How do you embed a post from lakers ground?
I think i found a site dumber than lakersground:
http://lakernation.com/forums/index....g-6/?p=1384258A quick point
in 2011, when we failed to repeat, not only did the players change but the dynamic had shifted from the very FUn 2008 team.
gone were little brothers: Ariza,Sasha,Jordan and powell.
Some people, okay most people thought the mistakes these players made were hurting the team, and Blake,Barnes and Artest seemed like upgrades.
but here is the thing, Kobe can get on anyone, but to Sasha,Kobe was damn near a God. To Jordan, he was a big brother, one that JF wanted to compete with at times, but there was respect there and LOVE. Ariza was Kobe's little homie.
Now , when you factor in Bynum, there was a big little brother thing, where you talk about a sharp kid, who had tools, . Dwight was the MAn previous, so instead of the CHIP on his shoulder that Bynum had, there was a slump in his shoulders from perceived lack of respect.
now, artest ,Barnes and Blake respected the of out Kobe.
i think Pau did not earn their respect in the same fashion. I think they respected Phil, but when you have been in the NBA 10+ years, you look at coaches differntly than young guys.
So, the chemistry changed.
I think that everyone is coming for little $$4 which is a good sign.
Kaman is the kind of guy that fits in most locker rooms. He is the guy who you laugh at, but still respect because he has some skill.
I think if you haveLo-Kobe-Pau...there is a certain chemistry that will unleash. Meeks looks up to Kobe and all of the vets, he is very similar to Sasha. I don't think we need Sasha per se.
If we get Nick young, we might win the le. I'm not joking and this isn't rose colored glasses.
i think this is oneof those years where the le is up for grabs. I think Indy is too young, I think the Clippers are in a position where they have higher expectations than what i see from that roster. Especially defensively.
Don't think San An makes it back.
i just think, this is a weird type year, where Miami is tired and indy is young, but anyway
first thing is first. Sign Nick Young and any brewer, and look out

Honestly as much as I love Kobe, we'll probably start winning more now.

Wade posted a very nice message about Kobe on instagram. He is probably relieved he won't have to defend Kobe on Christmas. Healthy or not, Kobe always owns Wade.

wade or lebron individually or as a duo has always own kobe
these s are delusional...
Their fans are so ing stupid it's ridiculous at times. They are the dumbest fans in the league. LOL at not wanting to guard Kobe or owned etc. The Heat would destroy that garbage team with him in or out.. Have fun with that contract LA fans.
I think it will be a good game if MVPau is healthy.
Man, remember when the Lakers used to be somebody?
Some time before the rotten corpse of Kirby?
You would get banned in a mother ing heartbeat if you mentioned the record over there. Henceforth however it shall be referred to as the record.
Someone about to get banned

Stop praising Boozer by looking his stats.
No matter how much points he got, he just give up by double on the defensive ends.
Literally a statue on defensive ends.
I've never seen a player this bad on defensive ends.Back to top

Yikes
That poll either is rigged, shows basketball ignorance, a short term memory, or simply who is hated more.
Kobe still has as many les won as Duncan and hasn't had the luxury of being a 2nd/3rd and sometimes 4th option since 2008.
Kobe still has more WC les than Duncan, 7-6.
Kobe still has more 1st team ALL NBA selections than Duncan, the most ever.
Kobe still has more 1st team All NBA D selections than Duncan, the most ever, actually TD might be tied here.
Kobe will be the only 30,000, 6,000, 6,000 player ever, only MJ and Kobe only like 5,000, 1000, 1000 playoff players. Look that up forget the stat. Kobe will be 3rd in regular season scoring at least, 3rd in playoff scoring and 1st in AS game scoring.
Duncan's got more MVPs, but it's also clear Kobe got screwed out of at least 1.
How about we look at Kobe vs Duncan H2H in the playoffs?
Kobe series 4-2, Kobe record 18-10, and Kobe scores more and shoots a better % than Duncan does H2H. Kobe owned Duncan's Spurs.
Kobe's basically getting the opposite send off as Derek Jeter. Just getting hated on out the door by the media, never seen anything like it in sports for an all-time great, it's sad.

Duncan is 38...Kobe is what, 36? If Duncan can do this late in the game, so can Kobe. Both Duncan and Kobe possess the skillset to have a big impact despite being in their mid thrities. It's about having a smart coach that can manage Kobe's minutes, a solid core group with a great leader like Kobe, and a great organization and FO.
We have a lot of the pieces we need...
Lakers can follow San Antonio's model, and get to their level.
We can get a great coach this season. We can find a solid player in the draft. We have the cap space to surround Kobe with the right role players. We have Kobe as a leader to mentor younger players...
We will have a better record than the Clippers next season. Mark my words.

You left out a few details from your assessment:
IF: Kobe had been as committed to building a deep roster around himself and taken a Duncan-type pay cut.
IF: We didn't waste years of upheaval and chaos on terrible coaching choices.
IF: We'd brought back Phil instead of MDA.
IF: We'd been more calculating in not letting Howard walk for zero compensation.
IF: we had ownership that was that 100% on the same page.
… then absolutely you are correct.Back to top

Give it up ALREADY!!!! It's amazing how many people here keep pointing to Kobe's extension as the sole reason why the Lakers can't field a compe ive team. It's just a tired argument. There are several factors that have put the Lakers in the position they are in currently. Typical ban wagon fans are always looking to point fingers at Kobe, when this man has given us 18+ years of excellence with more to come. So I ask if they Lakers did GIVE Kobe a smaller extension who would the rest of the money go to? What player(s) along with Kobe would have put the Lakers in the hunt again?

Funny - the preceding post points out SEVERAL different factors besides Kobe's contract..
That Jeggs guys is one special kind of re . Yeah let's follow the Spurs model even though Kirby Chucker is as anti-Spur as it gets.
After Kobe hit the only shot he made all night...
