepeat and it's time blow up the whole team... , look at the team that swept you! Old ass team that needed just one new piece in order to sweep you guys.
^Look at this . Finally shows up again.
Please. You got no room. You suffered The Skunker & 8 over consecutive Summers.
Clearly you're missing the point. Spurs fans suffered worse and not many are asking for 2 of the big 3 to be traded...
But, that ain't the point you made above. You threw the sweep in my face. You do that and I'm comin' right back over the top with The Skunker and 8.
Straighten up and get on with it, Hal.

Lol Newcastle I've been checking out your posts on LG
Looks like the block of the trade screwed over two teams.
And here you was just wanting one of us to get the screws.
tee, hee.
We're not the actual people that worked out a trade agreement with the Hornets and Rockets...
The Lakers are a dynamic machine...win some les make some changes whereas the Spurs are static / antique piece of equipment that goes until the wheels falls off or the bag needs to be changed.
Plain and simple...
& stand real still and hope nothing bad happens.

Exactly. Put some medicine on your bruised vagina and get to work.
no complaints here but not going to happen
We'll be judged on not what happened last night. Last night was the end of the beginning.
This morning is the beginning of the end. And we'll be judged on that plain.
I hope you're right about all your predictions..concerning the Lakers
Maybe CP3 and Dwight are bad news for us....I'm hopeless

"soft"The trade would have symbolized the Lakers’ shift from finesse, precision and depth in the frontcourt to speed and athleticism in the backcourt.
Ain't nothing wrong with that.
When the only thing worse would be having the trade go thru and yet you still feel sick at your stomach, it's bad.
Keep it strictly business, leave the vengeance for Paul and his people and Media...and get on with it.
i feel you, this is total bull . david stern and dan gilbert need to stop blowing each other and let teams do what they want. for other reasons..

This is what happens when no one in your ty city wants any part of their basketball franchise. Dealing with the NBA Hornets isn't as simple as dealing with a real ass owner.
Just heard in Espn radio that Dwight Howard could be heading to the Nets soon. Magic would get Lopez and sides while nets would get Howard and turkoglu.
yep...this deal ed us all the way aroundbut if Dwight and his people are as stupid as Cully says then he will indeed sign in NJ...He and Dwill won't be winning with Chicago and Miami in the east...I don't even think they get past Boston...
Cully is proving to be a prophet if D12 can make a decision that silly...![]()
