Gasol with Kobe as his sidekick is a pretty damn good duo . . .

Apparently, the Lakers can take the loss of both Ariza/Odom and still be the favorites and repeat...![]()

I agree, Kobe is arguably the best second option ever. Arguably.
Still the Champs so they're still the team to beat...
The Lakers are ridiculously stacked, with or without Odom.
Him on the team basically guarantees a ring.
There are a number of Lakers fans on this forum that are very realistic and objective.
Here comes the dumbest Laker fan on this board^
The Spurs, and NBA got significantly better. The Lakers are trying to retain the talent they had.
Laker fans are a special breed though..they have the amazing talent to contradict previous statements and opinions in record time..they flip-flop on players all the time, depending on what their argument is on that given day..
A lot of them have actually tried to make the argument that the team might be better off without Odom, if you read through some of those pages..it makes sense in their minds though, since they're still on the Wilt Bynum hype..
They truly are s ..I don't really care if I offend anybody, it's just the honest truth..they really annoy me..EASILY the least knowledgeable fans in the NBA, there's no debate IMO..then you mix in the obnoxiousness, the arrogance, and the fact that they actually cheer for alleged rapists and wife/animal-beaters..what a special breed..
the equivalent of Nazi followers..
You forget they tear their city up, turn over and burn police cars, smash store front windows, beat on their fellow citizens.....
Pretty premature thing to say, don't you think ?
Lakers upgraded with Artest, and a healthy Bynnum averaged 14 and 8 last season. those two alone upgrade the Lakers a lot
that's the reaction when they actually WIN the le..
quite the logic, isn't it?..
Harlem, they accused me of being you! lol
They tear their city up when they lose in the Finals too!
How is he supposed to stat healthy with nobody to spell him off the bench?
Which is why the Lakers had no trouble with the Nuggets.
The Lakers are stacked like a jenga tower with only one remaining piece holding everything up. And once that piece is pulled it will all come crashing down!!
step away from the ledge, dude. let's try not to trivialize the deaths of millions of people with fans of a basketball team. you're not laker fan lame, after all.![]()
Without Odom, I wonder where they are vis-a-vis talented teams in the league. Probably behind San Antonio, maybe Orlando and a healthy Boston. Depending on what happens, behind Cleveland, Dallas and Miami.
With Odom, they're about even with San Antonio.
How do you upgrade with a player already on the roster??![]()
I don't think a team that got soundly beaten by a pathetic Mavericks squad 4-1 in the 1st round despite having HCA can claim superiority over a team that just won the NBA championship.
Lol Ron Artest
Lol Ariza
Lol Odom
I don't think a team that got swept by the Pistons in the 1989 Finals can say they will be compe ive this year.
God, you're a goddamn disgrace.
