I'll it. Lakers are notorious for blowing leads. Although these guys are TOSBs, they are still skilled, know their roles, and in limited minutes can still be effective. If they play 30 mpg, we're fcked. However, in a clearly defined role, their good for us.

We have a top 5 starting lineup with Nash, Kobe, MWP, Pau and Bynum. They will play significant mpg. Our bench was dead last in the playoffs. We will have a more efficient starting lineup. All we need now are players off the bench that won't get the "deer in the headlights" look on LA's big stage or the bed in the playoffs. Jamison, if we get him, was 17/6 as a starter. As a backup in LA, it should be about 13 ppg with higher efficiency playing against scrubs. He'll be a boost to last year's woeful bench.

Good pickup. Lakers are going to be good this season. If they get Dwight they are just going to be scary.

Odom > Jamison

Lakers still aren't better than their last championship team even with Steve Nash.

[Latarian Milton]

kobe should feel lucky to have won 2 rings outside of shaq's ass, though we know he'd have never won them w/o another superstar Pau playing alongside him

Jamison and his 40% shooting won't help much there. Lakers really need some athletic defenders, not more AARP members.

i guess lebron did it on his own right?

the source gets it right again.

They want to be able to so very badly that Lebron didn't have help and that he won it on his on...in fact he had more help than Kobe ever has

Nazr leaving OKC. Perkins, Ibaka, Collison, and Aldrch have to deal with Bynum, Pau, Hill, and Jamison. Difference? Nash getting our bigs shots in their sweet spots all game long. Advantage: LA.

OKC replaced Fisher/Ivey/Nazr with Hollis Thompson/PJ3/Thabeet, just saying. Thabeet

Lakers bigs aren't offensively challenged save Hill (and even then he can get you a double double easily, unlike Perkins)

[Michael Jordan.]

17 ppg last year.

Blake, Goudelock, Morris, McRoberts, Barnes last year. Definately an upgrade. =P
