The truth about the Lakers
Tay:
The Lakers have the personnel to play D for the most part, but they make too many mistakes. The big athletic PG is Brown, they have Powell and Mbenga off the bench who can D in the paint and crash boards. They could maybe use one more wing defender, but Walton hasn't even been that bad off the bench. They need to toughen up, you can't give up so many easy dunks and layups. You have 6 fouls to use in a game, you can't be afraid to use a few of them to prevent the easy basket.

Not true at all. The fucked up part is, 5 years ago we signed Karl Malone and Gary Payton because our defense was wack and teams were abusing us with p&rs...5 years ago! What's different defensively? Fisher is STILL out there getting burned and Phil Jackson has the audacity to say Fisher's D isn't a problem. Dumb coach = dumb players.
The Lakers have one of the most talented and versatile rosters EVER. Therefor, if we don't win a championship with this team we go down in history as the biggest group of losers ever.

The driving small man has been the prob for a couple years now.
