Whats next for the Lakers?
IKON:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
yeah payton is so underrated its not even funny >:(
i always thought that fisher was a good back up point guard, even when he was playing behind Nick Van Exel
he has developed nicely though ;D
id rather see the lake show go after a power forward cause honestly guys, even though we did win the last three championships (yeah yeah we lost this year) ive noticed that power forwards kill us
i mean guys like garnett, webber, wallace, novitzky, and kenyon martin in last year playoffs put up awesome numbers against us and this year duncan did it to us (even though he is a center)
we need a powerful presence at the power forward or center spot (besides shaq)
i wish elden campbell would have become the perfect compliment for shaq in the middle, but that fool never played good when shaq was in the lineup, he averaged like 20 points with Shaq out lol lol

^^true, but ive also noticed that Point guards kill yall. lol. There are alot of really good poward forwards in tha West. Goin after PJ Brown wouldnt be a bad move at ALL. Payton is jus SO disrupting. If u can shut down the other teams point guard, u can shut down their offense.
Don Jacob:
if i was mitch right now i'd be calling these people
zo- dude is set to come back next year, his heart is in miami but him and shaq were (idon't know about now great friends in the early 90's)
he'd be a great back up center until he got his groove back and the IDEAL power forward in the starting line up come playoff time.
key to getting him would be shaq and kobe contstantly calling him to persuade him, an honest sale to him from gary vitti with his health problems and figure out something with the cap
i don't want to see pippen on the lakers that'd be dipping in the past too much and he's aging , and doens't get along with kobe.
Karl Malone would be great for 1 year but i think he'd retire after that we need someone for 4-5 years
Payton would be very ideal and bad at the same time you'd have to almost split him and fisher's time in half to ensure equality becuase fisher is coming into his own and payton is heading over the hill (kinda an equilibrium here) but the chemistry would be great shaq and payton are GREAT friends payton can PASS payton can defend and his ability and style fits the triangle perfectly
jermaine o'neal would be cool; he'd cost alot of money but would be greeeeeeeeat to have, he has youth and ability and he'd be great with shaq in or out of the game i'd say we'd have to do a trade for this guy and give up some draft picks or something
jason kidd should stay in NJ he's got a good thing going out there
ben wallace would be another great dude to get but he'd cost too much plus it'd take the attention off shaq too much and i don't think he'd like that
so i say get someone who's got 6 years left in them and can play both the C and PF then go after a SG/SF type of player who has defense

LAKRES NEED A FUCKIN BENCH!!
truemaster:
I wouldn't mind having Malone on our squad. The early younger Malone would clog up the middle, but this older Malone likes taking that jumper more. He does have a nice jumper, and if he needs to, he can still bang with the best of them. PJ Brown would probably be a good fit, he likes to bang and crash the boards which is what the Lakers desperately need. Juwan Howard would be more of a 3rd scorer type, more of an offensive threat than a defensvie one. Payton has been showing a lot of interest in joining the Lakers according to his agent. He is seriously thinking about taking an extreme pay cut to come to LA.
