I cant believe you actually think that line up will contend next season, basing it things such as Coke-Kemp maybe signing and maybe contributing, Bynam being able to do anything etc etc
You can hope for the 8th or 7th seed at the best...

Why shouldn't it? It's a great line-up for the triangle...People forget who Phil Jackson is.

Rush -> good backup SG. He already have experience with the triangle.
Eddie Jones -> Veteran experience backing up his friend Kobe Bryant.
One of those 2 whould be perfect.
Posey -> good athletic SF. Great 6th man player.
Patterson -> good defence, great intensity. You always need a player like him in your roster. Even tho i prefeer our JJ right now.
Stojakovic -> best pure shooter in the NBA.
One of those 3 would really improve us in the 3 spot/bench.
Magloire -> probably the best C in the list.
Moore -> good prospect.
Hart -> great underrated backup PG.
Rose -> best playmaker in the world to play triangle.
P.S. I chosed only Unrestricted Free Agents, cause we can really make a run for them and win it, if we have to.

Rush is at the point in his career where he needs to start in order to gain confidence and become something. Backing up Kobe won't cut it, that's why he got traded for basically nothing in the first place. Kobe needs a player like Tony Bobbit to back him up at SG, not a player who deserves a good portion of minutes like Eddie Jones or Kareem Rush.

I'm talking about Eddie Jones in 2 years. He'll be a veteran.
--- Quote ---Posey would be a nice addition off the bench. Patterson is the anti-Kobe, he's a good defender, but his attitude is shit and he doesn't deserve to be a Laker. Jason Hart can be a nice addition as well, I've always liked his style...And Jalen Rose, we already got teased this summer in a rumor that said Jalen was coming to LA. Of course, my reaction to that was positive, because a backcourt of Kobe and Rose would be spectacular...

Hell yeah. But Spree is also a good one.

He'll be a veteran, so what? That doesn't mean he needs to play behind Kobe...Only players like Tony Bobbit and Laron Profit should play behind Kobe, cuz that means they're getting no more than 10 minutes a game, which is just warm up time for Eddie...

Yup. I'd actually like Spree over Rose because of his way smaller salary and his proven work ethics...

Eddie will be 36 in 2007. I think he could play like Ron Harper, Brian Shaw and Aaron McKie, maybe even as a PG. If Spree can, Eddie DEF can. Man he used to be my fav player, lol! I just want him to finish his career with a Lakers #6 jersey.

Spree is much more fit to run the point than Eddie is...Eddie is closer to a small forward more than anything. It's just how you said "Eddie backing up Kobe"...Bad idea. Eddie starting at small forward or backing up Odom (if he's still a Laker) would've sounded better...It'd be nice to see Eddie back in a Laker jersey, but I'd prefer seeing Rush back in that 21 starting in the backcourt with Kobe, or Stojakavic coming off the bench at small forward instead of Jones, who is more of the starting 5 type. Jones should finish his career a starter, he's not the type of player who should slowly subside, but rather the type who should go out with a bang. Eddie needs to find a rebuilding team, possibly head back to Charlotte and use his veteran skills to lead them to sucess...But I'd definitely not decline an Eddie Jones return to LA...PeACe
