"Luke Walton is a bonafide scrub! No disrespect whatsoever, but he can't play!"
Can't wait
The NBA is getting more scripted than the WWE.

Exactly! Nothing more.
I'm sure the call is already in to their Memphis farm team.The lakers ballboy for CP3 or D.Will would be prety nice. I wonder if he's just trying to scare the players into playing harder or really looking to move some ppl.

It maybe motivational, but I think he should consider a move ...not a huge one. Unless a great bargain falls in to our laps, but we need something. PJ and Mitch said the EXACT thing I said after Sunday losing to elite teams is not the problem ...losing to elite teams AT HOME is the concern. If you cant defend your homecourt how are you going to have big playoff wins on the road?
Blake and Barnes were supposed to be the spark to boost a "bored" team, but Barnes is hurt and Blake (though not as awful as some state here) has not been enough. If the suns gave up on the season Grant Hill would be a great move ...he helps defensively, great passer, has played in an offense similar to the triangle and even at his advanced age adds speed and play-making ability.Plus he is a "hungry" vet that can STILL play.
I think Melo "type" moves are a pipe dream and i would hate to see LO or Pau go ...dont want to lose Bynum either, but if we got back a star I would welcome that with open arms ...but our defense may be worse ...like i said if we cant muster up the resolve on Tuesday and Thursday then i will be more apt to make a move ... right now? ... just "concerned" not in panic or crisis mode.
Hill stated yesterday he doesn't want to uproot his family. He's here and he won't budge and he's content without a ring. That's what he said and he was firm about it.
I dont doubt him. If that move came it would have to start with the Suns , i doubt he would do it on his own volition.
But people have said that (like Camby) and then he loved Portland now he says the same thing he said in Denver he does not want to up root his family from Portland, like he said he did not want to leave the Clippers before that.
Point is, when you get in a better situation you may change your mind. Plus Arizona and L.A. are pretty close ...travel between is pretty easy I have driven and flown that plenty of times, but I know his wife battles illness, a move maybe even tougher for him.
Hey, it's not like he is the one piece that = a 3peat just giving an example of a smaller move that could be a big help.
Gasol recharged!
At least Kobe has repeated, three times.
Duncan is bereft in that department, Cry, and you know it, sassafras.
You can LOL all you want I dont give a flying fyuck about Kobe's legacy?! I care about the franchise i have followed for almost 30 years above any player. ALL i care about is les.
You think Heat fans gives a about having Wade, Lebron and Bosh?
Did Celts fans complain that Bird had Mchale, Parish and DJ?
Or that we Laker fans down-grade magic for Kareem, scott and Worthy?
les are all that matter and repeating, twice is much more difficult ...(something you probably dont get, because you havent seen it up close)
I will take any help we can get ...

I don't think the Pistons would ever do it but one can only hope..
That's because you're a Lakers fan first, not a Kobe knob-slobber. Can you say the same for most of your insecure brethren?
Not sure, but I would trade even Kobe for the right price. There are no "sacred cows" obviously I dont want to see Kobe trade and I would expect Wade, Dwight or some other SUPERstar in return ... but anything that betters the franchise I am for.
I was ALMOST ready for the Deng package or a Dirk package if Kobe didnt stop ing ...
Killa with the goods.
If you guys hadDirk, you could have trotted out a lineup of Fisher, Dirk, Odom, Gasol, Bynum, just for kicks.
Rudy Gay sounds like a nice fix, tbh.
"Do it Mitch" will pull another Gasol goes to Hollywood trade. . . some bona fide scrubs (VJJ & Walton), a pine rider rookie, a second rounder and a late first rounder and the Lakers get: CP3 from the NBA Hornets.
"Regular season doesn't matter... but we're panicking anyway."
I admit it, I was for that [Deng package like my Luva was.] I figured:::let someone else pay the freight on Bryant there. We'd skimmed off all the cream.
I was wrong.
Of course it worked out well for us but just saying even though Kobe is my CURRENT favorite Laker he is not "untradeable"
And like i said I am not in panic mode. I have not asked for a major move ...only a minor one. Regular season doesnt mean a lot but you still dont want to have to make a le run as anything lower than a third seed a 2 seed would be even better ...
I have not advocated trading Pau, kobe, LO or Bynum which is the core of the team ...
We owe Bryant now. I can see that now.
He has not made a false move since he quit in the Phoenix Series.
He went after Buss and made the old man live up to his word. It had to be that way. He signed off on Jackson's return after Jackson wrote that unconscionable book. To this day I marvel at Bryant's grace there. That book was painful and embarassing to comprehend. How Kobe found the inner strength to move past it is beyond me. I hold a grudge forever over hard Tootsie Rolls at QT for Christ sakes.
He signed off on the Artest acquisition because he knew that Odom wanted it, needed it, and was owed it after Florida in '09. Kobe didn't begrudge because it wasn't his idea. He embraced it on Odom's behalf.
Bryant fights mental illness. We all have our demons, our battle(s). I admire him for fighting his in the open.
I forsaked him once. I'll never do it again. Ever.
1. Lol
2. Wtf?
3. Lol?!
Did you lock Katie-girl in the basement again? What's with all this prose today?
