    Who said it would? Who said it needs to be?

    The Lakers are an offensive juggernaut. All they need is to be able to play good enough defense. They need to be good enough that they aren't getting out-rebounded by 10-15 every game. They need to be good enough that they can lock down their defense and get timely stops when the game is the line. They need to be good enough that they can rely on their defense to not let 24 pt leads evaporate in a matter of minutes. Get my drift?

    Offensive juggernaut? Theyre a good offensive team but i think the Celtics exposed the Lakers "Juggernaut"

    The Lakers faced no team like yours all year. You were the better team and you manhandled my Lakers. They were better than any WC team that the Lakers faced by a longshot. Congratulations and we'll do it again next year, hopefully with different results.

    I'm going to send a shout out to the lakers as well. They had a great run, they did what no one expected them to do this season. We came up short but props for giving us what we have grown to expect from a Los Angeles team, a chance to win a le. You have no chance, if you don't play.

    Now Mitch, get to work and fine tune this team. Thank Gasol for everything he did for us last season and send him on his way. I would keep Lamar and get rid of Gasol. Give Indiana a call and see if they'll go for a Gasol trade for Oneal. Call Memphis and see if we can get Miller and definitely Sign Ron Artest and that'll do it. We have the resources to get some very good players, let's do it!

    It was fun, but I have to run. Have a Great Day!
    I honestly believe a healthy Spurs team might've beaten the Celtics. The Spurs match up well against Boston more than our Lakers. Go back to 2004. Yes we beat San Antonio but we were murdered by Detroit. The following year, the same Detroit team that beat us were beaten by the same Spurs team (basically) we beat the year before.

    And now, if the Spurs recharge and do some tweaking maintaining their Championship core, I won't be surprised if the Spurs and Celts will face each other in 2009 with San Antonio reclaiming Larry for the West (odd year favors the Spurs)

    People on here are underrating Bynum, and I would say Laker fans aren't even overrating him. 13/10/2 in less than 30 minutes per game is good production, and not to mention the effect it has of (assuming no roster changes, which is an unsafe assumption) allowing Gasol and Odom to play their natural positions and it takes Vlad Rad (who Hollinger notes was one of the worst starters of ALL playoff teams) out of the starting lineup. I wouldn't say he necessarily improves their offense,but he definitely improves their defense and rebounding. Bynum had a PER of 22 this year and is one of the Lakers 2-3 best defenders. THe Lakers are going to be strong next year.

    Another thing, if Artest ever were to sign for the MLE with the Lakers, it's just over for the NBA
