Antoine Walker, Steve Nash, Marquis Daniels, Rookie, Laetner..ALL for SHAQ

Mavericks are insane? If they get Shaq, that's their championship....Imagine Shaq, Nowitzki, Stackhouse, Finley...You are insane, man...Antoine Walker? I pray to God he never gets to wear a Laker jersey, and who the fuck needs Steve Nash? Lakers don't need anymore guards.. They're looking to fill in the Forward position now... ::)

you have to consider the times those teams that made the playoffs were playing in. back then the east teams were dominant and it wasn't a struggle to make the playoffs for any west team.
today in 2004 where the west teams are more dominant, the 8th seed is about 8 games above 500. all you have to do is look at the 8th seed from last year and ask yourself... could a laker team with no kobe and no shaq beat that team the majority of the time? i think the 8th seed was denver and i remember they barely got by them during the regular season and that was WITH kobe and shaq. you're going to tell me that they could beat them without 'em?

I am considering the times...It was Shawn Kemp & Gary Payton's Sonic team...Karl Malone & John Stockton's Jazz team...Hakeem Olojuwan & Clyde Drexler's Rocket team...Charles Barkley & Dan Majerle's Sun team...David Robinson & Sean Elliot's Spur team...Tim Hardaway & Chris Mullin's Warrior team...Cliff Robinson & Jerome Kersey's Blazer team...Then there was the Lakers; the Lakers of Eddie Jones & Cedric Ceballos...Don't tell me the West wasn't strong back in those days, cuz they were...As a matter of fact, in '94 and '95, the West took it...Remember the Houston repeat? Yea, now please don't try coming up with another bullshit excuse...PeACe

lol calm down homie. it's their championship, yes. but in like 3 years shaq isnt worth shit no more. and then? walker and nash will play on quite a time, not to talk about the rookie and the sophomore. if you only look at next season, the trade is good. if you look at the next 5 years, the trade is garbage. and walker is actually a forward btw.

No shit Walker is a Forward. But like I said, I pray to God Walker never gets to wear a Laker jersey...I'd take Brian Cook over Walkers 3-point launching, no defense having ass...PeACe

ummm... ok, nobody cares about that. we're talking about today... why are you avoiding the original question? could the the lakers make it to the playoffs with their current roster minus shaq and kobe? oh, i know why you didn't answer... you don't want to admit that they wouldn't.
