He's back in great shape and is planning to head back to the top and leave the NBA as one of the great superstars. Did anyone even read the fucking article?...He could be a great push off the bench for the Lakers, and an added big body to the big competition in the west...PeACe

Did you not see him in Orlando? He was crack free for two years or so and he played bad. I don't think you can be one of the best players in the NBA for around 8 years become a crackhead for another 8 years then comeback crack free and still play good.

Once again, read the article before you comment...Shawn Kemp was playing out of shape in Orlando. He's back in great shape and is motivated to play his best...I believe it could work...PeACe

Kemp played his best season in Cleveland...Don't get it twisted. He might be past his prime, but he can still be a help...PeACe

Kemp and Spree alone don't make the Lakers contenders, but this line-up does...
Latrell Sprewell...Aaron McKie/Smush Parker/Sasha Vujacic/Will Conroy*
Kobe Bryant...Laron Profit/Tony Bobbit*/Von Wafer*
Lamar Odom...Devean George/Jumain Jones/Luke Walton
Kwame Brown...Shawn Kemp/Brian Cook/Slava Medvadenko/Ronny Turiaf*
Chris Mihm...Andrew Bynum
Coach: Phil Jackson

Not yet, homie. Not yet. But we could start a new page in our glorious history building the new team around Kobe, Brown, Odom and Bynum. With KG we're contenders, no doubt.

Phoenix were considered contenders last season. They had a great line-up, but they didn't have a bench, they didn't have the greatest coach of all time, they didn't have the best player in the league, and they didn't run a system nearly as effective as the triangle. The Laker line-up I posted, I believe, are good enough to be considered contenders. Think about it Sprewell, Kobe, Odom. 3 All-Star caliber players under Phil Jackson will NOT fail to contend...PeACe
