Yeah, and I know what's comin' soon: you'll be listing 'Cake Boy' Jefferson at 6.9". Don't even start that around here. Uh, uh. No way, Jose'.
He's 6'7" & he's stayin' 6'7".
Far from a push dude, those guys are too physical for you, not to mention they play with a lot more passion than Bynum and Pau. Bynum has no post up game. YOU agreed that your bench is weak when you commented that you don't need a bench to win a le. I was referring to the Lakers front line performance two years ago against Boston, not that this years Spurs team can't hold their own against the Lakers front line.How naive can you be. Having Bynum healthy will help. You being so near sighted, you fail to see that Boston is not as strong as they were two season ago. PJ Brown and Posey were huge for the C's two years ago. Powe is on his way out, and Baby is still up in the air. I think we match up well with the C's bigs. Bynum/Perkins, KG/Pau, Odom/Sheed. That's a push if you ask me, not to mention that our team is much more mature then they were in 08. If the C's lose Big Baby, then they don't stand a chance against us. I love how Spur fans use other teams to determine how far the Lakers will go, but not their own...
Oh, and according to you, our bench is weak, and yet we went to the finals back to back.

Lakers are nearly the same from last year, the replaced length and speed w/size and ??
A 90 yr old Dice and Ratliff are big improvements from our front line last year, not to mention Ian and Blair. Those rookies will be an upgrade for the Spurs, not to mention Mason returning to his natural position of SG. Spurs fan logic?! What the do you expect? You are in Spurstalk not fakertalk!
I think they are better than last season
If you are talking about the Spurs then yes.. Lakers no..
Both teams got better
If they are both healthy, watch out
Spurs yes, Lakers I'm not convinced. Spurs talent went up 3 notches, versus the Lakers ?? notches. They sure didn't improve their PG situation, but then again they go time.. time to raid the Grizzlies again. Buss is like the godfather.. you never know when he's going to call in a favor.
Maybe less notches for L.A, but they are the defending champs, so they didn't need to go up as many notches as we didSpurs yes, Lakers I'm not convinced.

We are still going to kick their asses though
I love that Laker fans seem to focus on the Spurs.
That's so unbeavable I can't beave it myself
will be flowing uphill soon enough...You're too far down below for me to even notice. But don't worry, you know what they say about .
you are starting to sound like a total attention .
HAHA says you..
Why you es act like repeats are the norm?
It ain't. If you can remember to when Riley made that promise of the repeat, why did he do that? It's because it hadn't been done in a really long time. It's a cyclical thing. Maybe you guys are on it, maybe not. The Spurs haven't yet won an even year le, and they live to stop your evil horde.
And if you must know, the 4-letter hates us so much, that they talk about us only if we accomplish something or we get beat by one of their darlings like you. They hate you but they love to talk about you. What's worse? Accomplishing something but limited media coverage so no one knows of your accomplishment, or having that same media berate you LAKERS for being failures, other than the le last year, for the last 7 seasons prior, you were failures.
Back to that again? Did you see that the team had Dominique Wilkins at SF for that year. Loss of DRob, Elliott, and Chuck Person. Yeah, tank...sure, whatever.At least we didn't tank games just to get a high pick.
Can't control the lotto balls and statistically, Boston had the best chance. Why tank if you can't control the balls? Perhaps, you're still mad that the Forum's last game was a sweepage by the 99 team. Maybe that's why a pre-season game is being played there. Too much bad memories

It's our cross, Man, and we bear it in silence. Media carries your water, your end of the log, they're your personal bagman. As Lakers we neither expect such treatment nor would we accept it if it were forthcoming. We'll go on to the end as we always have: alone, forsaken, inside the wire. We'll acknowledge our trespasses (Boston '08) as we trespass against those who have come for us (Sacramento '02) and we'll end them, because it's easy to do justice, but, very hard to do right.
Spurs may not have repeated but their main milestone of being a true contender for as long as they have is pretty much just as rare and impressive an accomplishment. Kobe may have repeated, but he's also never always been on a great team.
"Spurs may not have repeated"---
CWEBB & Wallace may not have walked away from Horry---
& the 2000 Lakers team was pure & hearty. Daddy had no agenda, he was just Shaquille. Harper, Fox and Shaw were splendid and true professionals.
Your points are specious, ming. You have not repeated & Kobe has been on a great team.
Obviously you need to repeat in order to get your monkey off your back. You're just f'in lucky the roles ain't reversed, cuz if we hadn't repeated Media woulda took off after us, hammer & tong in hand many a year ago. But, there ain't any % in torturing you Spurs fellows. Strictly hands off, you're left to yourselves. Your only punishment is: you haven't repeated.
re-read my post. i said Kobe has not always been on a great team.
and i know that the Spurs' monkey (lol) is not having repeated. but still, i'm happy with what they've accomplished, and that they didn't have any stretch where the team was for three years ... we've set ourselves apart from many teams past and resent in that respect. who will be the next team that can achieve greatness that SA has in three decades (if they keep it up for a couple mroe years)? it's an amazing feat.
and the media scrutinizes LA more than any other team for obvious reasons - reasons which they've benefited from more than anything else. you're not going to get my sympathize with LA because of that.
You're right. The Lakers are the trendsetters of the league.
The Lakers started the repeat ways, they ended it, and they are poised to start it again.
I hadn't had my first cup of coffee, but, that Kobe statement is still a bit convoluted.

And we neither want nor need your sympathy. We wear your derision & contempt proudly. It fuels our efforts & methods.
you just notice this??
dudes are obsessed due to their insecurity
You can say the same about the Spurs fans..just as bad as many L.A fans.
difference is. This is spurstalk.com
You don't see Spurs fans visiting lakerbabble making posts and looking for reassurance.
They got no case, they're bereft of back-to-back empiricals.
Until you repeat, we're on top and we'll continue to pound that pooty on a more or less daily basis.
