Even if Phil does come back....

what can the Lakers do this offseason?  almost every player except Kobe is tradeable, but they won't get much for Odom or Butler....and no one wants Divac or Brian Grant....They have no salary cap room available to sign a top free agent like Ray Allen or Michael Redd, unless they take a pay cut like Payton and Malone.....don't see that happening....What can the Lakers do?

trade butler and others for boozer move lamar to sf sign a back up or starting center for the LLE OR MLE n then maybe we can draft JACK/felton  n  maybe after trade it for someone or maybe phil can convince someone like larry huges or  antonio daniels for a pg

WE DONT NEED NO M REDD OR RAY ALLEN WE ALREADY SET AT SG WITH KOBE WE NEED PEOPLE WHO FIT THE TRIANGLE MEANIN A PG THAT CAN SHOOT A PF THAT CAN BE A BANGER A CENTER THAT CAN BLOCK SHOTS N HIT SOME SHOTS HERE AND THERE WE SET I EXPECT A 55 WIN TEAM NEXT SEASON BELIEVE DAT

I was just using them as examples of big name free agents...

I really have no clue, man. But Phil is the first step. Personally i dont think Lakers are so bad, man. I mean they can make the Play Offs with this roster and a decent coach. Mihm, Odom, Butler and Kobe are perfect for a triangle. We need a PG and some role players. Plus remember we will have an high draft pick, probably 10th. I dont know, i'm curious. We should select a PG and do 2-3 trades trying to get a good PF.

the Lakers aren't a playoff team for at least a couple of years, no matter what

dude shut up, Boozer didn't even live up to the expections of his major contract.  They need a center that's for sure and some better role players because Chuckie and Butler aren't cutting it.

Well, Phil Jackson said that the current Laker team is better fit to play the triangle offense than any of the Laker teams he coached...So that gives Laker fans some hope, because Phil seems like the kind of guy who knows what he's talking about...If the Lakers can find a rythym with Phil Jackson then they can easily make the playoffs next year, even with their current roster...Remember, Lakers were a playoff team up until a month after Frank Hamblen took over...Phil can really turn things around for LA...Just look at what George Karl did for Denver...You just gotta have faith...PeACe

I thought you meant Phil from Eastenders

It's pretty sad that people still consider Kobe a ball-hog when he averages the most assists on his team and when it's been known that he would like for his teammates to start relying on him less and stepping up more...

WATCH OUT FOR THE CLIPPERS, I EXPECT A HUGE HUGE OFFSEASON MOVE FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!

I remember a game we've lost i think against Golden State. 5-6 seconds left. Ball to Kobe, Kobe to Walton for the last shot, Walton was scared to shoot, and he gives the ball back to Kobe. Time expires. And then they call Kobe a ball-hog! Mmmm..
