Think of that, the Celtics have missed the playoffs 13 times since then, 15 times since, and the Heat 8 times in their existence. The Lakers are the most consistent franchise in the NBA. One bad season is a drop in the bucket.
Here is the thing, the Lakers need to destroy and rebuild. I say their priority must be to do everything in their power to keep Dwight Howard. Hell I say trade for Kevin Love while he is cheap and coming off injury. Get young talent around Howard now, forget making the playoffs this season and start to rebuild a younger team. But let the record show that when it comes to rebounding and building a competitive team, no one has a history like the Lakers, no one.

Howard is not a franchise player...time to get that notion out ya minds.

gotta be honest, though...mike d'antoni is probably a worse coach than mike brown. and thats a pretty hard feat to accomplish. i think not hiring phil for this roster has the potential to go down as one of the worst moves in laker history.

he is a franchise player, just like how gasol was like a mini franchise player in memphis,
they acn be the franchise player, but that franchise isnt going anywhere. dwight should never be a first option in any team.

Yeah, I was kind of thinking that when they didn't even sit at the table with PJ even though it had been announced that they had reached out to him for the position after they fired Mike Brown.
