In today's NBA having a superstar doesn't even mean that much.... look at how much the Knicks suck with Melo, or how Davis is having one of the best individual seasons of modern times and still his team will not make the playoffs. Even IF the Lakers could get Love or Marc Gasol, they'd still suck LOL.They alienated Pau Gasol and look how he blossoms in Chicago. He is BETTER than Derrick Rose! Lakers done fucked up big time and it will take decades to recover.

Kobe was the only player who could be considered anywhere close to superstar on this laker roster, and that wasn't guna cut it.......now, pair kobe with a Russell Westbrook or Anthony Davis, and that's automatic contention. not really that hard to figure out.

& couldn't keep Dwight in town despite that. Phenomenal leadership.
