Lebron willed his team to the finals last year while the lakers were out in the 1st round. dont give me that eastern conference bullshit either
kobe is the real mvp right now, haters dont except the fact about it... lebron fans were like kobe fans like 2 years ago when kobe was ranked for mvp but didnt have many wins so nash got it... now that being said with a great team and getting his team involved the way we all seen so far this season and being a team with over 20+ games outa .500.. he is easily mvp this year.. seriously the man has done just about everything to deserve it and if he dont win it this year.. the league must be blind!

If Kobe wasn't with the Lakers, Bynum, Gasol, & Odom could still lead the Lakers to the playoffs. Even in the West.How can you say that when teams like Houston, Denver, Golden State, Sacramento, and Portland are struggling for an 8th seed with their star players healthy? Bynum, Gasol, and Odom? are you kidding me? They're damn good players, but you don't have a clear-cut franchise star on that team...Bynum in a few years could definitely be a franchise player, but if the Lakers of last year barely made the playoffs WITH Kobe, what makes you think they'd make it with Gasol in his place? Especially with all the fucking injury problems we've had and especially considering how much stronger the west has gotten...

Add Gasol and Ariza to that equation and you have a playoff team.

That doesn't mean they'd be in the playoffs without him, especially when a team like Denver can't even get into the playoffs at full strength. Come on, now. And with Bynum+Ariza going down, there'd DEFINITELY be no playoffs for LA.

And I laugh at you of all people arguing this. Last year you said the Lakers bench was a potential playoff team.
